Winter

We didnt have a fairy on the tree this year

Happy New Year! I havent had time to post anything since before christmas. Been really busy of late. Lots of freelance work and of course family stuff. I havent even drawn anything for weeks. Mostly been working on adverts and web stuff for some advertising agencies here in Bristol and my good friends and clients at Profile in Florida.

We had Gene Simmons!

Looking forward to getting back into the swing of drawing everyday (I slipped out of that a while back). Also missing BMX and the trails but I have instead been out walking on Dartmore and the Mendips with my buddies. Pretty stoked on wildlife and the countryside right now (nothing too new about that). Anyway, really amped on 2010, cant wait to get stuck in. Anyone wanting illustration work or graphics get your briefs in! I’m getting booked up pretty quick already. I’ve decided after resisting for a long while I’m going to take commissions for Tattoo designs too so get in touch. Lots of my work has been used for tats in the past but I’ve not designed specifically for it so this is a new ting. So, here are some photos and snippet from the last couple of months of winter in Bristol, mostly just crappy shots off my phone but whatever…

Cockchafer! Made me laf so it did

Christmas day. My nephew, born driver, as long as its in reverse!

I got a book of pub walks in the mendip hills for christmas so been trying a few of those out. I didnt realise how varied and beautiful the countryside is around Bristol, right on the doorstep.

Me 'n' George at Rods Pot. The mendips

Went down to Devon for New Years Eve. Toby Forte and Jess had a rad little party. We got half heartedly dressed up. Ended up in the local pub troubling the locals and being too loud. Good times.

We found this old air raid shelter on the plateaux that was used when they build a decoy Bristol to fool the bombers during the Blitz.

Inside the bunker

Cool portholes

Can I please live here and raise big cats and raptors?

My house mate Rob and I were so stoked on the snow we regressed, not by much

I think 2010 is going to be rad. Full of change, all for the best
