OFFSET!

I'm getting pretty amped on this festival! OFFSET is only a few weeks away now, so many speakers I'm looking forward to seeing!  Add to that I'll have the radical Hovin Wang over to torment the chip-shop staff of Bray and its all shaping up to be quite the weekend!

MIsta lova mang!

This was a great laugh to work on, I hope Gibbo finds 'the wan' now.

Wader culur

I tried out some water colour pencils for a change of approach with a portrait of me mate Craig Scott. Actually used a paint brush to apply the pencils, kinda, anyway, it was good trying a new thing, I also chilled out on the ol’ pen lines for a change too.

LA GEAR!

I'm off to the US of A in a couple of days for the International Skate Film Festival.  I just found out my Belgian hombre and star of Bertran Trichet's section in Format Perspective - Phil Zwijsen - is in town, stoked! Looking forward to some California sunshine and forming like vultorn with my fellow members of the human pyramids transformer pile!

BCN

I just got back from a really nice trip to Barcelona where we had a screening of Format Perspetive alongside a beautifully laid out exhibition of the photos from all 6 guys involved...What's more, the Cosmo gallery had Super 8 screen grabs inserted into their lampshades that followed their way around the bar, pretty stoked on this!

Format Perspective printing process at CA Gràfica

The printing of the Format Perspective photo book is currently being meticulously over-seen and scrutinised every step of the way at the CA Gràfica printing house in Spain.
We believe its best to do it right than do it hasty and so far things are looking fantastic, next stop, the binder!

Big thanks to all the staff at CA Gràfica for their cooperation and openness, see more at grupoca.com

Semester Skateboards

While frequenting a Malmo watering hole in the depths of Swedish winter last year I was landed with a decent proposal from a very tall blonde fellow called Martin Nilsson. Martin and his mates run a really rad company out of Malmo called Semester Skateboards, the team is a solid bunch of dudes, with new blood and old masters alike and a bunch of rad graphics to boot!

Anyway, Martin asked me if I would like to do a graphic for Semester, to which I was quite flattered and excited, so, y’know, I did!

Here it is, its available in Semester’s new catalogue alongside some really really rad graphics by Fernando Elvira!

Cheers lads!

Travel book

I've been travelling quite a lot at the moment promoting Format Perspective, sometimes with mates, sometimes solo.  When I find myself on me todd on a train or something I usually whip out the sketchbook and stick on my headphones - here's a few exceprts.

Waiting for stuff

I always bring some pens to the airport..

Spotted in Paris

My foot was wrecked for the Paris trip so I ended up taking in a lot of stuff I normally miss out on, good times!
