I like images and creativity as well as my own stuff I'll reblog other things I see
Found one of my old collage pieces from my college days.
Done in collaboration with Moonko and Urban Outfitters (Kensington); Spray paint, posca markers on canvas
Batman & Friends
Wu-Tang Clan vs. The Beatles, put this together because I got wind that producer Tom Caruana was doing another mash up of my favourite musical acts. The first mixtape was awesome and so I’m heavily looking forward to hearing this one.
Designed this for HANTU Collective, I guess I kind of stole the idea from Itchy and Scratchy, always wanted to have a cartoon rat skull on a t-shirt anyway.
I put this together from my sketchbook from a while back and noticed how everyone has a kitten or a cat on instagram. I wanted to draw a hipster kitty and realised… this drawing is a cat version of me. Doh

Psychadelic Panda
I like many, like panda bears, they’re pretty cute, even for big potentially vicious, slow and lazy animals. This piece is playing off the work I did last year with my psychedelic “Tiger Eye” design, I love using loads of brash wash colours in my work even if it doesn’t really suit my classic style.
Stormtrooper
Like many millions out there I have a friend who is a Star Wars nut, he’s got the replica Storm Trooper helmets and even a full Chewbacca suit. So what do I get him for Christmas?
I decided to draw my own Star Wars inspired piece. I think he rather liked it.
I had time to finish up my Janelle Monae picture from my previous post, this time adding a body and finding the right image to reference from for the pose. Pretty happy with this.
I’ve put this design together for Hantu Collective for their new line of t-shirts, it’s based on a set of new ideas I’ve had brewing in my head for a while, I’ve always been interested in tribal masks and cultural folklore, especially from Japan and eastern Europe, somehow I’m trying to find ways to mix this all together.
This design I’ve named Sky Lord, just one of many elemental “gods” I’m designing and having fun with.
Sheffield based band, Hey Sholay have been making waves in the local scene as well as winning a poll with the NME to win a gig slot at this years EXIT fest in Serbia. I’m a big fan of their music with their galloping drum beats and distorted guitars and catchy melodies. Listening to their music paints a picture in my head of how I’d approach their artwork, even though two members of the band look after the artwork which is very fine art touching on illustrative angles.
