My work related website is here, this site has returned to more of a blog – given the increasingly fragile nature of social media platforms.
Latest posts and news…
You’d thought I’d forgot about this website altogether I know, but here is Number 23 in the apparently increasingly sporadic series of roadside photos.
Recently I was passing near to Dungeness and as Britains only desert (disputed) I couldn’t resist the short detour. After all the very first version of this website, from back in 1990… whatever, was named ‘Wilderness and Neon’.
I’m trying to track down, and willing to buy*, a copy of Frizzi 2 Fulci – The Barbican Bootleg on Beat Records Company.
I was at the Frizzi 2 Fulci show at London’s Barbican for Halloween in 2014 and it was a great night. I’ve been to a few film music performances and for the diversity of music and the musicians performing this was certainly one of the best, so I’d recommend it if you like this kind of thing and have the chance.
Why am I trying to track down a copy of this specific release and posting it on here I hear you ask?
Well the short answer is because a photo I took on the night was used on the back cover of this release (without my knowledge)
Hello and welcome to my website.*
It struck me looking at this website recently that sometimes the latest post or news item (which would normally sit about here) doesn’t always best explain this website.
So here are a few pieces of my illustration and artwork to get things started (You can click on them for more information about the image/project they are related to).
And if you would like to view more you can on the artwork page. If you like what you see there then you can contact me here with regards to one off commissions or projects.
*This was an old post that used to be ‘stuck’ as the first post on the website. I’ve tried to update the site so this isn’t needed anymore. I’m not sure if I managed this or not tbh.
“Majestic four-disc anthology of studio recordings and rarities…”
I have spent a good portion of the past month over at Hathway Creative working on creating a new website to support the release of the career spanning four CD box set for the band The Long Ryders, which was released last month to much fanfare by Cherry Red Records.
Its been a hugely enjoyable and pretty wide encompassing project and my work has included the creation and launch of a new website, product photography of the box set, some work promoting the site and set on social media and also I’ve had a part in designing and editing some videos.
Its been good fun too and its always interesting working on a project in a new area. In working on this I think I’ve mostly learned more than I would have liked on the convoluted and somewhat messy issues of music licensing and YouTube and Facebook.
Take a look at the new website at thelongryders.com which will also tell you all you might need to know on the Final Wild Songs box set.
And check out one of the videos here…
The Long Ryders will be touring Europe and the USA later in the year.
I’ve been working on some oil paintings of late, here is one that turned out okay…
I think.
