Can we just take a moment for how incredible this is?! 😭🖤 A fan of my work sent this, hand-stitched a full cross-stitch / embroidery version of my Pubs of England – The Owl & Lamb! HOW COOL IS THAT?!
Reminds me of 8-bit ZX Spectrum graphics too!
Proper made my day this has! 🍺🦉🐑🖤❤️

Back to 2015 this week, some my old pen & ink work when I were deep into screen print & textile design. This one was a logo & tee for Rochdale’s own The Holy Dead... raw black & white, heavy contrast, DIY post-punk vibes. 🖤❤️

Love see my art out in wild, make my day when folk send pics! But this one’s special, hangs pride of place on wall of real Meri Nabble Nose 🖤
Her photo inspired one of first Gloamrats in Harrowden! And has been in nearly every one since.

Cankerfallow Night in Harrowden, bairns and Gloamrats out with their root-face lanterns, carved from swedes and parsnips that maybe weren’t carved at all? Tramp the slum sing strange songs, keeping the dead quiet down Gallows Bog way. 🎃

Halloween (Part II)
🖤 Keeping the Halloween vibes going, this one’s from around the same time as last week’s Alice piece, with the same pen and ink style I were using in 2016.
"Friday", one of my old horror dolls. Dark cute twist on Jason. 🖤❤️

Gloamrat Magnet Fishing In Harrowden Narrow Canal
Finally finished off this one now, I decided to rework some of it from one I posted up other day as wasn't quite happy with overall composition layout and some of story telling elements needed to be a bit stronger. Better? 🖤❤️

New prints up!
Finished off this piece today, slight change with the added moon. I thought it needed a more 2nd clear light source for the silhouetting and water below as well as the light from the dusk / gloam to the right. ALSO - Added Abner Mooring's house on the banks as it was missing. 🖤❤️

Ey up, time for summat spoopy 👻 Back in 2016 I were doin’ loads of pen & ink political stuff for screen prints, but that Halloween I fancied a break, ended up makin’ this grim lil Alice in Wonderland piece instead. Anyone remember this one, or my horror dolls from round then? 🖤 #ThrowbackThursday
