NestLie...

After their recent antics, on top of their usual bullshit, I decided to do a design for an anti-nestle piece going up soon (will update with final photos)

Back from the brink...

Design for digital prints...

Design for T-Shirts 

First post in a while, we (the TMFC) have 

recently moved in to a fantastic studio space at the ForestCentre+ in Edinburgh so

have been busy getting that set up. 

We have now settled in so expect more lovely things for your eyes soon, hopefully 

including some new t-shirts and prints featuring the design above...

Optional Death Stare Longboard Collab...

'ascension' 

'realisation' 

'oppression'

Some more Pyrography and wood stain work this time on my very own Optional Death Stare Longboard!

( check out www.facebook.com/OptionalDeathStareLongboards )

Hand pressed and shaped in Edinburgh by David 'Bloke' Lewis to your own specifications, if you are thinking about getting a longboard, he's the dude to speak to! Plus there's a team or artists and illustrators (including myself) on hand for custom graphics.

Portal...

Found a photo of this one from a wee while ago, not going into the exhibition but i thought it was worth posting regardless... 

Shapescape...

A spot of collage and paint...

Blue&Gold...

Yet another for the exhibition - been riding the creative wave getting ready for this yin!

blue/brown/gold is my new favourite colour combo i think...

Broon...

Another yin for the exhibition. Edinburgh Art Shop got in a load of this brown card, ideal for stencils but also been really enjoying drawing on it...

Sprayface...

A bit of stencil work for the upcoming exhibition. these are available in any colour of your choice (with a bit of notice)

Ply...

Been playing with the pyrography/wood stain combo again,

really enjoying building rich tones with layer upon layer of stain. unfortunately some of the detail has been lost in the photograph and the colour is not quite right (need to get a better camera!) Fortunately, you can probably see it and some of my other recent work in person at the Boda bar on Leith walk as of March, along with stuff from the rest of the TMFC in our spring exhibition.

Defbot...

Robot done for a 'Defcon' flyer with a spot of spray background.

Cityscape...

My first piece of 2013! (admittedly started last year) A cityscape in paint and posca - approx. 120x20cm 

click on the image for a closer look...

plus a couple of wee closeups

Hoody...

A spot of one-off clothing done for my lovely Zoshka's xmas. 

Hopefully have some hoodies on the way soon!

Az-tree-gra-ffi-ti

A bit of development of the tree-face idea done in spray paint. 

If you live in or are visiting Edinburgh and you've not been down New st. yet  - get on down there and check it oot! over 200ft of legal wall just off the royal mile which is unfortunately coming up for review in January 2013 but, with any luck we will be allowed to keep painting there for a while longer...

PyroBoard...

Finished pics of my latest bit of Pyrography, this time with some wood stain for added tone. Catch this one in Spectrum Arts in the Cowgate... www.spectrumarts.co.uk

Pyroprogress...

A wee taster of my latest pyrography - more of this one to come soon!

Blue City sketch

A wee sketch i did on the train - with a touch of photoshop.

 Just really enjoying blue at the moment...

Flyers...

Noticed today that I've got a few flyer designs under my belt and thought it might be worth putting them up. get in touch if you like what you see and have any flyers, posters or other design work needing done...

Aztree sketch

just a wee sketch of an idea i had while working on a live piece, gonna be developing this one soon...

Pyrograph

Here's a wee follow-up but this time done with pyrography - a technique which involves using a device similar to a soldering iron and burning into wood. sorry the pictures aren't great but more pyrography on the way as i plan to start up doing custom design on cajons, longboards, guitars and any pretty much any other wooden items - get in touch if you have anything you want systematically burned... 

1st attempt at pyrography from a while ago done on a home made Cajon (drum box)

and the other side...
