Daily traffic

Getting loads of views on this blog atm thanks to the London Graphics show.

HELLO! I hope you're enjoying the view.

I don't want to beg, but please follow me - it'll make me do more work! Maybe.

See, look at this completely unrelated image - just for you!

It's my party...

So, I'm taking part in a street party next month in Hastings. That's if I can get enough work together. Realisation that I've only got a month hasn't happened yet... fool.

I'm thinking of selling some prints because of the positive response I've had to my London ones. Here's one mock up. I'm not sure if this is what the Hastings crowd will go for. Here's hoping.

Oh yeah, this is what I've been working on

                                                  

This is commitment

Awful, awful week and yet I'm still drawing. Little surprised at myself. Big pat on back. Two fingers up to crappy estate agents.

You guessed it; more of the same

You get the gist..

I'm spoiling you

Think I may have gone a bit crazy with the old background. Photoshop mishaps. Must learn Photoshop.

The show must go on...

Last night was the private view for 'On Essence'. There was a great turn out - thanks peeps!

I'm really pleased with the way the works turned out, it's the first time I've got my work professionally printed and you know what, I'm gonna do more! One thing I need to work on is paper curling, grrrr. Maybe frames next time.

One conversational point was about whether I should start drawing straight onto the letters. There are many advantages to this - actually having an original being one of them. I'm still slightly scared to go all the way though. I'd be forever changing something that already has such a history, a depth. Am I good enough?...

211 Walworth Road

From the 7th-10th October I will be taking part in a group show at the Rag Factory, off Brick Lane, London. I've been making work for a couple of weeks now, eventually using some of the imagery I found from Portobello.

211 Walworth Road is a series of prints based on past and current. I have layered old letterheads and receipts from the 1930's and 40's with illustrations of current day Walworth Road. I have used the addresses from the receipts and drawn what is now in its place. This is

my way of stoking memories.
