The Glorious Flock at Sage, Gateshead

The Glorious Flock, the latest Felt Mistress exhibition, is now on at Sage Gateshead. 37 characters and 23 paintings/drawings. There's also a cabinet displaying displaying some of my original sketches and sketchbooks. And if you're in a spending mood the Sage shop is well stocked with FM goodies including signed copies of the book, vinyl Tippy toys, tea towels and travel pass holders.

Happy 75th birthday, Batman!

Tramline Festival Gig Poster Exhibition

My Gold Panda risoprint poster for this weekend's Tramlines Festival Gig Poster exhibition at the Millennium Gallery, Sheffield. Curated by Drew Millward and Tom J Newell. A pleasure to exhibit alongside such a great bunch of artists. All prints are £20 each and signed and numbered by the artist. Also available in my shop after the festival.

Plants!

Spent a lot of time over the last few weeks drawing plants. The more complicated the better. Lots of fascinating shapes and negative space to draw.

Brand new "Mini Submarine" screen prints

Thanks to the ever helpful Dan Berry I've finally produced my first ever screen print. It's been a long time coming! Here's the "Mini Submarine" print. It's A4 (210 x 297mm) and printed on thick watercolour paper.

There's 50 of the orange edition and a special gold edition for 3 lucky customers.

They'll be for sale on my shop from 12 o'clock tomorrow (Friday 30th May at 12 noon time). I'll be giving away 3 of the gold prints with the 1st, 5th and 15th prints sold. All prints are signed and numbered.

The Spokesmen poster

Some work I did recently for the Visible Fictions Theatre Company in Scotland.

Berlin Sketches

It was Pictoplasma last week so I had the pleasure of spending a few days in Berlin. Didn't get to spend quite as much drawing as I'd like but I did get a chance to do a lot of chatting and it's good to talk, right? Top sketch is my favourite (drawn from the window of the Manolo coffee shop). First time I've used my Dilli pen out and about. I like it!
