Hammy Treat!

A strange one here, got asked to design a Hamster Food packet for a film. Heres what I did...

Clapton Hart

A new pub called Clapton Hart in London has recently been getting me to do some work for them.

Recent Kings Head Projects

Je regrette tout

A depressing doodle in response to Edith Piafs, 'Non, Je ne regrette rein'.

I regret everything.

Prize Pig Pin-up

Try Everything Once!

Yes.

Merri Making T-Shirt Collaboration!

A few months back, my good friends Meg and Harri over at Merri Making asked me to come up with a t-shirt in response to their logo. Exploring the idea of 'a wardrobe of playful ideas', I decided to get Merri, with all things festival-y. Pugs in baskets, tents, hoods, relaxing and bikes.

You can buy it here!

Woop!

New Do?

I've been told I draw too many pictures of people with things on their heads. Last one for a while.

The Fight!

Sometimes I just start drawing and see what comes out. I wanted to draw a chicken. Then it ended up as a boxing chicken. Then the rest just kind of wrote itself...

Baw-kwarrr.

Sound of Now!

Another poster from the excellent Kings Head, Crouch End. Went for a bit of a 50's gig poster style with this one, montaged photos and choppy block colours coupled with boxed text and differing fonts give it a retro feel.

CA$H MUN£¥

I was asked by Rescue Rooms to come up with a dollar drinks voucher for the guys from Dog is Dead, for use at their after party called 'CA$H MUN£¥'. This is what I came up with. 

A right couple of plums.

Karaoke Night!

Another flyer for Rescue Rooms, this time for a Karaoke night. Personally, the idea of doing Karaoke makes my toes curl, but I was pretty happy with how it turned out.

Phoenix Fringe Logo

Phoenix Fringe Festival logo. Hot-damn.

Dead Season

Just a quicky, roll on Summer.

Lady Liquor

Another booze related design. She's a cruel mistress.

Mariachi Wall.

One of my old designs has resurfaced recently, in the form of a wall painting. 

I did the design a couple of years ago for Rescue Rooms for a t-shirt - which is still available from behind the bar for £7. Go check it out, its on the wall between Rock City and Rescue Rooms. Big time!

Quizzically Challenged!

To date, my fourth quiz poster. This one was great fun. A quiz poster in the guise of a trashy gossip mag. Go do it at The Phoenix in Cavendish Square!

Dirty Secret DJs Logo

A logo for Dirty Secret DJ's in Crouch End. 

Shhhhhh....

Kings Head Fiver

A promotional double sided voucher for The Kings Head in Crouch End.

I put a lot of thought and effort into texturing each side just right, so that they had the intricacy of a real note. I had never noticed just how much detail there is in our currency, but then I guess thats to stop people trying to forge them on Photoshop...

Merhighs and Merlots.

A pun that came to me while serving behind the bar, turned into a kind of French Art Nouveau piece. I wanted the result to resemble a label you might find on a bottle of wine too. I also tried out some subtle half toning, which is something I've not used a lot of in the past. Not 100% sure on the final text, but I don't hate it.

Buddha and the atom

This was a design I've had in my head for ages now, just a quicky.
