Beach Break festival, South Wales, June 2010.

The sun shone for the whole time, I met lots of lovely people and painted these two big pieces. Can every summer be like this please?

Thanks to Sam at SHhhh for inviting me along, and to Lucy Blue, Matthew Callaby, Dennis G and Tom Hayden for being all round good folks with brilliant brains.

Doodlyprops to Martin Butler, Emily Bell, Sara Perry, and all the Cowabunga and Beat Redemption peoples. What a lovely bunch.

Working in Afflecks certainly has its benefits. The biggest of those is the opportunity to meet interesting creative people. People who have a much better idea of what the hell they are doing than I do. One such person turned up this weekend, Sam, who runs his own clothing company called SHhhh, have a look at his blog and also his site. Thanks to Zara, aka the Sunshine, aka the brains and talent behind Dream Factory for pointing him towards BigDoodles.

2009-08-28T10:38:00.003+01:00

These are finished and on the wall in the shop now. This photograph shows them half-done. I'll take some photos of them finished tomorrow. If they don't sell while i'm at home today, that is. Fingers crossed!

hair today

2009-08-28T09:07:00.005+01:00

It's a picture of New York, it's a picture of New York, it's a big fat crazy picture of New York

2009-08-28T09:00:00.002+01:00

I bought some of those prints of the New York skyline from Quality save, or BM Bargains, or Poundstretcher, or somewhere like that. A friend who lives in aforementioned city would like one of my pictures, so this will be for him once it's done, I just can't quite decide what to do with it. Fill in all the buildings white or leave some as they are? I like the contrast as it is between the photograph and the black and white drawings (tracings)...this is why it takes me so fucking long to do anything. Indeciciveness. Or just plain laziness. Or both. Both. Definately both.

commission finished...

2009-08-28T08:55:00.002+01:00

For these paintings the client (now that word sounds strange) just wanted me to paint my backgrounds. So, effectively she wanted half-finished paintings. Fine by me. When I took them round for her last night she wasn't so keen on the grey at the bottom, but didn't have the heart to send me back home to do them again. I have therefore agreed to go round one afternoon and work some 'nice terracotta colours' into the bottom of the paintings. Which is also fine by me, as I have been promised tea and cakes.

Since I've been doing the £10 Doodles I haven't had much of a chance to work in my sketchbook. You could say the £10 Doodles are my new sketchbook. Anyway, I was missing it, so I bought a new one.

Blackpool is officially a shit hole. We went for a day, and I did some drawings, because by doing drawings I was able to avoid all the 'fun'.

channel 4 life class

2009-07-10T13:07:00.005+01:00

Don't know if any of you have seen this (you may be at work or involved in some other useful activity at this time of day) but Channel 4 have a show called "Life Class - Today's Nude" at 12.30pm on weekdays. I watched it today, and drew this. More of this on tv I say!

At one point, the chap who presents it, and talks you through the drawing process, said "the armpit, where the body hides it's secrets". It struck me as a rather odd thing to say!

Some sketches of girls....

2009-07-07T18:49:00.011+01:00

I've been asked to paint a picture of these two girls, one has commissioned it for the other's 21st.
O, woe, what a terrible, joyless and difficult life this is...

and here are some initial sketches...

Sadly I forgot to take a photo of the finished piece, so, Megan, if you're reading this, could you send me a photo of it please. Thanks.

Neil Armstrong continued....

2009-07-05T09:24:00.002+01:00

Neil Armstrong

2009-07-05T08:32:00.004+01:00

A work in progress at the moment, 60x60cm.
I was trying to think of people who I consider 'heroes', I couldn't think of many. Neil Armstrong is pretty much top of the list though. A brilliant man; brave, intelligent, humble. The first man on the moon, it doesn't get much cooler than that. Unless of course you take into account his years of not speaking to the press, living almost as a recluse, then he's even cooler.

flourescent pandas

2009-07-03T18:20:00.003+01:00

What else is in the shop then Jimbob?

2009-06-25T09:56:00.003+01:00

Well, these two little pictures are.

unfortunately most of my photos look shite, probably on account of the horrible flourescent lighting in Affleck's. Bear with me...

More flourescent girls....

I'm also working on a larger piece, based on the line "Here's the tender coming". Can't give you any more details, it's a bit of a secret, and I might jinx myself if I go on about it!

2009-04-23T08:29:00.003+01:00

Fumbling my way into Illustrator

2009-03-28T10:28:00.004Z

I was asked to redesign a logo for a guy named Luke Davis. He'd attempted a kind of self-portrait logo, but it obviously isn't quite what he was after, so I have re-worked it a bit whilst also teaching myself adobe illustrator. It's not as easy as it looks :(

Here is the image he sent me

and here is my interpretation of it

We're Opening A Shop!

2009-03-21T19:52:00.002Z

That's right, myself and my friend Kris Kendal put a deposit on a little space in Affleck's Palace in Manchester today. We'll be selling our artwork, as well as stationary and beastly little gifts...Exciting times!

Glitter Is Litter! (sorry Emma)

2009-03-19T13:01:00.000Z

"Because of its small size and durable nature, glitter is a persistent environmental pollutant. Glitter is commonly made from[2] copolymer plastics, aluminum foil, titanium dioxide, iron oxides, bismuth oxychloride and other materials. These materials are not readily biodegradable. Being heavier than water, they sink to the bottom of waterways and contribute to toxic sludges. Most glitter is used only briefly by humans. At the end of each use it is showered off, entering waste water systems, or swept up for disposal in landfill. Glitter is not recovered or recycled in any way, 100% of consumption ends up as waste within a short period"

The Only Mostly White One Left

2009-03-11T09:15:00.003Z

This piece is the only one left unsold from my Mostly White exhibition at Odd at the end of last year. Strange, as it's my favourite. It was originally on sale for £80. I'll take £60 now as times are tough! Acrylic, pastel and ink on canvas. 60x50cm

2009-03-11T08:59:00.001Z

Not exactly the shot I was looking for, but the best of a very bad bunch. I'm going back out this afternoon to try again. This time with a little tripod. I might also try to set the camera up correctly too :)
