"Heroes" Mini Documentary Preview

So myself, ooh la lapin and Lee Casey curated and hosted our own exhibition a few months back in the basement of Room 237 on Elm Grove. The guys at Sock puppet productions came down and did some filming of the whole shindig and have kindly put together this preview before the final mini documentary is finished. To be honest I'm more than excited too see this finished product as this looks slick as! Anyways I hope you enjoy, and thanks again for a making it a wonderful night if you came down!

MECHA X ASHLEY

Well I'm pretty stoked with this entry. I've been rocking some of the Mecha wear for a few months back after a chance meeting with some of the gents behind it all in Southsea town, anyways conversation got onto the potential for a bit of collab work.After the Mecha guys donated me some of their old skate decks, I set about recycling them into these new creations. I tried to adapt some of the Mecha designs that exist currently as well as a nod to their referencing of "NECESSITY IS THE MOTHER OF INVENTION". I collaged and painted directly onto the decks, and tried to build the three up as stand alone pieces, whilst working as a set with the three varying colourways. I also strongly suggest you too hook yourself up with a Mecha Prang Tshirt, or tasty 5 panel that are currently on offer from the boys. All designs are limited run, and I'm pretty pleased to be supporting a local and independent outfit. Keep your eyes peeled for potential projects in the coming months. Here are the website, facebook and online shop for the Mecha team http://mechauk.tumblr.com http://www.facebook.com/pages/Mecha-Clothing/202457653130117 http://www.mechaclothing.bigcartel.com/ Enjoy

Time Is Golden

So i got commissioned to create a work as a surprise present to celebrate some oldskool family friends Sylv and Johnny's 50th wedding Anniversary. Hope they like when it arrives in Malta and enjoy many more years together! They have a strong history associated with both Malta and Pompey. I was originally thinking about referencing both places with images/items representing both places within the image. However I decided that focusing around the time, love and colour pallette of gold gave a far more meaningful image. It is after all about celebrating their time together. Absolute legends x

For A Moment

Just some experiments again, transferring some rough sketchbook scribbles into something a little more...
