PUCK DRAWING CLUB THREE - TATTOO OVERDRIVE

 

 Cheers to all the bad boys and girls that came along to our third Puck Drawing Club yesterday at Somerset House!

It was a pretty big turnout, and we were amazed at how engaged these cool crafty kids were, and how dark and involved their tattoo designs became.  I enjoyed being told by one small boy 'Yeah, I'm so good at this cos I take art classes'.  Oh mercy!

 

 

This mother and daughter combo were pretty cool

And here are a few more badass ones that caught our eye

DRAWING CLUB AT PICK ME UP - THIS WEEKEND!

This year's Pick Me Up exhibition at Somerset House opened yesterday - and what sights!  Puck Collective have created a riotous temporary tattoo parlour for your pleasure, so you can head on down and be covered in tattoos by the Puck artists (including my selection of BIG CATS)

This Sunday, Margaux Carpentier and I will be hosting the next Puck Drawing Club ALL DAY LONG in the Pick Me Up space - it's going to be huge!  Margaux drew this flyer, isn't it nice?

You are all invited to come and join us - participants can choose from a few tatto-based activities on offer, ranging from drawing tattoos on large, life size paper silhouettes to creating your own temporary tattoo.  Simply draw your design, hand it to Margaux or myself, and it will be printed out and applied onto your very body then and there.  Can't say fairer than that.  To celebrate your achievement, you will get one of these little screenprinted cards I made for the event.

SO, remember:  Sunday 21st!  10-5!  Bring pens and pencils if you like, but be prepared to draw something EXTREME!

AS INTENDED...

 It's a set of five prints!  These images are all pages from The Elder, destined to be wrapped in little screenprinted belly-bands and sent out over the next couple of weeks.

MEVLANA OF THE GOLDEN AGE - ISSUE TWO!

Yep, work is now heavily in progress for Mevlana of the Golden Age issue 2. 

Making issue one last year was great fun, with Adam and I working collaboratively on all aspects of writing, drawing, printing and binding.  But we have decided that our subsequent issues will be a bit different, with each of us taking more of a lead role in the creation of an issue.  Excitingly, this means that we are working pretty much simultaneously on issue two and three, with the story evolving all the time. 

Here is some work in progress for issue two (which I am working on at the moment).  In the next few weeks/months I'm sure there will be many exciting images of Adam's issue three appearing too, and we hope to launch them both when the weather gets warmer and we have more time to spend on printing hundreds of comics!

FLIGHT AND FRIGHT

HEY,  two new Elder prints!

LOOK! WALTHAMSTOW WETLANDS!

Here are some photos of the prints that Adam and I produced for the Walthamstow Wetlands exhibition at The Missing Bean a few months ago.  WALTHAMSTOW!  The map of the wetlands is now available from my Etsy shop HERE, and comes with a copy of the zine we produced for the show. 

NEW ELDER PRINTS

Here are a couple more screenprints I have made of pages from The Elder, showing A SPELL being contemplated, and then THE SPELL itself, being muttered as a mystical incantation.....  There are two more on the way today, I'm finding it quite exciting to suddenly see these become 2-colour images.
