Who knew mole’s could be so beautiful! 3 things I love; black coffee, a good quality journal and my Zebra M-305 propelling pencil.
I’ve just reasontaly finished the first stage of a website I’ve been creating for JackFancisMedia.com, who are a production company based at 3mills Studios in east London. Go and check out their site… NOW! I’ve built the site through WordPress. Before you kick off and tell me I’m not a proper web designer because I use WordPress (WP), then just chill out because I’m not claming to be anything of the sort. I love WP, I think it’s an amazing resourse for people to create great looking websites and blogs, plus it makes me feel really clever when I use it. I’m looking to improve my skills at using WP and I am going to get a few more sites under my belt in the coming months before ‘WordPress web designer’ goes on the CV.
Over the last few months I’ve really gotten into reading comic books/graphic novels, I can’t believe what I’ve been missing! This is one of the graphic novels I’m reading at the moment it’s called ‘Faker’, written by Mike Carey and the artwork is done by Jock. The new UKKO logo I’ve deigned is now available as a printed t-shirt and an embroidered t-shirt, buy one here… NOW!
Ok Ok OK!! It’s been a while since I put up my last post, and I know you live your life by what goes on my blog. It’s been as hard for me as it has for you, but sometimes with a relationship like this there are going to be times when I just can’t do everything you want me to, I’m only human!! I’ve been super busy working on d.cipher’s new books, and also partaking in a top secret project with Mika Nash (more to come with that in the next week – I’ll keep you posted… I promise I will). Here’s an illustration I’ve done for d.cipher’s ‘Pure’ colour book.
I really enjoy drawing musical instruments, it’s something I’ve done for years. When I was 12 I used to fill sketchbooks with pictures of my ideal guitars and bass guitars. This is something I am always keen to carry on doing, when I have the chance. I think it has something to do with the design details instruments have, I have a need to reproduce them an illustration – its relaxing. Continue reading Buzz Buzz»
In October I put up a post entitled England expects that every man will do his duty. This post was about a set of t-shirts I had designed around maritime signal flags. I’ve popped some of the designs onto models for you to enjoy. (I prefer to put my designs onto models, as I think its brings them to life better than a flat drawing).
This is a book I bought because of it’s cover, from HMV of all places. Looks interesting so I’ll let you know how I get on with it. I’m writing this post on my iPhone, that’s why the photo is rubbish.
Another illustration for d.cipher’s Active AW11 trend book. I’m going to be getting back onto t-shirts again soon when this work for d.cipher is finished. |

Here’s an illustration I’ve done of a 1970′s WASP synthesizer. I owned a broken one for a short while until frustration got the better of me and I sold it to someone who would be able to fix it and play it, two things I couldn’t achieve. So therefore my career as a supercool synth legend fell at the first hurdle. Because of its yellow and black colour scheme, the WASP lends itself to a t-shirt print really well.
