I had a go at customising a mini Kidrobot Munny over the holidays. I’ve had this little guy sat on my shelf for a while now so thought it was about time I got round to painting him up. It’s the first time I’ve worked with a 3D surface like this so I was treating it as a bit of an experiment – attacking it with different pens and paints to see what worked.
It was a lot of fun! I’ll definitely be doing another one!
It’s been almost a year since I started keeping a regular sketchbook and I’m so glad I found the time to keep it up!
I’ve been doing some more experimenting with textured grayscale fills – playing with pencils, markers, and a combination of both. It’s taken a few attempts to get the results as I’d like, but I’m finding a flow that I’m happy with now. Here area few favourites.
The Things I Think About, When I Think About Thinking is LHR’s 15th and final exhibition, showcasing work from a diverse group of artists, with my Nucleus Blue piece as part of the collection.
Following on from the Robot Skull Charm we created earlier this year, I’ve teamed up with @JoyComplex again to create a cute 3D printed pixel heart pendant charm.
I’ll have a new piece of work in Gresty’s Love Me / Love Me Not (LHR) Group Exhibition opening tomorrow night (11/9) at The Lauriston in Hackney.
Those of you who follow me on Instagram will know that I’ve been getting back into Sketchbooking this year. I’ve never been big on keeping a sketchbook so I’ve had to make a conscious effort to do so in order to get into the habit.
I just love all the colourful street art around Manchester’s Northern Quarter, so I was super excited when the folks at #OutHouseMCR let me paint up one of the plinths on Stevenson Square – a space that showcases a different set of artists every 3 months.
Doodle For Good is a funky coloring book for older kids and adults, featuring a collection of 24 line drawings by artists from across the globe, including one of my robot creatures! I’m real pleased to be a part of this project and feature alongside a whole load of talented artists.
I’ll have a new piece of work in Mr Gresty’s Let’s Tessellate (LHR) Exhibition, opening this Friday (29/5) at The Lauriston in Hackney.
So, this happened! The super talented @JoyComplex made a 3D printed Robot Skull charm from one of my doodles! The first of a few jewellery and figurine collabs we’re working on together.
This piece is available to buy in all kinds of materials and finishes, from Steel to 18k Gold. Head on over to Joy Complex’s Shapeways store for a closer look.
