BLACK HEART CLUB

2012-01-19T11:28:00.000-08:00

Arteries are a hardworking melodic punk band from Cardiff,
They wanted a simple tag style logo, that could work on a patch
and featured a heart.

They got the Oath/motorhead.

simple is solid.

Jamie fro the band is also a pretty solid illurstrator too

I inked this t-shirt design nearly two years ago for Lost Art.
I was't that into at first as i thought was a bit boring and out of my scumbag comfort zone.
i wasnt at all sure it was going to be recieved well.
Last Night the WU LYF bass player took to big screen on The DAVID LETTERMAN show
and joined the every growing list of Doormen, bar tenders, youtube rappers, students, bmxers, emo kids, kick boxers,
pit bull owners, fashion critcs, baristas, fixy fruits, promoters, gym abusers, roller bladers, bus stop dwellers, hollyoaks extras and
100% Liverpool skate rats to wear the EAZY-E t-shirts!
If i had a penny for every time..............

On that note if your in WU LYF and you'd like to commision me to do do you shirt design
please get in touch.

ROLLER BURN 2011

2011-11-22T03:45:00.001-08:00

Roller Burn went off last Weekend

in a massive metal box at Newark Showground

36 minutes outside of Nottingham.

Inside the tin of mixed meats were

Custom motorBikes, Roller skaters, free stylers, slalom skaters

middle age shredders, tattoo guys, razor scooter kids,

parents, Rock o billy greasers, gear heads, spaniards,

Americans, texans, Bmxers, beers guzzlers, 60s' garage band

fanatics, professional pin stripers, rock n roll fashion traders,

photographers, dogs and SKETCHSTANCE.

Sadley as my booking agent was away on a well earned winter escape to Monico,

i booked this myself.

This resulted in me traveling by ways of three trains, one taxi and a 7 hour return

journey to Liverpool as i had coffee duties the next morning.

As soon i set up i bascially had enough time for a beer a quick mooch

a few hand shakes then had to split with a suitcase full of frames!

It was a long mission, but not what most people do on there Saturday off.

This is what i saw...

This was SKetchStnce...

This was ROLLER BURN

ready to roll any time between 79-2012

Dave 'd.A' Arnold flying the slalom cousre.

too fast too wiggly for my lense.

cone down bro!

Im trying to set my fence up and this dude

with a speed ometer on his hemet

kept hauling MONGO at me , hucking macho

muscle vest early grabs over this box and then asking me to take pictures!

It wasnt pretty, but im too polite.

peep the compression!

Then freestyling....

My Shanty set up...

Stevie G seemed like a friendly guy.

He slashed his hand mounting his work and had to

go to hospital, what he left on the fence was rad.

chris watson

Rest of his work was really cool too.

Lotta this....

Lotta this...

this was my view for the next 4 hours..

i still have a few ROLLERBURN TSHIRTS left if anyone want to buy half price.

2011-07-09T13:15:00.001-07:00

Ive spend many a long hours rolling round distant reaches of the
earth with Sam. He's always got a new camera and i always sneaking
sly pics of something or another.
The weird thing is that i never see any of his pics, he very close knit about them.
Either his hit rate is low and most of his pics never come out or he's gonna bust out a shocking/embarassing book of drunkern pictures his taken of me in times i honestly
cant remember and would rather never known happen'd.

This however is of a guy named Dick , he ruled The Hobgoblin pub in Brighton where
we used to often play with COLD ONES.
He gave me this print in an airport at the end of a five day trip for for my birthday

Cheers mate

Chris and the Zipcodes

2011-07-09T12:41:00.000-07:00

Years ago id often see Chris in comic shops wearing a Stitches t-shirts an sporting an Adeline records mesh cap. I never spoke to him as its not cool to strike up social chit chat in comic shops but i always figured we'd defo have a few things in common as i was sure i was one of the only people in the country with an Adeline mesh!
When One man Army came through the Liverpool around 2003 me a Chris struck it off over a beers and holla's for obscure OMA b-sides.
Fast foward nearly ten years and Chris has grown from the slightly akward, new bass guy in DOWN and OUTS to fronting the latest re-shuffled incarnation of the band.
ZIPCODES to my ears and eyes is Chris's vision of playing in Gilman in the late 90's opening for The Fleshies/The Network/ The bodies/ Broken bottles/ and The U.S bomBs.

tonks a freind.
The trials of life left meant tonk and i
have never been as close as we could be,
but close enough to be on the end of a message
or on the same wave length when the subjects
bands in their dying days.
I did some work for tonks old band a while back
and promised a more personel piece.
this is painted on a piece of thin wood board used for screen
printing punk t-shirts.

mines a guiness somewhere off the radar.
