Happy Birthday Elizabeth

My sister Elizabeth recently turned 30, so I did this print for her as a present.
We used to slide down the stairs on fold out brown mattresses into piles out of cushions - it was brilliant.

Where did you go?

On Saturday we'll be setting off on tour with the Bluetones for a few weeks, so I've been working on a poster for them to flog each night. Its a work in progress, and a nod to an early album cover of theirs (as well as the illustrator Charley Harper).

Tour poster via indecision

I ran out of time and laptop battery when I was doing this poster, and I couldn't work out whether or not aspects of it should stay or go, or if it was even any good - too late now anyway, they're at the printers because we set off on THURSDAY.
Can't wait.

Entschuldigen sie bitte!

Guten Tag!In October 2008, we toured Germany for a fortnight and it was amazing... and now we're finally heading back! I've been prepping some artwork for the jaunt, here's what I've got so far:
First is a flyer for our single launch with En Transit in Frankfurt, followed by a standard poster to be sent to all the venues with a gap for any venue specific details. I should be making a special tour poster with all the dates on too, once they're all confirmed.
HOORAY!

Meet me in Montauk

This is another film illustration thats been unfinished for a while, so I've just decided to settle with it as it is. I did it all from scratch on Illustrator as a way of becoming familiar with the software, but in retrospect I think it would have benefited from combining hand drawn elements like in the Groundhog Day series I did.
Still, boss film.

Strap your hands across my engines

This is the finished print for the Springsteen tribute gig we did, encorporating the stars & stripes and some massive muscles. The gig was brill, and this years plan is to do 10 bands gigs a lot more frequently - there's possible ones in the pipeline for Pavement, Pixies and maybe Talking Heads, and I'll be doing limited prints for all of them.
If you want to buy this print or any of the previous ones, pitch an email my way!



10 Bands 10 Minutes - Springsteen flyer



We had another 10 Bands 10 Minutes gig, and this time around I made a separate photocopy-able flyer to promote it. There were a lot of details to cram in and it kind of made the colour print look confusing when I tried to include them, so having this separate one solved that problem - I also couldn't decide on an idea, and this way let me do both of them.
