L A C K table project in collaboration with Daddison

On Saturday I collaborated (for the third time - see our other collabs here and here) with Daddison, individually stencilling (with spraypaint) and then drawing (with paint pens) on 31 Lack Tables as part of I K E A's 25th birthday celebration in the UK.

We had to decorate the 31 Lack Tables with individual designs, and we only had 6 hours to complete the whole task. It was a real challenge for me as I am used to spending at least a day on one final image, so creating over 30 in just a few hours was a somewhat stressful, but overall an educational and rewarding experience.

Here are some shots of me working on the tables in store:

These are the tables prepped and ready to draw on instore:

These are the reference images I used to create the designs:

Here are some work in progress shots from when Daddison and I were prepping the tables outside using stencils and spraypaint:

Here are some pictures of me experimenting a few days before the event with stencilling (for the first time ever!) in my studio:

Portrait of Anthony Nuku (1984 - 2012)

This a portrait I made for a very good friend of mine in Australia. The subject is Anthony Nuku, who tragically passed away earlier this year.

This is the photo that I based the portrait on:

The background is based on the lining of one of Nuku's favourite jackets:

Here are some pictures of the work in progress and of the image in my studio in Bristol. (Sorry about the poor quality - they were taken on my phone)
