Sunshine + Growl's Garden

Being bombarded today by new albums from Chris Clark, Exile and Venetian Snares that Tom's been downloading (bloody pirate!). I'm crouched on the studio floor trying to make my friggin printer work properly(!) grr. Found this old image. A couple of drawings mashed up in Photoshop...

Work in progress...

This piece has been on the build for a while and has gone through a few stages. It started as a single canvas (Below). I was working with having a roughly central symmetry and divided the areas up into triangular sections...


I then added a second canvas (made from an old painting that wasn't going anywhere and seemed to share some qualities with the new one), put them side by side and started working on them as a whole. I haven't actually decide which way up the finished piece will be yet.


Below, close up detail...


I'm not sure how this will look in the end, but stay tuned for updates. :)

Chrx & Max!

A piece I did a while back with Collective-Era collaborator (and good ole friend) Max.... We never got as far as giving it a title though...

Bovine Interception!

The continuing trawl through the (wud be) classics... These are all from around about 2005...


'Bovine Interception'


'Product'


'Conflict Machine'


'(Output) Input'

Fuselage Test Sheet

A piece from a while back. Messing around with a scanned drawing, printing it over a printer test sheet and then re-scanning it.

An early inspiration...

The prints of the Japanese master Utagawa Kuniyoshi have had a massive influence on me ever since I first saw some hanging on my grandparent's wall when I was a child... I posted some examples here:

Exhibition...

A few of my things in the Collective-Era 'Chaos in the Continuum' Show at the Jam Factory (Feb - March 2009). Mostly quite old work but newly framed...
