This project takes illustrations in a traditional ink style and marries them with insulting Tweets sent to British Prime Minister David Cameron. Aside from wallowing in the terrible pun of birds tweeting, the idea is to combine the modern and the traditional.
Some photos I took on a recent trip to Liverpool.
Some photos I took at the Tall Ships in Belfast, 4th July 2015.
A good event, but so busy!
Mr Crow, I have been occupied with the thought,
As to how and what I ought
To write of you for some considerable time.
You are detestably difficult to place into rhyme.
There’s no symmetrics in your feathers
Or your white-rimmed eye,
Your croaks are akin to leather,
You are cowardly mean and sly.
But when Nature manufactured creatures,
Wise she thought of all the features.
Now if her realm should all be beauty,
Who then would master meaner duty
So when you cawed far back in time,
First struggled out of primeval slime,
Mother Nature paused and said:
From this moment I declare
You will fly and haunt the air
And help me desiccate the dead.
– Jack Davis
Spaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaace Laaaaaaaady!
I had a photoshoot with actor Derek Dubery a couple of weeks ago. I created a vintage Hollywood look for some of the shots.
I’ve recently been experimenting with a medieval woodcut-style of illustrating. Here are a couple of examples.
I set myself a challenge to create a piece of American Horror Story: Freakshow art in under an hour. I just managed it.
