Berlin, Baby!

Just got back from a trip to Berlin, I'd managed to wrangle my way into the international fashion tradeshow, Bread and Butter to have a gander at the new autumn and winter collection of clothing from brands such as Supreme Being, Lacoste, Fred Perry, Penfield, Your Eyes Lie, you name them they were all there. I went along to Germany with my buddies, urban culture blogger Thomas Pham and modern day couture artiste, Ceri who also enjoyed a trip of sight seeing and boutique hunting.

I was well impressed with amount of free goodies on offer from the Threadless stall, namely some nice badges and their own brand of notebook! I sadly missed out on meeting the artist Simone Legno who works on the Italian Tokidoki range as he was also present at the trade show but with so many stalls to see and so many people to talk to, the 2 days we were at the show just became a big blur, a tiring one at that.


Getting out of the country does something good for the soul and feeds into the imagination, whilst away I was doodling a lot and preparing myself for some big work I will be conducting for a new venue in Sheffield and some London offices in Kings Cross. These projects I will elaborate later in some future blog posts. Heres a little sketch to show you what will be coming up.

Don't Panic Panda


This took me around a week to finish off, with a lot of starting and stopping. My housemate, Mat runs the Sheffield division of Don't Panic, a quirky promotions group originally from London (you may have seen their envelopes with flyers and limited edition posters in them).

Mat's been pestering me over the year to draw a panda with a machine gun for him and so I folded. Here it is and I quite like it, even though this particular panda looks a bit vicious. I think he's going to have this as a t-shirt and he's the only one who will have the print. How selfish!

Fashionista...



Here are a few images I've been collaborating on with stylist Natasha Lyons and fashion photographer James Brown. Both of them I've found have been brilliant to work with and last night I went on my first photoshoot for the new Hantu Collection. Be sure to check out their websites! These images were fun for me to work into, it reminded me of watching "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" merging illustrative world with real, this could be something that I will explore more in the future.

Welcome To The Arcade

Unless you don't already know I'm currently residing within Arcade, a new shop on Devonshire Street. We've been opened since July and seeing things picking up recently with the students back.

I've been involved with looking after The Hantu Collective label and printing workshop in the back room and it's been fun (and a little hectic). Me and other artist Jay and Asmahan have also put our personal touch into the shop and painted the walls, drawing big has never been more fun really.
