LIGHT PAINTING TESTS

Some quick experiments I did, never used them for anything but it was fun! Made using my bike light.

Image is based on awesome film director James Cameron who in March this year went to the bottom of the ocean further down than anyone has ever been before! In a little green submarine! So my drawing is about trying to imagine what would be down there and his sense of isolation but peace he must felt as he was hanging out at the bottom of the sea all by himself!

Messed up the alignment of my layers a bit but I like it anyway and will definitely do more litho in the future it's super nice!

The two headed man sandwich shop! We always drive past this when we're going between Cornwall and Bath, it makes me v. happy!

THE CHARACTER OF THE COFFEE

Just finished an editorial photography workshop with lovely photographer Colin Hawkins which was great i learnt lots! I used Toby as my subject doing his new job at Roundhill Roastery, I wanted to capture the precision and perfectionsim of the speciality coffee industry with a clean, fresh aesthetic. So thanks to the boys for letting me into the roastery and if you like coffee try their stuff at the super cool Society Cafe!

NEW HEATHENS

Just finished this project to make a set of nine fortune telling cards which I based around good old British folklore. Bit of a mad rush putting them together but fun project to do lots of drawing and got loads of good inspiration from The Museum Of British Folklore and awesome book The Folk Archive by Jeremy Deller which are well worth checking out! Cards are a combination of gouache, pencil, colouring pencils and photography all put together on photoshop.
