Flashback - The Battle of Brick Lane
This is really one of my personal favourites. After I'd done the Old Vic Tunnels piece, I definitely wanted to have another go at integrating my illustrations with my photography. This is the photo I ended up using, after one of my many trips to Brick Lane. I think it was one of a few I'd considered, but I found it worked best with the characters, and it's a great piece. I definitely had a few influences with the female character, mostly from Marvel. By now, everyone knows th

"Different Worlds" Opening night!
Thanks to everyone who made it out to the Two Artists "Different Worlds" exhibition at ArtSHINE yesterday! Vinh, Stuart and Girija made the day great, and it was fantastic seeing my comic, fantasy, Steampunk and Scifi art all exhibited together with Girija’s brilliant paintings! "Different Worlds" Exhibition: 1st-22nd February 3 Blackfriars Street, Chippendale There are different small worlds in this big world. Different people, different thoughts, different visions, differen

Different Worlds #3 - The World with The Interdimensional Refugees
With the 'Different Worlds' show coming up, I wanted to focus on the actual different worlds I'm using to link my work. This one is the world that links to my Urban Fantasy pieces. It's been 18 months since the first refugees arrived through portals all over the world. Since then, we’ve grown accustomed to having neighbours and workmates who would have been considered myths 2 years ago. Here, some of them enjoy a tea break on their building site. This piece is the pencil and

Different Worlds #2 - The World with The Portals
With the 'Different Worlds' show coming up, I wanted to focus on the actual different worlds I'm using to link my work. This one is the world that links my Street Art Superheroes. An amphibious creature emerged from the sewers beneath Brick Lane, London, panicking local residents yesterday. Patrolling meta-officer, Jacqueline Bambera confronted the creature, and peacefully subdued it. She announced to the press that she plans to train it to fight crime with her. A robotic te

So, what is'Different Worlds' actually about?
The Different Worlds exhibition with Girija Kulkarni is just around the corner: the 1st to the 22nd of February, with the opening night on Saturday the 4th! If you're in Sydney next Saturday, it'd be great to see you at the opening. In preparation for the show, the folks at ArtSHINE have put up a page on me in their 'Artists' section. As well as a Bio, it has my Artist Statement for the show, and images of some of the pieces that will be on show there. Artist’s Statement When

Fantasy and Imagination @ The Shop Gallery, opening tonight!
Just got some photos in for the opening night of the Fantasy and Imagination exhibition. We were busy putting it up last night, and it is nice to hear all the other artists having the same kind of neurotic conversations I have in my head all the time ("Did it come out OK?" "Have I got them level?" "I was really worried about getting this one done..."). My work's ready to go, as you can see below, and I've also put in the photos by the other artists: Laura Wellington, Robert

Fantasy and Imagination - The Croydon Wanderers
This is my last entry for Artwork of Fantasy and Imagination, the next exhibition that I'll be doing with the group I did the Sydney Comic Art & Drawing Exhibition with. The show will run from 17th - 24th December, at The Shop Gallery, Glebe, here in Sydney. Keeping with my idea of otherworldly refugees settling into everyday life, this is the pencil and ink work for an amateur team from Croydon (either Croydon near London, or Croydon in Sydney - my Anglo-Australian neutralit

Fantasy and Imagination - December 17-24 at The Shop Gallery
As you can see, I will be part of this show, Fantasy and Imagination. If you're in Sydney in the week leading up to Christmas, you should come along. I'm really excited about the exhibition: I'm really happy with the pieces I've made for it, and the other artists in the show will all also have something interesting to show. Have a look at the information and flyer below, and hopefully I'll see you there in December. Indulge in a spectacle of fantastic vision and explore the l

Artwork of Fantasy and Imagination - The Office
This is my next entry for Artwork of Fantasy and Imagination, the next exhibition that I'll be doing with the group I did the Sydney Comic Art & Drawing Exhibition with. The show will run from 17th - 24th December, at The Shop Gallery, Glebe, here in Sydney. Keeping with my idea of otherworldly refugees settling into everyday life, here are a couple of office colleagues having a chat. This will be exhibited with The Builders, and at least one other piece in the series.
