ABORTED Baphomet

My new piece for the amazing guys in Aborted. As requested I have changed the colours for them but for my portfolio have show the original colours.

Disturbia

Its that time of year again where I have forgotten to post Disturbias last season and I only remember to do so as I start next seasons. I am looking forward to the new stuff so much I need a sit down.

NINE LIVES

I was asked by a good friend of mine to produce a tee for him last year and his new line. I asked what the brief was and he simply said 'cat'. So here is a black cat sat on a bat. Go get your now: STORE.

She Is Dead

A recent drawing I did for a client released as a limited edition 2 colour poster. I love taking time away from the computer to make these posters, something physical to smell and taste and hold and its great to see your own work printed as I so rarely get to see any of my work printed. All posters are sold out now- I usually put a few APs out now and then if there are any available though.

A Shrine For You.

I have so much work I haven't posted, I am slowly getting through it all. I was considering a new poster soon and stumbled across this. I am still in love with the use of beads and jewels and haven't quite nailed it personally but I feel I will soon. For now I hope you enjoy this.

Miles To Go

Its been a long while since working with Greg and jumped at the chance to do so. Gregs line  Miles To Go is one of the best lines out there for uncompromised ethos and vision; his love of reading is unparallelled, maybe by only those I do not know. Greg asked me to pick some of my favourite books so I chose: Notes From The House Of the Dead (which is my own bastardized version of the many names its been published as) by Fyodor Dostoevsky and The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka which I have to admit is a book I have started many many times and never finished mainly to it being too depressing for me. Either way go visit Miles To Go for some amazing designs by some amazing artists based on some great reads: Miles To Go

Front Magazine

For Front for a show with Mr Gauky, Thew, Pete Fowler, French and many more- check the blog for more details.

Spider Baby

My first 4 colour screen print in nearly one year: A limited edition of 50 posters, 18x24 inches. Printed on 100lb white cougar paper by Valhalla and available now from the online store. Signed and Numbered. One per household please.

 

Mycelia

Mycelia approached me to do a 'space scene' and I loved the idea. Having already tackled it in a study I did both for a screen printing exercise and Sonisphere festival I felt I would like to revisit the idea. Its a pretty popular idea but that should never stop you from doing anything, ask Johnny Cash (NINs Hurt). I loved using a famous and much loved photo as a reference and obvious nod then putting a GM skull inside, and a big thrill using all those space brushes I had been saving for years.

Disturbia

As I set to work on the last of the new Disturbia range I realise I have yet to post out last seasons work. I love working with these guys and you are probably sick of hearing me say it, but tough. I love Franks ideas and how he allows me to get on with it, I always seem to do some of my best work for him.

I love this one- Disturbia are well know for 'Subverting popular culture', and with this piece Frank send me a clip of a music video he loved from a while back of this skull pilot. This pilot though is on a mission from logic and religion is trying to thwart his efforts!!

For this piece Frank suggested this idea of 'a magpie collecting jewels and bones, I jumped at the chance and nearly bit his fingers off to let me do a one colour piece like my posters. Which we also planned to do, and did, and came out great.

Ft this one Frank talked about Ophelia and I was nervous at first at how to approach this; from the side, from an angle, from above, how to show water with a limited colour palette etc. I stayed away from textures on this one and left it alone figuring it needed some grace.

Pen Studies

Its been a long time since I took pen to paper. A while back I found this Chinese book with all the pages falling out, the book fascinated me and I considered it for a long time. I decided to stain the pages and see if I could draw on then. With a chai tea and a fine line pen I have been enjoying making this small pictures for a few months now. Here is just one of them, the rest can be found in the store.

This Is Hate City

Had an email from a great band in Jo-Burg a while back to create an album cover, After a few discussions we arrived at something that wasnt so 'city' as we thought this may be too obvious, but we still put the Jo-burg skyline in the background and talked about the animals in Africa. Good guys and great band. The spaces on the cover are for more text which we put on later.

Disturbia Magpie

From Disturbias summer season they asked me to produce some pieces to go with the theme Dead Empires, one idea was a magpie hording jewels and bones, and this is what I came up with. We were both thrilled with the final piece as were Distubia fans so we decided to print off a few posters, and they are finally here: Limited Edition of 50. One colour. 17.7 x 25.1". Black Vanguard card 300 microns. Screen printed by me and signed and numbered. I have a varient for sale (50) and Disturbia have the original (45). Click here to buy: SHOP

Cthulhu for Nakatomi

When Nakatomi asked me to produce a poster for them I immediately said yes. Asked to produce something with Lovecraft in mind I went for the obvious, Our Lord himself. These are available now as a limited edition 7 colour print, 16x24, only 150 printed with 50 being shipped to me and 100 available right now over at Nakatomi Store

.

King of the Rotten

Been getting busy at the Haus of Godmachine studio recently while we had an open studio and while I was there I spent the night making these beauties: Limited Edition of 40, Hand screen printed by artist. , Numbered and signed by hand. , Size: 458mm x 640mm , Printed on Black 270gsm , Free sticker with each order. Get them now at the STORE

Beneath

This is another oldy, so busy right now I am failing to post enough work. Good guys to work with, after a few chats just let me do my own thing and they really liked it.

New Art Prints

Been working away on various projects that have afforded me time to pursue some ideas I have had for a long time now and finally after many months can now release them. These are Limited Edition of only 20 Giclee Art Prints, A2 (16.54 × 23.39 inches), 280gsm,  printed on archival- acid free soft white cotton. Signed and numbered and sent with a free sticker. Once these are gone they will never be printed again. Check the store for the other prints: STORE

Disturbia

The new Disturbia range is out and I suggest you head on over and see what they have- they have a lot! The girls vests are unreal!!! For this piece Frank wanted a Samurai, having already done a few this time I wanted it to be more 'Blade Runnery' and futuristic/neon..ish...The writing at the bottom does indeed say 'Disturbia'.

Zombie Liquorice

This is my depiction of the brief "Grim Reaper". I like to imagine things aren't always what you expect them to be. I imagine the grim reaper is a very pained person that doesn't really have any concept of death and death is not his doing but rather his to deal with. It probably upsets him each single time.

Arusha Accord

The guys of Arusha Accord asked me to draw my idea of 'a fallen king'. I loved the idea and wanted to do something big bold and simple, but do it well. Originally we intended to give the guy rings on his fingers but decided that as I love doing hands, the hands looked to gnarly to cover up. This is King of the Rotten.

Dark Roast

My second tee to follow up the sell out 'speak of the Devil' Box set. This time taking my inspiration from Ministrys Psalm 69, lots of coffee, conversations about hell and trying new things with my art, the result: A Limited Edition T-shirt in a coffee bag sealed and stamped. Each one is hand numbered and comes with a free sticker- all in a brown paper coffee bag. Enjoy, Darkly Roasted. These go fast so click the pic to get your now.

Troma / Class of Nuke Em High / Skuzzels

The guys over at skuzzels teamed up with Troma and wanted to do some posters- of course they asked yours truly. It was such an honour to work on this project and we had loads of fun doing it and revisited all the great films that Troma made when I was young and are still making today.
I am selling the very limited variant and its available over at my store right now. Click the image or the link above.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre

I was asked by the amazing Fright Rags to produce a poster for a special edition sale they were having for mailing list members only. The poster they sold (limited to 250 on 80gsm) were signed by Gunnar Hanson himself and are available from Fright Rags now- go get them while you still can!! I was given permission to print a very limited few for fans and collectors; 50 giclees art prints are available now over at my store signed and numbered by me.

Dead Reckoning

The prints I did with the Dead Sea Mob for our Newcastle show at the Pure Gallery are now avalaible. Limited editions of only 10 each. Giclee art print. A2. Signed and Numbered. Available at the store now.

Disturbia

I cant tell you how much I enjoy working for Frank and Helen, they are great friends and very creative. Disturbia is one of the great companies out there that manage to balance underground popularity with overground success. Some people don't need to beg for attention to achieve success, some do it quietly and well just by doing it. This is last seasons design and one of my faves, I dont know why I haven't posted it- same with a million others...

Superdead- street trash

After the successful launch of their first 3 decks Superdead returned to ask if I would like to produce a trydich set for them based on the super trash B-movie: Street Trash. I jumped at the chance. Also producing work for them is my mate and super talented Mr Gauky. Go see if you can find them and buy all three decks, wheels and tees we did for them:

Pretty Dead

A long while back Eric asked me to produce a design for Zombie. She has finally arrived. I feel I have to mention this because its a bit jaw dropping- Eric is selling these for only $13. I highly recomend you grabbing one before they are all gone. Seriously. Click the pic to buy:

Omen

How fitting that on Friday 13th we get to launch the new Zombie Liquorice Tee; Omen. Love working for these guys their briefs are always very loose and they totally trust me to do what I like and want and we always end up with something great. These are selling very fast so I recommend getting over there and grabbing one while you can. But if you cant, I still have something up my sleeve for you next week. (click on the picture for the shop)

Numinous Clothing

A while ago I was contacted by a company in Washington and was asked to do a load of designs representing the various strains of weed. I jumped at the chance, not just because it sounded like a great project but because the guy sent me a letter about who he was and what he stood for, his philosophy and his beliefs. I wont go into great detail but will say the guy is a star.

Sonisphere 2011

Its that time of year again when some of the biggest names in metal gather in one place and thrash it out: Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax, and just too many to mention, some great punk bands and even House of Pain are playing! I cant begin to list all the other events, shows, comedians etc, you will have to go look yourself : Sonisphere festival.
In the meantime you can get the limited poster from the store- only 100 available, hand signed and numbered by the artist. 4 colours on Mr French Stock. Available now from my store.

OS + Godmachine

I Drew the baddest skull ever and now its available with a huge poster from my STORE. There are only 4 Poster bundles available!! The tee is available alone in mens and womens tops over at www.thecultoforiginalsin.com.

Godmachine Artist Boards + Route One

Route One asked me to do a set of decks as an artists range and I jumped at the chance to do a Triptych (one image on three canvases) on boards. Not my last either since they asked- more to come! The set come with a Tee and are available now from Route One

Poster sale

I recently dared to venture into my archives and found a load of posters that I held back for some reason or another, a lot of them are APs. I get a lot of people asking for them so have put them all p on ebay. They are all here; EBAY. Goodluck. THIS IS OVER NOW.

The Godmachine Eyeball

The eyes are back, only a few more made. Each one lovingly made by hand, lush toys or give them to the cat, I promise you the cat will go mad as will you watching the little fucker. Only a few in store, grab my eyes while you can:

Buy my Eyeballs

Osiris. Death

I was asked to create a number of images for Osiris, some for their general release and some for their artists canvas range: shoes, hoodies etc. This is available now- the rest will be available soon.

Eradication

Been trawling through loads of unseen work from last year and picking what to put up. I did this for a band called Eradication and they were great to work with, gave me a very loose brief and let me run with it. Thinking about turning it into a poster at some date....maybe...

Metal Hammer Reaper

Love drawing grim reapers and I love working with Metal Hammer. This CD cover they gave me a bit more free reign and the more you start to work with someone the more you know what they want. The CD features 15 brand new tracks from bands including CAVALERA CONSPIRACY, CHILDREN OF BODOM, WITHIN TEMPTATION, SYLOSIS, SIRENIA, KORPIKLAANI, CROWBAR, MOTIONLESS IN WHITE, BLACK SPIDERS

Sullen

Did a design for Sullen last year that was used for team rider Chad Knight. Was great working with them and we ended up getting a great tee out of it. Also was excited to be able to customize one of their existing logos which makes a great back print.

Cthulhu

Did this a while back as a T-shirt design and we decided to print it then as a poster but spent a long time working on new jobs and month and months went past until recently I was introduced to a UK printers that took the job and made it extra special. Limited to a run of 50. Screen printed on Ivory 290gsm. Signed and Numbered.

KFD SKATEBOARDS

Been doing a lot of boards recently for some grassroots teams which has been great for producing more stuff lending to my kinda style; they tend to go all out and ask for the sickest I can do. Mixed in here is a Superdead board, but click the pic' below to go to the KFD site to but the boards. ONLY £36 !!!!!!
