Although Iv’e been updating the image galleries regularly, It’s been a while since Iv’e posted some news so here’s a round up of the new year so far…
The tail end of 2011 saw me complete a few interior commissions that can be viewed via the new ‘COMMISSIONS’ section on the site. Expect this section to grow as I hunt down images from a backlog of CD’s and USB sticks…
‘The Field’ offices in Shoreditch…
As far as personal work goes, Iv’e kicked off the year with a series of large character work…
The guys at Peach Properties were cool enough to let me paint the outside of their building on Redchurch street at the end of Brick Lane. I decided to paint comething a bit cheeky without going overboard as It’s a pretty public spot. A few passers by demanded nipples on the female character although I ended up playing it safe. Maybe I’ll paint an uncensored version on canvas at some point.

Stockwell…

Alexandra Palace…
Southbank…
And last but not least, a recent quick ‘OTAKU’ piece along side my buddy ‘Achoe’…

I had a busy fume filled weekend and thought I’d share the results. On Saturday I painted at the ‘Whitecross street Party’ for the 2nd year running, deciding to decorate the 8 x 8ft space provided with a homage of sorts to Betty Boop, or at least her skull mounted on an ice cream cone (It makes sense to me!)
I was lucky enough to turn up early and find a great spot next to my good friend ‘DEP’. We’ve painted together a few times now and think our styles compliment each other pretty well…I look forward to more collaborations in the future.
Sunday started early with a hired car down to Ashford,Kent alongside JASIK,GFUNK and PUNISH for fellow crew member ATCH’s ‘CREATE’ graffiti jam. 90minutes of Magic FM later we arrived to find a spot worth every 80’s power ballad.
I decided to drop one of my ‘OTAKU’ pieces, bringing 2 sketches with me with a plan to combine elements of both into the piece.
It’s not often I remember to document the process of painting and although this is far from a detailed analysis, here’s my initial outline on the wall…

Here’s one I made earlier…

Thanks to ATCH for securing a great spot and hosting a great jam (not to mention pulling off his best piece in my opinion). Shouts to all in attendance. Looking forward to the next one…
