Eurocultured Christmas Exhibition

I’ve got a few new Boy & Cat themed watercolours and some reasonably priced prints on display at the Eurocultured Christmas exhibition, which opens to the public tonight at 7pm. There’s some great artwork from the likes of Guy McKinley, Matt Sewell, Savage Wolf, Krek and more. It runs until the 19th December and is the perfect place to pick up a brillo Christmas present for the rad art lover in your life. It’s at Unit 4A, 4 Piccadilly place – just over that foot bridge by Piccadilly station.

Sketch-O-Matic

Sketch-O-Matic

At 6pm this coming Thursday (Nov 24th) I’ll be doing my first stint in the Sketch-O-Matic booth at Cornerhouse, Manchester. Here’s how they describe the event…

“Sketch-O-Matic is a full size photo booth situated in our busy café-bar, but where the machinery should be is a tiny, fully equipped artist’s studio. You, the public, are invited to sit inside as if for a photograph and make a donation to the artist through a slot for a self- portrait. Wait five minutes (give or take) and the image will appear. It may be a pencil drawing, doodle, cartoon, collage or even word-poem. Take it, frame it, consider it. Now you are both patron and muse!”

It should be a fun event, and there are some ace artists involved. Head to the Sketch-O-Matic page for full details.

The times I’ll be doing my best not to offend patrons are as follows…

Thurs 24th November : 18.00 – 19.00

Tues 29th November: 13.00 – 14.00

Thurs 1st December: 19.00 – 20.00

Fri 2nd December: 20.00 – 21.00

 

Wedding Fundraiser!

That’s right folks, I’m getting married in a couple of weeks, so I thought it’d be a good idea to have a little last minute print sale, which you can find HERE. All prints are are super-dooper quality, printed on 192gsm archival paper, and come signed and flat (no poster tube curliness!). All proceeds will go to our French roadtrip honeymoon costs!

PS. Any orders received between August 23rd and September 12th will be shipped on September 13th.

Martin and Simon Paper Toy

Martin-and-Simon

A few months ago I did a character design and mural painting workshop at a local school. One of the pupils, Andy Barker,  brought in an ace model of a robot he’d made of one of my illustrations. He asked if he could make a template to make my cheese and grater into a downloadable and buildable paper toy. This is the result. You can download yourself one HERE
