For the Love of Waves

I made this piece for an M & C Saatchi project they were doing with the charity Surfers Against Sewage in which they wanted a poster designed based around the wording 'for the love of waves'.

inkygoodness Beermat Character

Seems like this was done ages ago but what you see above is a lino print that i had made for inkygoodness' beermat character exhibition which was held in London not too long ago.

The general idea involved here was to produce the work onto a beermat which did have some challenges due to its scale.

But because of this using a more hands on approach seemed to be the best COA and so when with a combination of using paint, a lino print and some posca pens for added effect.

Great fun and its got me thinking about maybe doing some more hands on type of work to mix things up a bit.

Doc Louis

Majestic Landscape

Alternate Ending Piece - Well Give the Man a Hand!

Been meaning to put this piece up that i had done for the Silver Screen Society's Alternate Ending show at the Bottleneck Gallery in NYC.

Anyway here's my take on an alternate ending for Robocop while instead of trying to kill each other, Clarence decides to throw Robo a surprise party at the old steel mill instead.

Initially the plan was to make this all in the form of pixel art kind of like aping the arcade game released at the time but this changed after finishing the "I'd buy that for a Dollar' guy as it would take some time to make and that i'm still a bit new to the pixel art scene.

Personally I think that going in the direction above has actually worked better with its light hearted and playful nature.

And now, its mario's turn

Just as with the zelda items piece, this is based around the items/enemies featured in the mario universe.

(update March 2017) it's been over a year since these wallpapers were removed from my website, seems like it was not that long ago when I made this piece back in 2012 which gave it a run of about 4 years of being available to adorn numerous desktop and smart phone screens as a nice background.

I'm glad that there were people who enjoyed using these wallpapers as their desktop/phone backgrounds and I appreciate that. 

Though these wallpapers are never coming back, mostly due to their age but also (and largely) due to the people who thought it was a good idea to steal my work and sell it on whatever product they thought would make a quick buck.

 All in all, it had a good run and if you are still using my wallpaper as your desktop/phone background I hope you still enjoy it.

Zelda items wallpaper and more.

Anyone who follows me on twitter may of seen the bit of spring cleaning with a new avatar and background based on the piece above.

Digital Artist Magazine

About a month ago i was contacted on doing a short tutorial on making simple stylised clouds, since this would be my very first time of actually making a tutorial it seemed like something i could not pass on.

The illo above was the end result in where I wanted the clouds to act in a more magical/mythical kind of setting. Basically it was just me having fun.

This tutorial and more is in the latest issue of digital artist magazine available to buy now at your local newsagent or other places (including newsstand).
