Alcatraz




A Christmas present for my wife, our cat Alcatraz who passed on in 2011. He was a noble beast who left a lasting  impression on all he met (mostly with his teeth). He's the first cat I've ever painted.

Memory Layne

I Came across this Saint Etienne Top of the Pops clip from February 1993 on Utube. They were the first people I ever worked with, I did the logo behind them amongst other things.




During my last year at college,  Foxbase Alpha came out and I loved it to death. I went on an exchange to Russia late '91 and listened to it repeatedly there, it fit the dreamy noir weirdness of Moscow, hell, it fit everywhere. Saint Etienne stood out to me like a splash of purple across a sea of drab grey. They had glamour, but not the horrid aspirational 80's kind, an attainable hepness of pop culture, formica Caffs and London psychogeography. They paid off my college overdraft and gave me a real leg up.

Sketchbook pages.




























When I did Listography Music I started to explore caricature in a way that I hadn't before and found that I really enjoyed it, it's a challenge. Here are some sketchbook works. I decided to do some bands I like and some I'm lukewarm on. Arcade Fire, The Horrors, Echo and The Bunnymen & Depeche Mode. Pen and Ink.

For Students

I get a bundle of questions from students, sadly I don't have time to answer them all, though I love you dearly and really appreciate that you seek me out. The first questions came from Sophie Irving in Manchester, and following on is a compilation of other hopefully relevant info. If there is anything specific, that is not covered here that you want to ask, feel free to contact me and I'll add it to this post.
