New webpage alert!

Hello! I have finally got around to changing my hopelessly out-dated website - even though for now it is just a holding page (but it should give me the motivation to actually sort it for next year!)...The image here is a work in progress of the homepage - showing some wacky dialogue between myself and the menagerie around the chair...I hoped that the drawing would be a bit more related to the work I've been doing recently...if you've come here after following the link from my site please feel free to peruse the blog and it's archive...

This is an image I did in the summer for my friends at The Healthy Working Partnership who are working on developing a web-based tool based on healthy working (funnily enough)...They came to me for a series of drawings based around the ergonomics and set-up of a workspace...*this was rejected due to the bloke's posture being rubbish! Haha! But the style got the thumbs up...

Propstore 2009...


Here is a work in progress of my upcoming christmas card design for my friends at the Propstore of London - thought a cheesy gag was more in order for this years effort...*incidentally the ripped-off Santa Claus is apparently rights free? Let's hope so eh?

Tribute to Marc Ellerby!


...just thought I'd upload this wee strip that I did in tribute to Marc Ellerby's 200th 'Ellerbism' - a strip based entirely around himself...I decided to do it about myself rather than about him and his girlfriend - unlike virtually everyone else who posted!!! Am so glad he decided against putting Mr Sloane's effort on...

...and finally here's a little triptych with more clowns and lovers - maybe I'll get some done as prints? Hmm...

...and so...


Here's a work in progress of a series of paintings on very cheap canvases - I like them but I don't know what they're about...sexual frustration,loss of identity and dislocation I guess?

...I then decided to do a series of paintings based on still images captured from anonymous couple's webcams...I did a couple then ran out of watercolour boards!!! Can you still get them?
Anyway...I s'pose I'm thinking of the fellas like Degas, Sickert and Lautrec...the dirty old keyhole snoopers...

NEW WORK!


I have been a bit dejected of late and am disgusted at my lack of artistic updates!!! I have been keeping a bit busy, however, and this was the start of a series of weird things with clowns...

This one is a sketch based on a couple of old life drawings that have been knocking about for a few years - I thought it might make a nice print? I quite like the idea of nude clowns...I don't know why...?
