Right folks the waiting is over! Here’s our rather lovely flyer for our exhibition designed by me 🙂 Me and a few people are having an exhibition at the East Gallery down at Brick Lane, probably the best place to get bagels.
Hope to see you all there!
Well I had a right good old time at Pick Me Up graphic art exhibition at Somserset House a few weeks ago. I went along with a few illustrators which we organised on Twitter (it was like playing Guess Who.) I met up with Emma Block, Rachel Lewis, Rachel Clare Price and my uni friends (whole illustration crew) of course as follows June, Emily, Emma , Vinesh, Chrissy and the lovely Fuad.  🙂 Hmm don’t think I missed anyone out.
Excuse the crappy photos, I was way too lazy to be getting out my SLR camera which was why I brought it along in the first place.
After walking around for a while we all headed over to Nando’s to grab some food so all in all it was a great day out!
A series of work for another art work donation for the Japanese tsunami and earthquake. They’re all indian ink on Epson Archival Matt paper signed and dated at the back. I’ll be posting these out today and nipping down to the shops to buy loads of new clothes hehe. I can’t write much more about it because the organiser is currently keeping a count on the number of people taking part. All I can say is Sam’s friend from work (Warp by the way thought I’d drop that in) posted a message out to everyone. Although apparently Sam said Bibio is doing something for it….I hope my art work beats him! Not that I’m being extremely big headed. 🙂
So I thought I might as well cram everything into one post otherwise I’ll never get round to it! Mainly due to laziness. Get yourself a cuppa and some biscuits because this one’s going to be a long one…….
Like everyone else I’ve been extremely moved with the tragic events in Japan. Even though it was about two weeks ago I remember seeing the horrendous images on the news; watching in horror and feeling helpless at the same time.
Well I’m very honored to be part of Illustration Rally’s Ganbare Nippon: Japan Tsunami Appeal which hopes to raise lots of money for their Japanese Tsunami Appeal on Just Giving. I did this illustration, titled ‘Sakura’, especially for this project. It’s A4 and only £10 as well! Bargain!!! And you can see more lovely things other artists have kindly donated here. Times like these it’s amazing to see artists collaborate and do their bit. The project also got a nice little mention at Papercut Magazine which featured my print.
Okay next up is another little mention over at Akeela. I designed a banner for Junkie Lovers (the talented Anouska Smith who’s behind the namw) and she dropped my name into the interview. Score! And I mean thanks Anouska! The banner should be up pretty soon too. Worth checking out her website, lots and lots of nice jewellery……..
Right I’m going to write up my visit to Pick Me Up sometime on the weekend. Overload blogging is doing my head in now.
