Everyday folk...

Spottet a guy today that looked like this... Sort of shuffled along taking small (quick) steps, gazing into every shop window he walked by... His hair really was that long, & he had this very same expression on his face... I tried, but couldn't help starring as I walked past him...

Print Orders!!!

HI ALL! So after a whole two months or so of an insane workload, juggling two commercial jobs at once + running the 'Kids Character Re-design' project for just over a month, I'm finally ready to begin taking orders for prints of my faux Vintage Movie-Poster Artwork!

I'll be taking orders as of ***MONDAY*** & will make an official announcement in the form of a promo 'poster' which'll have all the initial details on including prices, my contact details etc.

I'm pretty excited as this is my ***1ST*** OFFICIAL print run of my own *original* artwork... I'd like to thank all those who have supported, encouraged (pestered) & asked me to get up off my butt & do this... I'm sorry it's taken so long, but as it's my first time venturing into printwork, I've had a lot to research, sort out & test regarding getting the prints to the quality I wanted, size I imagined & price I felt would be *affordable* for all; whilst also taking into account the effort & time spent creating the artwork. 

It wasn't easy, but thankfully I believe I've ticked all those boxes now, & know you'll be happy/ surprised with the results! The print quality is FANTASTIC & actually came out far better than I expected; capturing all the detail & colour values I was a initially worried may become lost through the print process (as is often the case). 

I'll leave it there for now, but bellow (or to the side) are the 4 poster artworks for sale. I look forward to taking your orders as of MONDAY!!!

Ps: *whispers* There'll be a ***£10 PROMOTIONAL DISCOUNT*** during the entire FIRST WEEK!!! So grab em' while they're HOT!

See you then,

Thanks guys.

"Legends of the American Old West" Art Book!

Hi folks! Here's another finished painting I started & completed some weeks after my last movie poster; this piece titled 'Belle Starr' (Bandit Queen). I think I made an official blog post about this particular project on my maxidoodle sketch/ WIP blog, but basically this piece is for a western themed Art book I was invited to contribute to by my pal Mike Collins! Some of you may have read me mention his name before on earlier posts, but Mike is a super cool & talented L.A based digital clean-up Artist for Cartoon Network.

The book is basically going to be a compilation of artworks by over 30 different artists from around the globe all working under the same theme of 'Legends of the American Old West'.
Here's the official post I made for more details on the project...






As well as Mike, there are some other amazing people featuring in this book also. Just to name a few, there's talented Jez Tuya, Rhys Byfield, Gillian Reid, Justin Rodrigues + much more! Here's a great post over on Mike's blog showing how the book's looking so far.

Will post up a WIP breakdown over the next few days to share my thought process on working on my piece. I went in several different directions in the beginning & couldn't quite decide where to go, but thanks to the help of my friends online who threw in their thoughts & opinions, I was able to settle with something... One thing I did manage to agree with myself on was to present the piece as a movie poster for a classic Western you might have seen back in the late 40's or so... Stemming from my Vintage Movie Poster project, it was actually more of an experiment to try out a few new painting techniques & compositional style (combining studies of a little Frazetta & McGinnis)... Was definitely pleased with the results, & the response from people on the final piece was amazing (very surprising actually). I also decided to give some shout-outs in the "film credits" to some friends too =)

Hope you guys like it also!
