This isnt actually finished, like full thing but this is the cover so i can post this as Matt is fine with it.
Its quite hard to explain the direction of this because you need to hear the CD which you can, when its out!
not got much else going on aside from this but thats likely to change.
hope everyone is well!

Whats up!!!!
Figured i would put a little print together for Christmas, if you want a hi-res of this drop me a message and its yours! Print as many as you like.
its Grinch esque i guess and sort of opposite colours to Christmas which was the point.
anyway i got some other stuff going on but visually it probably wont materialize until next year now… ill try to post some doodles.
toodles!
bloody nora, its been that long already?
Just been working on a few things really, this being one of them and it comes in two colours. down side is they sold out the week they came out. doh.
Don’t worry new batch out soon, what else is there? well working on a wicked band call the spring offensive, lovely chaps brilliant music. You can have a listen over at www.myspace.com/springoffensive. I will be working on the new album with them to be release sometime early next year.
Apart from that i don’t really think alot is going down. i might be really lame and do a Christmas montage, then again maybe i wont.
look out for Iain Mac’s don’t panic cover, i converted that thing!
anyway, talk soon
peas!
Latest bit of work, got a bit coming up so stay tuned in, congrats to both iain mac for winning the MTV playground comp and also to James stayte for getting his shirt printed on threadless.

Yep! its that time of year again, i think this is my first ever Halloween poster so i thought i best make it a good one, its for a clothing company in Stroud thats having a bit of a bash on this hallowed night.
Other than this im still slaving on Embrace the tides new artwork and also putting together a flyer for Hi-Lite windows not the most creative job but its all a learning curve.
Set a plan in motion to gain representation next year but ill report back on that later i suppose.
Best of Luck to Brian Ewing who got bitten 7 times by a Brown recluse the other day, hope the bites heal.

So, i’ve been up to the usual antics….. drawing things colouring things drawing more things buying seinfeld episodes and right now i am bloody exhausted!
This bit of art is one of my latest efforts its acutally quite along bit of artwork but this is one of the focal points of it, strangley this job and the POA job came back to back, they are both “space” related but what ever i dont mind.
I’m trying hard to keep the balance going strong, between working at work and working on my illustration stuff.
Looks like its going to be a long winter either way!
hope every one is cool
This is one of the first shirt designs that ive done for a while, its based on a godess idea but of space…. i think.
Any way if you want one head over to www.myspace.com/plagueofashitaka
and order one they are cool guys and will hook you up.
bought lots of new pens recently loveing my rotring art pen its sweeet and my new platignum studio also sweet.
take it easy

Been trying to get shit sorted this week but alas i have failed !
Coolest part of the week? Brian Ewing listed me on his blog. Sick.

Well,
its been some time since i have properly posted, things are moving quite fast i cant even fathom that we are almost in June. Seriously where the hell did the year go? I’m going to visit Boston in August have a proper look around!
In terms of work, i have a few things that ive got going …..
currently sorting a shirt for plague of ashitaka, another one on the way for through solace and under Z.I.D we are hopefully creating a set of T-shirts for Zebrahead.
im sure there are other bits and bobs but thats like current “work”
Now for something slightly interesting i suppose the work i posted before was an illustration by Iain MacArthur i have been working with him to create the Art work for EVITA, its all finished now and alot of it can be seen on evita’s myspace www.myspace.com/evitaband. I coloured it all and did the layout/graphics .
Its out July 13th and is bloody brilliant!
what else is going on?
I’m selling my BMX, i broke my ST and need to replace the clutch, well pay for the what i have replaced. Its on ebay so message me and ill give you a link. Really busy at work but met yet more cool people the creator of THE IRON MAN, did the wood cut style illustrations and also IRON WOMAN. Did some table matts for Kieth Allen umm yeah thats about it i suppose.
Go see star trek before its to late
Live long and prosper 
Joe
