Old print, New photo 2008-04-12 15:00:50 I'm updating my website with some photos of my prints, this was originally done for Halloween.
The Hi Tide 2008-04-16 11:42:39 I've been working on a new silkscreened book called 'The Hi Tide' and this is the mockup to check it all fits together okay before I print it. The reason its ridiculously small is that I only ever buy A4 printers so when the whole stencil is printed thats how big it ends up. The real thing will be bigger.

Knowing when to fold 'em 2008-05-21 11:14:48 An illustration for the US based HHMI magazine - Howard Hughes Medical Institute. I can't remember exactly what this was about but its something to do with the bodies cells and their ability of knowing when to die or when to carry on. I think I did understand it when I did the illustration....Not light reading.

Print Club 2008-05-23 10:10:18 I've been screenprinting a print for a 'Blisters on my fingers' a show organised by Rose at Print
Club London. The idea is that 35 illustrators each produce a 50x70cm screenprint in an edition of 35, each print will then be sold for £35. The show is taking place on the 11th-13th July in the east end near Liverpool St and should be good. I will post up more info about it when I get it.
