'Home Away From Home'

Someone that I've known for a pretty long time is moving house. I thought I'd make something to adorn a wall. 'Home Away From Home'

' I Don't Like The Cut Of Your Jib'

So these are a small selection of poems/writings I have transferred into images. They were loosely connected around the time of writing so form a small collection, along with the previous blog post.

'Blame Hollywood'

New writing. Little bit obsessed with teeth and mouths. Enjoy.

'I never bought her flowers'

Just some pieces from leftovers on my desk.

Back-Of-The-Packet Calculations

I don't think fag packet warnings are serious enough. Here are some alternatives. If you're gonna warn people for the benefit of their health then at least cover all angles.

Build Up

"Build Up". Some more writing I put to an image, I couldn't help but use the image of someone falling. It's pretty fitting.

S/S/S: Inside/Outside

Works. Inside. Outside. Stay Tuned. Remember Gloves.

When The World Was Steady

Reworked this poem I had knocking about for awhile. Found this kid and thought it suited the tone. Enjoy

Drun k

I saw that girl again.

I Was Only Being Me

Made an image from some words I wrote awhile back. The title is from a conversation I overheard my friend having and the starting point of the poem.

"If It Doesn't Feel Like This, Then You're Not Doing It Right"

So on a rare Sunday where I wasn't hungover I was actually a bit creative again. It felt good to be getting back in the swing of things. I think my favourite one is the male/female triangle kiss collage. "If It Doesn't Feel Like This, Then You're Not Doing It Right".

Enter the Void

Strange old week. A tide has turned but unsure where I'm sailing at the minute. Nonetheless here is a sketchbook page.

Lets take a walk...

Lets take a walk, Hold hands, Swing from crooked branches. Shake crumbs, From a blanket made for Picnics. Fall asleep long before the embers, As the day lingers, With the ash upon my cigarette.

He Flinches Ash

"Brothers" Is a poem created over many years by my friend (and poet) Markus Lloyd. As a little collaboration I have begun to illustrate said poem. They are all available to buy as a limited print run. Currently being exhibited at aspex art gallery christmas show in gallery two "Must Have Been Something You Said" and University of Portsmouths 'For Sale 2011' exhibition.

The show officially opens this Thursday which coincides with aspex after hours event, a spoken word/open mic night which is usually pretty good fun.

"Brothers" illustrated poetry

"Brothers" Is a poem created over many years by my friend (and poet) Markus Lloyd. As a little collaboration I have begun to illustrate said poem.
They will both be available as a signed limited run print at the Aspex gallery affordable art fair in september.
These prints and initial creations are just the beginnings of a larger project and collaboration to illustrate the entire poem.

I have used various found textures and ephemera, alongside my own hand drawn images. i have also included the original section of poetry relative to each image.

I hope you enjoy x
