Here is some branding & stationery I have been producing recently for a physiotherapy practise based in Hampshire. The logo had to have a proffessional/friendly feel whilst also conveying a sence of moving forward (getting better).
Been quite busy with work and feels like I havn't put a drawing up in ages. Here's a single-line drawing I did of the harbour the other day. Also recently got a copy of 'Dans anatomy' though the post. Check out his work here.
Went hunting round a few junk shops the other day. One guy was well nice and after spying my board, mentioned he'd come across something I might like. After a lot of rummaging he produced this beast of a longboard made entirely of metal. 5 pound well spent.
My mate Alex has just had a bunch of decks made for cult. Available now: http://cultskateboards.blogspot.com/ Plus my Joe Highton delivery also just came through. Free screenprint and stickers too. Stoked.
Been working on a new A3 lino. Not quite sure how im going to print this one yet but photos will appear when i do. I have also just set up a shop to sell a few elemenopee bits.
Doodled this idea down a while back but forgot to ever draw it up til now. Turned up when clearing out an old drawer and thought I'd give it another chance. It also made me realise I would like to have a go at making a stained glass window one day.
Did some more branding work recently for a weymouth-based counselling company. Flyers and business cards to go to print this week. Any info contact: info@abouttimetherapy.co.uk
A massive cheers to alex for shaping this nippy cruiser board for me. Spent 6 hours of my morning gripping it but well worth it! All hardware courtesy of longboard lounge, Weymouth.
Had a little arty trade off with illustrator Elisabeth Lee recently and sent her some of my postcards and things. Here's some of her paintings she posted me in return.

My shins seem to be taking a beating recently. Just finished putting together these stickers from an illustration I did last week. The original is below. Pretty pleased I managed it without a ruler too! Say hello if you would like one.
Finally purchased myself a fisheye converter for my SLR so more photo's to come. Also, heres a photo of a super8 I found at a car boot yesterday for a quid fifty.
Just finished the last of the school proms at work. Working alongside a professional photographer, we have been taking and speed-editing hundreds of photo's for next day availability. Been pretty manic but really enjoyed it. Here's a photo I took of some happy chappy's in a some sort of party bus. Also managed to grab a shot of the fleet at 5 in the morn on the way home after a prom at Portland Sailing Academy.

Totatally surprised to find that I have been of inspiration to Bristol-based illustrator Tom Lane, better known as Ginger Monkey. Spotted one of my screenprints whilst browsing his blog at www.gingermonkeydesign.com Be sure to check his portfolio section too as his work is truely amazing.
Took a trip to Ladram Bay the other day and it was actually awesome. There's like seven or eight stacks in total which all used to be caves and arches that have since collapsed. Never really heard of it till this week but saw a photo in Resort magazine and hunted it down. Here's amap if you want to go. ABOVE: Berol drawn stack with some photoshop colour.
