Good morning/afternoon/evening to everybody out there in the Redbubble world, I hope your all having a great day. Sorry I haven’t journaled for awhile, it’s been a few months of turmoil and upheaval for me personally and producing art and photography has taken a bit of a backseat of late… but I’m back and ready to dust myself down and get back in the fight! You will be hearing more from me…
London Portraits
One of the great things about Redbubble is its ability to make you test yourself artistically. By that I mean pushing your personal boundaries, learning new things and venturing into areas you previously haven’t felt comfortable. For me this area is portraiture…which is why creating a series of portrait shots has been one of the most difficult and challenging learning experiences in photogr…

For they are living a dream, a dream so dis…

You only have to…
Urban Décor Pt 2... Artist vs Criminal
After publishing Urban Décor part 1 on Monday I was interested to see the reaction from the Redbubble community on the subject of urban art. To be honest I was expecting a mixed reaction because this form of art has many guises, some of which have a habit of pissing people off… tagging being one of…
Urban Décor Pt 1... How to get your voice heard
The UK has been a bastion of free speech for many years now and it is something I am very proud of. Our recent heritage is full of great bands, writers, artists and film makers that have thrived in tolerant society that has welcomed free expression. The UK’s artists are known the world over for pushing boundaries and mixing together genres of art to create sub-genres and in some cases compl…
