London

I somehow managed to make it to London on Thursday morning and after spending about four hours drilling holes in the walls of The Old Shoreditch with Vickie we finally got my show hung.

Here's a selection from the eighteen drawings I'm showing. . .










Fun times at the opening.

All work in the exhibition is for sale. Go buy!

Bah, Humbug!


Illustration students at Salford university asked myself and other artists' to design a christmas card for them to sell so they could raise money for their final show.

The cards are available to buy at Urbis, Cornerhouse, and Magma in Manchester, or online at www.cardboardsu.blogspot.com

. . .and here's what I think about Christmas! Only joking, I always have fun over the holiday, but I will end up skint, fat, and sick from all the booze. Can't wait!

Don't forget to come to my show this Thursday in London. See my previous post for all the details. . .

Oh, and if you like the T-shirt I'm wearing in the above picture then you should go to www.myspace.com/sketchstance and buy a copy of Sketch Stance fanzine. It's fucking boss!

Tattoos

I've recently been cleaning out my computer and found a lot of photographs I've either taken myself or have been sent of tattoos based on my artwork.
I know there are a lot of tattoos out there based on my work that I've been told about but never seen, or have seen them but been unable to photograph. I've also been sent tattoos of my work from cities across the U.S. and Europe so there's probably a lot I don't even know about. It's the biggest compliment when I see a drawing I made used for a tattoo and I'd love to see them all. . .
If anyone out there has a tattoo of my artwork please email it to me (hi-res if possible), and if you include your postal address I'll send you some stickers and maybe a zine or poster or whatever else I have lying around to say thanks.

My new exhibition Rockin Bones is set to open next week. It will also be the first solo show I've ever had in London.

The opening night is the 20TH of December, 7PM - late. Everybody's welcome!
I'll be there all night so if you're in town you should come along and get drunk with me.

I'll also be giving out free stickers to anyone who wants them.

The Old Shoreditch
1 Kingsland Road
E2

The show will run until the 3RD of February.

Lonesome Train (on a Lonesome Track)



I just made this drawing listening to Johnny Burnette, who I love!
