This book came out a few years ago and features on the cover a project that Kim and I did on light drawing & long exposure photography!
Book author: John Ingledew

And I believe this went to print much more recently, design and finish by ilovedust, illustration by myself. Below is the original image, photography provided by Graphia Book

First of new series of drawings I believe

L'Etranger by Albert Camus

Read this quite a while ago and had been meaning to do an illustration for it for a very long time! Well, here it is depicting one of (many) pinnacle scenes in the book. I chose to leave the gun out of the image, as I didnt feel it necessary because for me it is the boiling heat of that day and the bottled up frustration within our protagonist which I felt were more vital in describing the scene...

The Road by Cormac McCarthy

Ive been hearing so much about this book (by the same author of No Country for old men ) called The Road The imagery described to me has been feeding my imagination aplenty and I had a bit of spare time today so I put my pen to paper and came up with this! I feel bad for drawing something Ive not even started reading yet, but its even worse when someone has to hold back their creativity, surely?

Enter the weird world of Shiro the hobo cat!

"The cat on the wall was too cool for school, and when he was cut and betrayed ice alone poured from his veins." Oscar Wilde

X Mas gift for my flat mate buddy!

The mug in the above picture is based on a design by design maverick Dane Whitehurst of the PlayCoalition He and a few other folks have been getting into the climbing scene and the appendage on the mug (which is one of those grips you get on the training walls for climbers) replaces the usual handle of your average mug! May the extreme tea drinking begin! Happy Christmas, Chums!

Portrait numero 2: Yoko et John

War Is Over

Portrait numero 1: Sun Ra

Sun Ra claimed that he was of the "Angel Race" and not from Earth, but from Saturn, (he) also developed a complex persona of "cosmic" philosophies and lyrical poetry that made him a pioneer of afrofuturism as he preached awareness and peace above all.

One that slipped through the net!

This little baby was originally planned for the Artful Dodger show in New York but due to budgets etc she didnt quite make it to the party. The plan was to have this and possibly another printed onto vinyl and then stuck onto pillars around the ILD exibition area, I totally forgot about it until speaking to a friend about skulls and this popped into my head! Cliche as illustrations of skulls are, they're a lot of fun to draw and I just can't help myself...

Thank God For Sales!

I still have no money to go buy anything tho...

Show Me The Munny

Here is a Munny I did with Ilovedust which was made specially for a talk but ilovedust head honcho at New York's Society of Illustrators it was also given as a gift to the friendly folks at Nooka Watches! Heres a link to a review of the Talk at S.O.I





Click the images to get into the detail and the story which starts from the right leg right around the front, to the back of head and then back to the front! Its my bastardized version of Odin's Quest for knowledge and power! Normal everyday shit.
