American Psyche

Nemean Obama



Been given another design project from local band Nemean. The upcoming gig in Febuary needs to attract a variety of people to help promote the band. Important to make the audience smile, hence the use of the obama water colour. Inspired by Shepaird Fairey's Yes we did, the quick mock up has some charming qualities, however I think something more visually striking will suit the bands image more so. When researching I was enlightened by the erray of imagery found within the genre of metal. Mastodon's artwork in particular has inspired this project and sketchbook work.

Dubaholic Magazine

Final Major Project - Art Foundation





The magazine is designed to promote local talent in Bristol and create awareness of whats worth seeing within the week ahead. Dedicated to Bristol's incredible underground scene, featuring Music, Art, Adverts, and Photography of the related areas.

This magazine is still in prototype form, still needing development in content consistancy. However I am really happy with the image, strongly linking to Bristol's graffiti scene. Highly inspired by Children of the Can by FLX.

MUTO



Stumbled across this insane animation. Street Art meets moving image, combining to create a visual character journey.

Winter Wonderland

The snow creates the most beautfiul setting for a photoshoot. Before any antics could begin, like snowball fights and sledging, I simply had to head out armed with my Nikon.

Nemean Promotional Poster



Currently doing promotional design work for local metal wizards Nemean. This poster was for their gig recently at the Junction, Bristol. Created using stencil, spray paint, and a little trespassing into my local quarry!

Graffiti Bonnet



Part of my art foundation project on the word 'Structure'. First time experiementing in the field of fine art, a very self discovering few weeks. Really enjoyed the freedom and range of materials to work with. The use of stencils contrasting to free flowing drip marks and parallel lines creates a new 'structure' within an already formed structure.

The A-Z of Graphics & Illustration


'S'



'T'



These 2 images are part of an A-Z book reflecting areas within the field of Graphics and Illustration. Turbo is a Parisian graffiti writer who likes to contrast ancient papers with his own unique letter style.

Copper Life Drawing



This piece was inspired by the material  of copper. Encorporating its colour and texture qualities to the life model has proved quite successful. As a novice fine art painter Im pretty chuffed with the results.

Journey Through Type



The Type reflects lyrics from the music of the late great Bob Marley. Everything within the image is created using type, even the face and hair.
