I'll have a table at the Alternative Press Fair on Saturday 1st June 2013 in North West London, see website link for full details and address info. It's in conjunction with 'No Dark Places' DIY music festival.

I'll be selling comics, prints and original work. It's free entry so no excuses!

Technicolour Fun!

 
I've digitally coloured a recent ink piece. Basically just wanted to have a bit of fun and have a bit of retro pop and crackle fun in the vein of Mike Allred and Steve Rude.
 
This will be available as a print this weekend when I'm attending London MCM Comic Con. Hopefully see you there!

Emanata - Update

 
 

A (belated) update to highlight that I've got more material available on the Emanata app.

The app is available to download on Ipad, Iphone and Android and gives you the opportunity to view and download the work of many independent comic creators, with a lot of material available to view for free.

There's my 18 page story 'Light and Dust' available to download for $1.99 and also spooky short wrtitten by Mark Kavanagh, 'The Hollows' to view for free.

Older material is still available, the first issue of 'Charlatan Tales' and also 'Random', which is available for free.

It's a decent app with a smooth interface and it does no harm to support independent creators doing what they love.

Heathen Beats

 
 
I've recently completed this ink/watercolour original piece.
 
I've got a soft spot for all that weird 70's pagan stuff such as 'The Wicker Man', 'Blood on Satan's Claw', the books of Alan Garner and Susan Cooper and the likes of recent horror movie 'Kill List'. For sheer stylization purposes I collided all that with motifs and imagery from clubland; mirrorballs, headphones, turntables.
 
 
 
 
 
Along with ink and watercolour there's acrylic and charcoal thrown into the mix. This has really wetted my appetite for doing more original pieces that combine soft watercolour build ups and strong inking.
 
The piece with a black mounting board frame is approx. 52cm x 44 cm and can be purchased through my etsy store.
