Wrapping Up

Here's the last round to a set of drawings with started out as line drawings in ink, then got an ink wash and finally some highlighting. Hope you like.

Ink Slinging

This happened today. Not finished yet, but you get the idea...

Some lines.

Here are some new ink sketches I've been working on. Part of a commission...

We're Doomed!

Right, the breaking news over here is that this weekend, my work will be on show at Oppikoppi(BEEEG SA music festival up north, for all you foreigners). That’s if things go according to plan and Murphy isn’t doing the rounds, bastard that he is.

The Pretoria based super-avante band, Kidofdoom are looking to incorporate my work into their show. The details of the execution are thankfully not my barbecue, but I know the high standards these guys set for themselves, so they’ll no doubt do the business. And then some.

Thus for those of you who will be there, make sure you get your asses to the stage where they’re performing and let me know how it went down, yeah?

So let’s kick the tired and light them fires.

No School like the Old Skool.

Here are some of the inkier work I've been up to. I hope to do quite a bit more of this kind of work, so keep your eyes peeled.

Brave new something...

Well, I know things have been a tad quiet on the blog front, but that generally means thing are going nuts on the work side of things and this is indeed the case. But progressing well and about to start a new set of paintings for the Cultivaria festival in Paarl next month. Haven't had a committed set of exhibition work since I was in New Zealand earlier this year, so it'll be good to get back on that particular horse.
There are other rumblings on the music front, but more of that later, but the rest of the year looks to be a crazy time, so tag along and enjoy the ride!

Oh, these pics are ridiculously short scribbles in my new educational endeavour, getting to grips with the digital side of things, so wish me luck with that. Or at least let's hope I have time to knuckle down and sharpen up, cos this has loads of potential for growth like some dodgy employment ad.

Lurching into Motion

Well, it would seem that things are beginning to more forward, fits and starts be damned, movement is movement, so it's all the same to me. Here are a few bits and pieces from the sketchbook, I'll wait 'til the other come to fruition before dumping it on you guys...

Roll On.

Here are two more paintings I've done recently, I'm working on some biggish competition work and all sorts of other bits which I'm going to keep to myself for the time being, but there's always eoungh to go around, so I hope you like.

Good Nudes, People!

Well, as you guys may or may not know, I've taken it upon myself to go on bit of a painting binge this coming month to hopefully up my game and generate some turnover. Last Saturday I got off to a dismal start, made two pieces I'm happy with at all, but there were a combination of contributing factors. Anyhoo, the best remedy for that is to get back on the horse and see what happens next. So last night I started painting and only got to bed at three-thirty, but I'm more than chuffed with the results, one of which I'm posting here, so see for yourself.

These puppies are all for sale(unless otherwise specified)from here on in for the next months, so keep your eyes peeled.

Right, I'll get back to it!

From Work

Wet Feet

Anyone in the CT area kows how bastard cold it is at present, but sometimes this doesn't matter, I was about to put my boots on and saw an opportunity. So i'm still barefoot, but feeling vented after some furious painting. This painting took no more than thirty minutes. The faster the better.
