Return of the Mini Randomscape

Way back in 2004 I had an exhibition at the Wax Bar in Nottingham entitled Mini Randomscapes where I displayed 60 10x10cm paintings. Most of them I knocked up in the week before the exhibition (back when I wasn't flogging my soul to the man) whilst repeatedly listening to American Idiot. Needless to say I didn't sell very many and a couple where pinched by some thieving git. I have managed to sell a few since then at the odd market and as they are loads of fun to produce, I decided to do some new ones for the Nottingham Contemporary Market. These were the ones that sold:

 

New Calendar

Once again the time is upon us to think about next year and what better way to do so than to look at a couple of pages from the new calendar for 2012. Available exclusively from Nottingham Contemporary Craft.Design Fair on 10th and 11th December for around £8. Although I'll probably not sell them all in which case if you really want one you can just e-mail me, or if I have too many left over, expect it as a Christmas present...

The time has come...

Today sees the launch of my new-look website, featuring previously unseen works, easier navigation and my brand new online shop.  

The time has come... 

My new site is also an online portfolio and, along with this blog, will be updated regularly with new work. To make sure you you are the first to see my new creations as they emerge, why not add them both to your favourites.


The launch comes a week ahead of my appearance at Nottingham Contemporary art gallery (6th August) and gives everyone the opportunity to view and/or buy paintings and prints at anytime or the day or night! 


Don't forget I'm available for private and commercial commissions in any aspect of my work so please so please get in touch to discuss your ideas.

Editorial Image for this

New Naked Man

 

Can't seem to take a decent photo of this drawing. It looks sharper in real life. I like his left Schiele-esque hand.

A bloke at work

A bloke who I work with has the most enormous shoulders. Although here I have somehow managed to make him look like a former superhero still haunted by the failure to rescue the doomed puppies...

 

On the subject of hell

John the Biscuit journeys to the depths of Hades and meets Satan to discuss the Ultimate Biscuit...

The Day I did something I said I never would...

Hell has just frozen over

The Dreadnought

The Real Rachel and Dave have a picture on their wall which I like so I did my own version of it.

Life drawing

I have been going to life drawing now for 4 weeks and this is the first time I have managed to draw the model to resemble a human figure instead of some distorted fleshy lump

The Doctor and the Mullet - part 1

The return of the Doctor....

I dislike this person very much
