First Comission!

Ok, so not all these posts are gonna be in the order that i actually did the paintings, but that doesn't really matter. After gaining a bit of momentum with my pictures I got to do some cool stuff for people a couple of months ago. My uncle, who has always been a great supporter of my work, asked me to do a comission for him, he was pretty specific about sizes and what he wanted, and it had to be taken off the canvas and rolled, which was a good bit of learning

This is only a blueprint

I did this one at the same time as the last one, you can see a shift to darker colours, but i think it suits it better. I attacked this one with watercolours then put it in the microwave to try and make it look messy. Despite not being very romantic, this one was actually for my girlfriend, lol

When things get complicated a robot needs to stop

This one was done quickly for a friend again, again I was trying to break my style mould and try new things, so i used a good bit of spray. This may be the first time 'Ctrl', 'Alt', 'Del' has been used in a painting, lol

Jump for robots!


I can't remember the real title of this one, but it took ages and ages. It was worth it though, I love using lots of different patterns. I even have a t-shirt someone made of this painting, which is awesome!!

And to all the destruction in man, and to all the corruption in my hand


Again, this picture just popped into my head pretty much exactly as you see it, when i was listening to an Interpol song, from which the title is taken. I wanted to do something different again and ditched the mad colours and to do a robot in a real landscape for once. I love scrapheaps by the way, I find them fascinating

A robot can only really be saved by one other


I love to use colour, and I love any excuse to use all othem on one canvas, this is another big canvas and I spent a lot of time blending the colours together very carefully. I wasn't sure about the illustration when i was doing it, but it worked out very well and it's another romantic one, awww....
