My Illustration on Set of Channel 4 Show 'The I.T Crowd' !

The people behind the C4 show 'The IT Crowd' asked me if they might be able to use my work (the family portrait above) for the set for season 3, obviously I said yes. It aired last week, here are some pictures of my work on set!

Sorry it took me a while to upload them, I've been moving house/moving city/ haven't had the internet.

More things to come...Including something on a Channel 4 Series!!ooh

Suzuki Den

Over the last few weeks I have been working on a commission for Suzuki at a showroom in Hackney. The client wanted the interior of the showroom to be transformed and its clinical white walls to become more personalised and urban looking, similar to the surrounding neighbourhood.


I have designed a number of images, mainly portraits, with a theme of Suzuki's history and past heroes (and a couple of other iconic motorbike themed characters including an old school Hell's Angel). I painted the images directly onto the walls, using a projector.


It's a work in progress but here are some photos of the job so far..

Bend Over I'll Drive

Flyer illustration for Bend Over I'll Drive. It's a pretty straight forward portrait of a plump, smug girl's passport photo I found in a charity shop.

Topsy-Turvey

This is the image I created for a print project set by the wonderful Jonny Hannah. A collection of up and coming illustrators worked with a University from New York to produce a series of silk screen prints responding to words typically associated with London and New York. The London based illustrators (me included) were given words or phrases for New York and the New Yorkers were given words for London.

Mine is NY Cop.

Beard and Moustache Postcard in Counterpart Zine!

This image was later featured in Counterpart DVD (http://www.myspace.com/counterpartmagazine) as 1 of 4 collecters artists postcards. The DVD featured music and videos from Foals, Dan Deacon, Mika Miko and Noah and the whale amongst others.







Do Tattoos Make Women Look Cheap?


Selected images from a series in response to the 'debate' forum on The Sun newspaper website about whether tattoos on a womans body make her look cheap and less attractive.


"I don't regret a single one"



"What sort of role model will you be for your future children? They'll get bullied
at school. What will you do then? Grow your hair to cover them all?"

"You won't see them unless I show them"
