IdeasTap is a creative network and funding body for emerging arts talent. I was asked to design their promotional poster which is doing the rounds at Universities around the country now.

Robots!

Jay and Kate Screenprints

Been working on a couple of designs today that I'm going to screenprint on Monday.

Guinness Advert

I recently spent a few weeks working at Rosco Production. I really enjoyed it and got to work with some great clients. I came across this Guinness ad on Hackney Road that I was the Producer on – it's always nice to see something that you've worked on, especially when it's 10 feet tall!

Sunday Times Style Guide

I recently did this illustration for The Sunday Times Style guide. The article was about how women expect to be lavished with compliments where as men rarely receive compliments from women – is this true? I couldn't possibly comment...

Sunday Express

A new illustration for the short story section of the Sunday Express Magazine. Out soon.

'99 Things From My Studio' screen-print

New freshly pulled screen-prints available to buy in my SHOP. Black on white or black on shiny, shiny gold!

Elle Decoration

I came across my illustrations on Earthborn Paint Tins in Elle Decoration the other day. We need to paint our garden gate, maybe I'll have to get some!

Joshua Luke Smith EP

Just designed this EP for bath-based singer songwriter, Joshua Luke Smith.

Who's in Charge Exhibition

Some of my work is in an exhibition next month at Dreamspace Gallery. Come along if you can!

Featured in Concrete Magazine this month

Check out Issue 1 of Concrete Magazine designed to celebrate creativity, specifically in East London.

Frame Mural

This week I've been painting a mural at East London Dance School, 'FRAME'. Thanks to the girls for letting me do it and for being so accommodating. I've really enjoyed it and I'm really happy with how it turned out. I'd love to do another so get in touch if you want me to paint something somewhere! (CLICK ON THE IMAGE TO ENLARGE)

AOI competition

The AOI launched a competition to promote the benefits of cycling in London. Here's my entry. I will Find out in a couple of weeks if it gets selected to be shown in an exhibition in the Transport Museum-fingers crossed!

Concrete Magazine

New Illustration for Concrete Magazine looking at creative talent that resided in London's East End. So it's Alfred Hitchcock (born in Leytonstone!), Rachel Whiteread, Dizzee Rascal and Pete Doherty. The magazine will be out next month.

Bangkok Exhibition

If any of you are lucky enough to be in Bangkok from the 15th - 30th May then make sure you pop along to the 'Primitive Nude' exhibition at Lubid Studio.

And they're off!

The election was announced last week and strangely I've found myself feeling quite excited about it all. To mark the occasion I thought I'd do a little 'election race' illustration. Who knows how the events will unfold over the coming month-the result, one way or another, could be potentially life-changing! Maybe that's a tad dramatic, or maybe not?!...

Primitive Nude.

I was asked to produce an illustration around the theme 'primitive nude' for an upcoming exhibition in Bangkok. It's called 'The Pens Of Famous Authors'-from left to right the stripping pens are Ralph Fellison, Oscar Wilde, Unknown (The Bible), Ken Kessy and Stephen King. The Illustration will appear in the exhibition as well as on bags and posters.

They Said it wouldn't work...

New drawing available in my shop! Other new work available to buy very soon-so keep your eyes peeled!

Like Mike-I certainly do!

I don't normally post other people's work on here (for stuff like that you can follow me on twitter) but I'm making an exception. Mike Lythgoe is a good friend of mine and I've always admired his work. He's just come back to the UK after a few years abroad and although he's the same down to earth guy his work has gone through the roof! This image is called Last Wish and is probably my favourite. It was a tough choice though. To make up your own mind go to his website http://likemike.co.uk/

Alphabet Posters with the kids!

Over the last few months me and my good friend Victoria Walmsley have been working with a London secondary school and getting them to experiment with typography. One of the tasks we set was to create found alphabets out of hidden letters around the school. The 3 alphabets look fantastic and completely unique. To view the other 2 alphabets go to the building a message blog where you can also see what else the students have been upto.

The Book Club

I have been working on a couple of Illustrations of The Book Club for Amelia's Magazine and here's one of them. The other should appear on Amelia's blog very soon so I'll keep you posted!

Studio things

A peak into my Sketchbook this week-Stationary, Stationary and more stationary.

Screen-printing for Japan

 Here's a glimpse at some of my designs that have just been sent over to Japan as part of the Studio Hoyes Collection.

Japan-work in progress...

I'm currently working on designs to send to japan next week. I need to get my skates on as I'm screen-printing on thursday-aaaarrrgh!!!

Keyboard Warrior

I've been working on a range of T-shirts for Torque GT. This is my Keyboard Warrior design-I'll post up some of the others soon too. The shirts should be available later this month from their online shop.

Move Your Frame

I recently designed a Tee for East London Dance school 'Frame'. It references Frames all too familiar surroundings and will be part of their new clothing range Frame Wear.






















Also a big Happy Birthday to my mum-have a fantastic day!

Building A Message

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

2010 will no doubt bring many new challenges, the first of which comes this Monday when I will begin a 3 month project with GCSE students from All Saints School, East London. It is part of a government initiative called 'Creative Partnerships' which sees Professionals from the creative industry enter schools and embark on projects related to their specialism. The Project is called 'Building A Message' and I will be working with superstar graphic designer Victoria Walmsley, focusing on typographic experimentation.
