Unpopular Aphorism 1


A6 silk screen print onto somerset stock.
The first in an ongoing series of things you should never say.

Haiti T-Shirt Sketch


I sent the design for the t-shirts/ bags over to the event organisers, and they sent back this sketch of a few things I should add. I think the sketch looks better than the original design, so i'm going to use a similar drawing as the actual design.

Haiti Fundraiser Flier








I have just printed some fliers for the Haiti fundraiser event which is taking place in Stroud on saturday. I decided to print the fliers onto small envelopes, so that they can be used to make donations to the DEC (Disaster Emergency Committee).
Printing more than one envelope at a time proved a bit tricky, which meant there were quite a few reject fliers.

Zebrahead





Some photos of when Joe Carpenter came over and printed some posters. This design will be available soon on a Zebrahead t-shirt.

Bigger Than Hip Hop



A t-shirt and tote bag I printed using the last of the old tub of emulsion.
The distressed type was unintentional, I think this happened because the emulsion was way past its shelf-life.

Speedball Emulsion





I recently ran out of light sensitive emulsion for coating screens. I couldn't find the contact details of the company who sold me Diazo Folex 200 emulsion, so I decided to try out Speedball emulsion instead.
It seems to work really well.
Here is a doodle I made to try out new emulsion. I printed this design with a two-colour blend... on some of the prints I added extra details with pen afterwards.

Jean Paul Sartre



A Screenprint based on a quote from Jean Paul Sartre.

Lansdown Hall and Gallery



I have been asked to design a new identity for 'The Space' in Stroud, which is being re-opened as the 'Lansdown Hall and Gallery' early next year.
Here are a couple of initial ideas for a logo, using details from the building itself as visual devices.

Employee of the Month.



A new t-shirt I have printed... the first one to come out of the new studio.

Fringe Festival




I am currently designing the promotional material for Stroud Fringe Festival 2010. I also hope to design gig posters etc for the fund-raising events leading up to the festival.
Here are some initial poster designs for the festival itself.

STUDIO!


I now have my own studio!

KNOW YOUR ENEMY


I'll probably make this into a poster, and maybe a t-shirt.

The Wave Express

The Wave Express




The people at TIDAL (Trade Injustice and Debt Action Leeds) have teamed up with Oxfam, Christian Aid, the Co-op and many others to charter a train to the climate march on December 5th in London.
I have been lucky enough to get to design a logo for the train, which is called 'The Wave Express'.
Here are some initial ideas for the logo.

Rich Uncle Pennybags



A new design for a screen print. I have printed a few onto t-shirts from charity shops, (which I plan to sell) and a few onto paper which I plan to paste up around places.

Paste Up



Pasted up the 'Still In The Ghetto' posters today. They went a bit bubbly, but I don't mind. I think they will look better when they are a bit torn and knackered... which will probably be about 10mins after we left and the kids on micro scooters ruin them.

Swing Tags



My first attempt at using the small Adana letterpress.
I think I used too much ink initially, and also the type may not have been flat in the chase.

'Still In The Ghetto' Posters





A new poster. It's a two-colour screenprint, printed by hand in my garage.
These will be going up at the skatepark as soon as it stops raining. Better copies will be printed as soon as anybody wants one.
