I am delighted to offer two more large A2 prints for sale.

The original paintings are acrylic and pencil on board. They look amazing when professionally 'Giclee' printed. The colours are vibrant and deep.

'The King' is based on a grainy old photo of the King or Rock'n'Roll himself, Elvis Presley. He was such a cool dude in the 50's & 60's and fans would go crazy just to touch him. It was a pleasure to paint and, along with the other image, was the first chance I've had to use my new pencils mixed with white spirit (blog about this coming soon!)

'Brit Guitar' was, to be honest, just an excuse to paint a guitar! I'm a real guitar nut and just wish I could play half as well as I can paint. Again, this one was a pleasure to do and looks great hanging on the wall of my studio.

If you would like a closer view of these two uber-cool prints, just click the link to my shop below.

There are a number of other paintings in the pipeline, so keep checking back for updates.

My art reaches California!

Being from the rainiest, dullest, windiest, dampest part of England (the North East) I'm used to wrapping up warm against the driving drizzle of the North Sea. California, seems a world apart. Sunshine, the Hollywood sign, Rodeo Drive, sunshine, Santa Monica pier, sand and sunshine.

Last week was the annual NAMM (National Association of Music Merchants) show in Anaheim California. The world's largest, and craziest, exhibition of musical instruments and accessories.

I have recently been lucky enough to begin a collaboration with LIBERTY DRUMS, the UK's premier boutique drum maker.

The drum above is the first of a proposed range of British themed pieces. It has been hand painted using Acrylics in a 'drip' style and taken across the Atlantic to feature in this year's NAMM show. In fact, it's still there in the Liberty Drums California Office and available for sale.

I am looking forward to producing more bespoke, hand painted drums with Liberty, so keep checking my website for new additions.

Please contact me if you are interested in a custom painted item of your own or would like to ask any questions.
