New Prints

I had a while ago done some prints related to my Birth of Culture book. I haven't really shown them around much yet apart from putting them on sale at the Graphic Arts Stall during Malta's Patches Market last July. The prints are basically reworks or edits of visual material related to the Birth of Culture and were printed out using the riso process by Elliott at Victory Press, who I would happily return to work with. 

The prints come in 4 varieties, are all 3-colour and A3 in size. They can be purchased for £20 each by getting in touch here. Discounts available for purchases of 3 or more prints!

Nieuw Werk / Wolken

Holy flying mackerel, that took a while! Settling in was far from speedy, but I've started doing some new work during these past few days now that the dust's settled a bit. The first few bits of drawing seem to be concerned mostly with clouds and wishy washy fluffy stuff. That might be due to the sky being a bit more visible out here in London's Zone 3 (as opposed to Zone 1)? I don't know. I like them though and I might do a little something with them this week. And while we're at it, I've thrown in a track by Shlohmo that reminds me of the white stuff. 

Time Out

Migration within London in progess. 

ALOT of catching up on projects to be done once I get the paints out! 

...if I find them, that is.

Dust, sweat and a mind full of ideas..

Work for sale at Patches Market, Malta

Next Sunday the 8th of July will see yet another installment of the now firmly established Patches - Malta's handmade product market (which is, by the way, run by my camera hugging/brush wielding sister Denise Scicluna). This will be I believe the 11th edition yet, and as much as I've always wanted to take part I've never really had much of anything to sell really. Up until now that is. 

So, this time round I'll be having a stall at the market. I will be selling some prints and books of mine but the exciting bit for me is that I will also be selling works by other Maltese (or related) graphic artists. These include - Ken Borg, Thomas Cuschieri, Adrian Gauci and Sara de la Mora. We'll be selling a variety of graphic goodies ranging from prints (riso and screen), artist and comic books, postcards, accessories etc, most of which I believe is going to have been available in Malta for the first time.

For my part, I will be having 3 or 4 new risoprints, a selection of postcards and copies of my book The Birth of Culture up for sale (see pics below). If you're not in Malta at the time then of course do please get in touch if interested in copies of the prints or the book, but for you graphic and illustration enthusiasts who will be in Malta at the time - we expect to see you there!

Update

I've been busy and it's been a while, but here's a little update - I'll be taking part in Malta's Patches market on the 8th of July where I'll be selling copies of my book The Birth of Culture, prints and other visual goodies. More info about this later..

Exercises in Style

Here's a couple of details taken from a digital illustration that I've done in the last couple of days. I don't have much of a history with digital illos as I've always preferred getting my hands dirty on a collage rather than changing the hue of a bunch of pixels, so more than anything this is abit of a test to see how my work would look when processed through Photoshop. I'm not unhappy!

Propmaking

Me and Sara recently did some props for a video by London-based songstress Carrie Haber. Unfortunately the project will probably never see the light of day, but those on top are how it would have looked like. Photos by Denise.

B-Cards

Last year while at uni I did a series of screenprinted business cards for my fledgling little freelance business. I thought I wouldn't have another chance to screenprint some business cards for free for some time, so with that in mind and blind drunk on dreams of instant freelance illustration success I printed ALOT of them. 

Unfortunately I still have most of them. 

Of course I blame these economically hard times but hey, have a look. You might like them and call me up for a job?
