The Owl series.

My acrylic paintings on wooden panel for an open call submission for Livingstone St. Ives

These were very enjoyable to paint. After working on a few projects really focussed on landscapes, animals and nature, it’s been a real joy to keep pursuing these themes.

People I’ve never met and conversations I’ve never had.

Originally I painted these in acrylic on paper back in 2009. I sold the originals long ago in a solo exhibition, a king with a lot of my early work.

My computer broke, and my back up drive also failed within the span of a week of each other, so I lost a lot of master files from my early work, with no hope of being able to rescan them.

Over the years I have licensed a great deal of my personal work to clients (it makes me really happy to see personal work really resonate with people on that level), so over time, I’ve had to learn to recreate these works digitally.

There is still a great deal of traditional process involved, where I will use a lightbox and a bottle of quink ink to get ink shapes with subtle texture to them, and then overlay them as colour separations in photoshop. The effect is a vivid, well balanced version of the original image, that retains my older style, of lighter washes or acrylic block colour.

I’m glad that I picked myself up and kept rebuilding after the initial technical problems, because it was devastating the time.

Learn from your mistakes, and keep moving forward. It’s only a failure if you don’t take something constructive away from a bad experience.

The cat is out of the bag!

I got to create this Magic the Gathering, Regional Championship Secret Lair prize card for pro tour 1 in 2025.

It was a lot of fun to make. It’s not every day I get to draw flaming cat fireballs.

I had the canvas gridded up ready to paint back in 2017. Sometimes it’s just finding the right time to be able to experiment. I used a flat headed brush to apply the pixel squares in thick acrylics.

It was quite a meditative process. When I draw or paint I usually focus my breathing with each brush stroke, so I have total control over the movement.

Painting process from January.

I’ve got a few other large paintings I need to share from earlier this year too.

This is based on some old bootleg toy I saw online. It had these really pleasing hands, where primitive fingers were fused into fists.

A lot of this stuff doesn’t register as pop culture to me that much anymore. It’s a strange, pleasing artefact first.
