I never posted my personal favourite of the Dancers (so far). Whoops! But while I'm planning on doing more Dancers, this is the last Dancer piece I do with photos from around Enmore. It helps that I had a great reference for this, a classic B-boy pose, transitioning from one move to another. I tried a couple of things with the colouring, mixing some of the shades in the legs.The more you enjoy drawing these guys, the more you want to experiment. So, the exhibition is over, bu

Yeah, I didn't really have any good breakdancing jokes after 'Electric Boogaloo'. I did a few different sketches of this dancer, as the pose and angle would have gotten a bit distorted quite easily. I really liked the stripe on the t-shirt, so I thought it was a good element to keep. The hair is great too (and a reminder of when I, too, had it), so it made sense to incorporate that into it as well. I had to do a few colour variations to properly get him to work. I liked the b

This dancer should look familiar to you, and if he doesn't, I've put a helpful reminder below. Yep, he's the poster boy for my upcoming solo exhibition, Multi-Dimensional Urban Spaces (click here to get your free tickets)! The show is going to be a bit of a retrospective, but the Dancers are new material that will be getting displayed for the first time at the show. In case you haven't already seen, the opening night will be Wednesday 4th September, 6.00pm till 8.00pm, at The

I've been looking forward to this for a while now. A while ago, I signed on with Great Big Canvas to make a selection of around 30 designs available as large-scale prints for wall decorations. If there's any of my pieces you've liked on here, you'll probably find it on there, along with a lot of different options for buying it. I love some of the options, even the straightforward ones, like this canvas print from Acquisition or from the Refugees. One of the most distinctive

Hi everyone! I have exciting news! Brought to you by Vinh and Stuart at ArtSHINE, my first solo show is coming up in September! The opening reception is on Wednesday 4th September, and if you are interested, please click the link to register, and come along on the night! Hopefully I’ll see you there! About the exhibition Everything meets in the city. Languages, cultures, technology, history and perspectives. That’s something that’s always made me love living in the city, and

My wife loves an Electric Boogaloo joke, and it's highly unlikely that I'll ever have a more apt time to make one. Here's my second robotic B-boy dancer, busting moves in the neighbourhood of Enmore in Sydney. Like I said before, the photos I took around Enmore will keep popping up for these. Here's a closer look at the artwork of the dancer. It got a good response when I posted it on instagram, so I guess I did something right? #finishedart #hiphop #streetart #scifi #culture

I thought I'd try combining a few interests I've already used in my art in a few different ways. This isn't the first time I've put my images with my photos, as you can see in my Portals series, but I thought I'd incorporate the Mechanical style I've used in the Mechanicals series and my typography project, and add a bit of hip-hop culture too. A well-timed photo of a b-boy dancing can be an amazing image. I found one which I thought was a really expressive pose, and appropri

Over the halfway point with the Mechanical numbers, here is number 6! #typography #finishedart #pencils #inking #sketches #scifi #robots

I think this was the last picture I made before I left London for Sydney. L'ete had made me feel that my Art Nouveau / robot idea was a good one, but I didn't think I'd completely nailed it. When I found this Paul Emile Berthon image, I knew it would be a better image to appropriate, as all of the framing and decoration had great potential for being updated. Also, it's just a fantastic image. This was, as you can imagine, a very long pencilling stage. I really wanted to appro

This week's flashback is another piece that ended up being the first in a series, Portals in this case. I remember just wanting to have a go at a traditional superhero image, so we ended up with this Man-Who-May-Or-May-Not-Be-Super, probably influenced by M.D. Bright's version of Milestone's Icon. With all the androids and cyborgs I'd been drawing, it made sense for his opponent to be robotic. I'm happy with the pencilling, apart from the superhero's right leg. I think I got
