Spent this past weekend in Bristol at Upfest which was a really great day. Due to the weather we were relocated to the inside of a garage just down the road from the Tobacco Factory. Ventzah and I were downsized a little with our space but here’s what we put up:
There were tons of great people putting up some really top notch stuff, unfortunately my camera is bust but there are bundles of photos here

Hello hello, a little update with a few things going on…
First off, got a cool little project going on with Mouldy Loaf and several local bands which I’ll post the relevant goods when available.
ThemLot are getting involved with painting on some walls at the ISLAND BAR, Birmingham so stay tuned for that.
The Skittles packs I designed late last year have been released and should be in stores soon (obviously dependant on how quick the stock turnover is and how many dusty old sweetie boxes theyve got lined up to go out next). Im real pleased with the results, its cool to think that over the next 3 months or so my drawings will be on the shelves… I think we roughly worked out that its about 4 million packs!!
Anyway, here are some flicks:
Keep your eyes peeled for the extra additional features on the big bags….
Cheers to ILikeCharacters and ShellSuitZombie for their recent little features of me!!
Thats all for now folks.
Private view of ThemLot’s James Bourne’s show is this Thursday folks, featuring work from ThemLot, the Outcrowd collective and more!
Less than 10 mins from Solihull train station… PLUS Free drinks, great artwork, good times!!
Here’s a little close-up of something new I’ve put up… Click the image to see ^^
I will openly admit that there’s no better way to start/end/complete the day than playing war via the internet with this wonderful game!!
My good buddy, Mr. Chan has added more super dooper content to his website so go check it out you blobs!!
Heard about this amazing ice sculpture one morning on the local news and managed to oggle at it a few times during my day so took a few snaps!
The ‘to scale’ scultpure, created by 15 artists over two months, was commissioned by Eden, a new tv channel devoted to natural history programming and has been on a bit of a tour to raise awareness about climate change. These shots were of its stop at Victoria Square, Birmingham.
Ben of FourDown has invited me to contribute to his upcoming zine, OFFAL. The zine will be a very limited run of maybe 100 or so and likely be available from fourdown.co.uk
I’ll keep you all posted!
