Ben Folds Five

This is the poster I did for the recent Ben Folds Five gig in Manchester. It was made into a limited edition screen print that was sold at Richard Goodall Gallery and at the Manchester gig. Really fun to do and to be one of the artists who did a poster for the tour, others been (a personal hero) Drew Millward, Savwo, Sean Mort, Brendan Dawes, Brandon Schaffer and Jason Munn. 

Thanks for looking. 

Lifetime Underground

Disorder Here We Come

Here is a poster I did for a friends birthday, it was inspired by a band called The Drowning Men, check them out they are great. They got in touch when they saw it on Instagram and were really nice about it and said how much they liked it, which is really cool of them.

Thanks for looking.  

Ben Fold Five

New drawing. 

Udder Project

This was part of a project by Tom Dorsett, he asked for submissions from illustrators and designers to fill in the pink udder outline, in the top picture. He then created a collaboration poster between the design I did and one of his own. I think the end result works really well and was a pleasure to be part of the project.

Mother The Mountain

A painting I did influenced by a Townes Van Zandt.

Lucero

Poster I did for the Lucero show in Manchester in November.

£1 Art Fair

Along with Caroline Dowsett (dowsettdoodles.blogspot.co.uk) I recently put on a £1 Art Show. The idea was to have artists and illustrators create bespoke or limited artworks for a fair and sell them for £1.
We had some really talented people be part of the show and create some amazing work on such a tight budget.

Here is a photo from the day Niki Duffy (nikiduffy.blogspot.com) on the right and myself on the left, with my work on the wall behind me.

I didnt take many of pictures but I photocopied a basic black and white drawing of a man and a woman and then drew on the photocopies in red marker making each an original and individual piece of work.

Thanks for everyone that came out to show, bought something and showed support.

We will do another one later in the year. 

Home

Here is a picture of the print I did for the 'Home' exhibition taken by its new owner Kev Boyd. Thanks Kev for letting me use the photo and having my work in your home. 

Build A Home

Here is the print I did for the Home exhibition currently on at Manchester's, The Cornerhouse.

Night and Day Window

Here are two photos taken whilst I drew on the windows at Night and Day (www.nightnday.org) the finished design is in a previous post. I used chalk markers straight onto the glass, thus the concentration on my face haha. Thanks very much to Boggie who took them and sent them to me.

New Work Up Soon

here is a little look at something new Im working on.

Thanks for looking.

White Wedding

This is a little glimpse of a wedding invite I did just with text.

I don't want to post the whole thing until they have sent them all out etc not my place to show it first, so this is all you get.

Experiment with mixing old photograph with illustrations and adding colours. Thought it would work well with the poster idea I had for Possessed By Paul James.

Thanks for looking.

Hearty Meals

This is the new window I did at Manchester's own Night and Day on Oldham Street.

Window Advertisement

I did this in the window of Night and Day in Manchester, straight onto the window with chalk markers. It was hard not being able to draw it on rough first but I think it came out okay.

I tried to keep it looking like an old advert or old bar signs and colours that would suit the venues outside.

Here's Looking At You, Kid

This is a 2 colour Risograph Print that will be on sale soon. The colour on the print is a little darker than the blue on this image, which I think looks better.

Words by Brian Fallon.

(I will try not to use Gaslight Anthem lyrics as much in future they just always fit so well)

(The blogspot address is not on the final print)

Every Thug Needs A Lady Print

This will be for sale as 2 colour Risograph print once my online shop is up.

Words by Dan Andriano.

(The watermark at the bottom of the image is not on the final print)

This was an idea for a new Book Club tshirt.

Still really like the design and would like to do something with it in the future.

Really loving skulls at the minute.

A Smooth Sea......

This piece was done on an old piece of wood I rescued from a skip.

It was too big to scan (its about 46cm X 46cm)

Need to make a better tag/watermark.
