Here's the advert that was in Latest Art earlier this week -

Long Hot Summer;

Created while listening to The Cinematic Orchestra's album 'Every Day' (which cannot be recommended enough) - Thanks to Tom for the photo ref.

Sometimes Things Work Out Different;

This started off being a piece inspired by a Haruki Murakami short story and ended up being something completely different. Sometimes this happens and is not to be feared, we like accidents round here. Thanks to Tom for the loan of his FACE.

Blue;

I was going to use this as part of another image (might still) but for the moment, I like it the way it is...

Minotaur 1 & 2;

Two versions of the same pic, because I couldn't decide which one I liked most...

Sleight of Hand;

Veniss Underground

Inspired by Jeff Vandermeer's novel;

X-Ray Spex;

Metamorphosis;

Inspired by Franz Kafka's novella;

Balloons;

Fear;

Fear; it's the growth industry of the 21st Century. This piece contains elements from a 1950's sci fi comic strip called 'Power Mad!' - sadly I don't know who drew it as artists were rarely credited back then. I used this couple on 'Silverships' as well.

Grandmother;

Not my Grandmother, I hasten to add. An early attempt at Photoshop colouring.

Painting with photoshop tweaks - Some slightly dodgy figure work on this one, but I didn't have a reference.

Beacon;

Polaroid piece

Ouija Man

Welcome!



First picture on the blog, a cheery welcome from the Ouija Man. I'm going to be using this site as an online gallery for my artwork while I try and work out how to design an actual website. There should be fairly regular updates so feel free to come back anytime.
