Blog Post: #BlackHistoryMonthUK vs #Inktober2019
Sneak peek at my #inktober2019 vs #blackhistorymonth project. 31 Black Britain’s (of my choosing), ink portraits and given a Pantone, Hex, RGB skin colour values(subject to change). Getting the values for the different shades is something I’ve wanted to do since reading @ronaldwimberly’s article and it’s harder than it should be, hence the unwillingness to post the individual pics at this point. Hopefully I’ll finish this one, unlike my #inktober2018 Wes Anderson project

Bond 25 = New 007!
Lashana Lynch as the new 007. (Not the new James Bond). A ballsy move on many levels in this climate where we hate change but complain when changes aren’t made🙄🙄🙄Anyhow, had intended to animate the holo-cube but it requires more learning, so will attempt on another piece

Crystal Calm
Been wanting to add some very simple animations to my work but bloody hell animation is hard! I’m probably doing it very wrong, spent a whole heap of time faffing about with a few simple frames🙄 maybe worth learning Premier or actually read a book?

Rutger Hauer - Pure Genius
As a youngling my introduction to Rutger Hauer wasn’t Blade Runner but the Pure Genius’ Guinness TV ads! In the best one, Hauer has a secret, and can’t tell anyone. While sitting in a barber’s chair with a hot towel pulled from his face, he insists you’ll only be able to hear his message if you’re telepathic. Then, for about 10secs, Hauer takes a long sip of his Guinness while silently staring into the camera. No words are exchanged until, with his secret “revealed,” he says, “Thank you for listening.” A classic!! Loved pretending that we understood and knew the message!

Dental waiting room wallart : Space scene
Some wall art for a dental client just before Xmas. It was for the kids section of the changing room and they had voted for a space scene. It’s interesting designing for kids because all of your clever design and art tricks are lost of them and you end delivering a very stripped back version of your desired style!!
Social media portraits
It’s always interesting when you put your art together like this. This is for #faceyourart
Happy belated #AIiensDay #Aliens40th (always late to the party) Actually forgotten that I did this Ripley piece
