New Lodger

 

My album cover for the Long Player exhibition is finished.  I wanted to work on a Bowie cover so I have given myself an impossible task as Bowie covers are already works of art.  The Lodger cover fitted in well with the work on angels I had done and has now been couriered over to the framers.  As usual my work is difficult to photograph with gold paint and the high gloss finish of the album cover sending the light all over the shop. Great list of other artists in the show include David Bray, Ray Richardson, Rowan Newton, Agent Provocateur, Jo Peel and many more show Preview night is 24th February 2012.

      

Plus congratulations to my niece Isabelle Wayling who has just had her first window display for Lancome at Selfridges that she designed and helped install for Valentines Day.

                                                                                

Long Player

I have been keeping busy working on an album cover for this exhibition.  I'm not going to say which cover I have picked but will be showing it when it is finished.  Really pleased to have been asked to be part of this as there are some really great artists taking part.

Otto Schade

I went along to the Urban Schade show of Otto Schade street art at the B.O.G. in greenwich Friday night.  His work is a lot more detailed than I had thought.  What looks like a plain black background  is actually a area of black on black type or imagery. 

Photographing this is not easy so you need to go and see it. The show is on until the 5th February 2012 where you can also find two print racks containing work of many artists at good prices.

The show soon filled up with a mix of new faces and good friends.

 

Future Art Show

This February I will have some work in a new show at the Ben Oakley Gallery in Greenwich London.  I'm not going to tell you too much about it but if you watch the video there is a small clue.  The video was filmed a few years ago when I was part of a pop up gallery for Christmas.  We were promoting the gallery by giving away original art but we were informed that we were destroying private property with drawing pins. 

Disloyalty Card

Before Christmas I got this envelope from a man in a pub.  I knew it had work by Aprovocateur inside so I made a little film as I love his work.   

A Happy New Year

This is a very large painting I am working on called Guardian Angel.  I thought I would show it to you for this New Year's post as I'm wishing for a good year with not too many crazy things happening. 

Wishing you all a Wonderful New Year

Over the Holiday season I did get some time just to enjoy home.  One member of the family that aways knows all the best places to doze is Gita the cat.

A Very Merry Christmas

Wishing everybody a very Merry Christmas
