Sixty days to go till I move back to the UK and here are three, pre-2000 paintings waiting to be packed.
At the back, a tribute to Jamie Hewlett's 'Tank Girl' from 1995. It's all hand drawn on marbled paper and stuck to a piece of wood.
In the middle, part of a painting called 'The Dream' from 2007.
At the front, 'Sugar 1' from an exhibition in 2006.

BARGEPOLE, besides being an object, is also a British expression; a shortened form of 'I wouldn't touch that with a bargepole.'
It means 'no way.'
An example: 'Do you have a Facebook page' and I could answer 'Bargepole.'

For the letterheads, this is inspired by a 1817 Vincent Figgins typeface.

Hello peeps,
Here's an image from my solo exhibition called 'ILLISIBLE' (which is French for 'unreadable'). It's Au Tribouli, Crest, France.
Because I'm a sign painter, people often concentrate on the word I've written rather than enjoying the letters. So I took my trusty old Makita jigsaw to a load of practice signs and made these.
DM me to buy one 🙂
