Print Club


I was up at the marvellous Print Club in Dalston today at a silkscreen workshop, brushing up on my poor skills from years back. It was a lovely day, very informative and highly recommended, thanks to Kate and master printmaker Fred for all the help. You can sign up for the Print Club Beginners Workshop here. I produced an A5 print in an edition of 50 which I think I'll give away with the next Peepshow Quarterly, we shall see.

YCN Library



I was down at 72 Rivington Street this evening at the home of YCN presenting Peepshow's favourite five book titles for the lending library alongside Luke Best, Andrew Rae and Chrissie Macdonald. My choice was 'Come Alive! The Spirited Art of Sister Corita' by Julie Ault. The amazing typographic silkscreen work of a Catholic Nun in the sixties. Thanks to Alex for getting us involved.

Forthcoming

I've spent the last three weeks frantically illustrating for the likes of Mens Health in the USA, The Telegraph here in London, a whole bunch of stuff for The Financial Times (including a forthcoming weekend supplement cover), some packaging for Qualcomm with MiresBall in San Diego and a cover for The University of West Scotland with Freight Design in Glasgow. Phew!

Renault Tests





A couple of many recent tests for Renault Megane (via Publis, London) that didn't get off the ground. Shame, but it was nice to carve up and collage multiple angles of cars. Something a bit cubist about it all, which I'll be sure to follow up.

September 2009

Well I finally (after two months) wrapped up on a little project with Grey in Paris which comes out later in the year (I think). Just finished a bunch of Illustrations for the relaunched EMB Viewpoint Magazine, working with the lovely folks at Morning Design. Onto a few more Illustrations in the USA at the moment and continuing to prepare material working alongside Sennep for the forthcoming Peepshow website relaunch, all very exciting.

August 2009

It's sure been a while, well I've been in advertising 'test' land for the last month or so, a few projects that may or may not happen, who knows. Time will tell. Also recently worked on editorial illustrations for Inc Magazine in the USA and The Times here in London. Exciting Peepshow news for Autumn 2009! I'm in the very early stages of working on a new Peepshow website, at the controls (once again) South London's finest web wizards, the mighty Sennep. Time to retire the old slide projector to the loft, It's worked hard for us for over four years. Stay tuned.
