Blog

I got completely absorbed in making this Blog nearly twenty years ago. It was full of paintings, writing, charcoal drawings and small animations. Then life took over. Finding it again and beginning it again has made me feel unexpectedly young and excited.

Tooth Tattoo

Oil on canvas 8″x10″. I was wondering what sort of things people would tattoo on their teeth if it was possible. I would have "I want a chocolate cookie NOW" written on mine. Or maybe I would have "I'm sad" just to confuse people when I am happy and smiling. H

Shower Gel

Oil on canvas 8″x10″ Yeah I didn't really think this one through too much as I thought it might spoil my fun. You know how they say your body is 70% water(is it more ?) and the water in your body completely replaces itself after 6 weeks? Well when I painted th

Wind Tunnel

Auntie Shirley's Safari

Simon Green and me made THIS ANIMATION a couple of years ago when we were trying to get on that Rolph Harris' celebrity portraits T.V. program. It's only 30 seconds long but we worked round the clock on it for about 2 or 3 days. We wrote a really groveling let

Hylonme the Dinner Lady

Oil on canvas 8″x10″. I like the title 'dinner lady' because it implies that she is a lady and that she has an undefined role in the ritual we call dinner. She could be assisting during dinner, eating dinner or even be eaten for dinner. I found a really good l
