Just a quick one for the end of the month.
I have done a tee for Collective Edition tees, which is shown in the COMMERCIAL section.
Also, I am currently working towards my first Solo show.
The show will be held in the Covent Garden branch of Supersuperficial, which is a really good shop selling limited edition tees.
More details will be coming soon, but here, to wet your appetite, is a drawing I am working on for the show.

Hello stranger. It's been too long.
There are updates all over! One new piece for the Guardian in EDITORIAL, a poster and a record cover in COMMERCIAL and some cards I have done for birthdays and anniversaries for friends in SKETCHBOOK, the first of which is a collaborative drawing with my girlfriend Brie Harrison.

The image above was done for a fantastic book due to come out next year i believe, entitled 'The Exquisite Book'. All sorts of different drawings by loads of different artists all join up to form a massive drawing.
It's quite an amazing idea. This is my page.
Come back soon, there is lot's of other stuff going on that I can't tell you about yet.
Also, please go and watch this time-lapse film of a drawing i did for Don't Panic.

Hello.
Not much of a change to the site this month. I have added a piece for Bearded magazine to the EDITORIAL section and here are some drawings I did for a group show in San Francisco at Giant Robot.
The theme was computer games. This is my selection of End of level guardians.
More coming soon.

First of all, I have added some stuff to the EDITORIAL section.
Second of all, I have completed and printed 'Not This World Issue No.2' which is about things that happen in a World that does not exist. I have also completed and printed 'Wonderful Words Issue No.2' which has some experiments in hand drawn type in it with some pages from my most recent sketchbook. There are only 50 of each, so get them while they are available.
Thirdly, I have started making weekly podcasts with my friend Tom. We talk about ideas and things that make us angry and then we sing songs about stuff too. Go here to look at the site and listen to us talking.

Hello you.
I have made a massive breakthrough with my SHOP.
You can now access a much larger image of all the prints. Simply go to the SHOP, click on Prints on the far right column, then click on whatever print you want to look at. When the link comes up with the details of the print, click on the image to make it MUCH bigger. You can see them in so much detail and I am very excited about it.
In other news, I am currently working on a few projects for various clients, aswell as nearing completion of 'Not This World 2'.
Also look out soon for a special newspaper edition of 'BOING!', a continuing collaboration with Andy Rementer, Alex Purdy and Luke Ramsay.
Here is a new Poster available at the SHOP section. It is a drawing I did for Human Empire.

Hello.
Here are some photos of the joyful bewilderment private view last night. All the work looked amazing, and the place was absolutely packed so a fun night was had by all.
In other news, I have just put a new zine by me and my good friend Mike Perry onto the shop section. It is full of work that we did for the 'pile of drawings' show we did earlier this year.
There are lots of very exciting projects in the pipeline which I cannot wait to tell you all about, but I just have to keep a lid on it for a little bit longer.
More son.
