STUFF
Check out my painting of the Lost Boys DVD cover. This is merging my DVD cover project with my interest in dead celebrities. Its pretty big on canvas and I used my old acrylics that haven’t been used properly since I was at art college (over ten years ago). It’s nice to do some painting with actual paint, rather than Photoshop. More images after the link:

Heres my cartoon I made which in many ways I think represents the role of the web designer:
You may have seen the incredible Patrick Swayze tattoo on the internet. Quite why anyone would get that is beyond me. But nonetheless I have, for the record, created a clearer version of it. Why not take a print out to your local tattooist and get your own version?
I am planning a proper Swayze tribute pic as he is probably one of the most significant celebrity deaths of recent times..
I have decided who I am voting for this election. I am backing the ruthless reptillian race of human eating space pirates, the Klegg. You may recognise them from the hallowed pages of 2000ad. The Klegg are space borne monstrous maniacal mercenaries who love to do battle with the likes of Judge Dredd and accept payment in the form of the Citizens of Mega City One, so they can have them for lunch! I for one welcome our new alien overlords.
This is the poster I made to go in my front window until May 6th. You can read more about the Klegg here and download a PDF of the poster for your window here.
I am an artist, designer and blogger based in Oxford, UK. This blog is the online staging post for my latest news, artwork and thoughts.
