Blah blah New Picture

Self portrait. 9th Century Celtic style. With a chinese style sig.

Painter, Photoshop, too much time to kill, and a mouse.
I'm not actually this good looking.

Nurse says I must take my meds now.

Woo Hoo

Some kind of bogeyman, wearing trainers, in some kind of Hell.
Looks very Web 2.0, if you ask me.

Washing clothes.

This is how I do it - no, really : I wash most of my stuff by hand.
Got into the habit when I was living in a kind-of squat, it has a nice zen vibe to it.

Beautiful woman.
Oil Pastels, difficult to work with, but well worth the effort.

The pastels, not the woman. Heh.


I think she used to sing with Portishead or summat - anyway, disnae matter, she is gorgeous.

Pretend surprised.

Wrapping paper, acrylics and varnish.
(The varnish darkens the paper, and brings out the white. It's a magical process)


I got a lot of mileage out of that piece of wrapping paper.

Lots of different paints and inks on an inside out cereal packet (probably).

Some arrogant West-Coast rapper from the 90's. With a mullet.
Does anyone recognise him ? Ice something or other.

Father and child.

Ink pen, brush and water. 1990.


Kinda looks like the East-African father of a future United States President, but I do tend to let my imagination run away with me.

(In 1990, when I did this, Obama was editor of the Harvard Law Review. I'd never heard of the guy - but then, neither had you.)

Phillippe O'Sphere

Looking vaguely into the distance, wi'that L'Oreal "je le vaux bien" windswept look - it's a French philosopher !

Happy Devil.

Cheap wrapping paper, acrylics, diluted wood varnish.


Here's a devil I did way back when.
I've miraculously been sent some of my old stuff that I thought lost forever.
So I'll be posting some of it here.

Edit : it's Irvine Welsh. With Horns.

Tiger for Arthur

Cheap wax crayons on crappy printer paper.


Back by popular demand.
Well, Tom, if you must know.
When are you going to reactivate your own, excellent, blog, Tom ?

Anyroad, this is a tiger I drew to amuse a ketje.

Noël, Noël.

Pencil, paper, coffeeNoël Coward, looking fabulous.

We All Have Bad Days

Pencil, paper, Flash for vectorising.

It's a tough job, but someone's got to do it...

Marker, various inkpens, wax-crayon, coffee, coloured pencils and photoshop, for the sig. Guy Verhofstadt, ruthless, schizoid dictator of Belgium.

Ugly

Pentel, felt-tip pen, another beer-coaster."Ugly ? Beautiful ? Who can say ?"
If you say it in the manner of that ditzy secretary out of AbFab, it can be moderately comical.

Scrumpy, saving the planet.

Pencil, pen, beercoaster.
One tree at a time. Or fox.

Note that the sign-staff is made of dead tree.

Boots are made of renewable roadkill, hand-stitched with biological hemp by-product from his friend, Dave.
