  • The Orwell estuary in Suffolk at low tide, looking down river towards the the coast.

  • Walking down to my boat, some fog, made a great shot :)

  • This is reasonably self explanatory. At least it should be.

  • Click here to add me to your watch list. / .................................. / The Bank of Nova Scotia building. / Downtown St. John’s, Newfoundland. “The ideal set up by the Party was something huge, terrible, and glittering—a world of steel and concrete, of monstrous machines and terrifying weapons—a nation of warriors and fanatics, marching forward in perfect unity, all thinking the same thoughts and shouting the same slogans, perpetually working, fighting, triumphing, persecuting—three hundred million people all with the same face.” Nineteen Eighty-four—George Orwell

  • A stunning sunrise photograph taken at Pin Mill, Suffolk, UK, It was taken at 4.30am 20th May 2008. The river Orwell is in the background, this river winds its way through Suffolk and flows into the North Sea at Felixstowe. The lake in the fore ground is fed by underground springs and land dranage pipes. It hosts several mating frogs and a selection of other wildlife.

  • 11×15” (Winsor & Newton Cotman and Loew-Cornell Metallics on Strathmore CP 300 series paper) Part of my Revolutionaries Series. Watercolor portrait of George Orwell, inspired by his poem The Pagan (my favorite poem). Orwell is a huge inspiration to me and my work, from his ideals to his literature; he was a true visionary and genius. I tried to give him the purple and gold he desired… / Poem as follows: The Pagan / by Eric Blair (George Orwell) / 1918 SO HERE are you, and here am I, / Where we may thank our gods to be; / Above the earth, beneath the sky, / Naked souls alive and free. / The autumn wind goes rustling by / And stirs the stubble at our feet; / Out of the west it whispering blows, / Stops to caress and onward goes, / Bringing its earthy odours sweet. / See with what pride the setting sun / Kinglike in gold and purple dies, / And like a robe of rainbow spun / Tinges the earth with shades divine. / That mystic light is in your eyes / And ever in your heart will shine.

  • Homage to the year it all started for me and most of my friends: 1984. I don’t really know if history considers it a good year or a bad year … maybe for designers since it was the year the first Mac hit retail shelves. With apologies to Milton Glaser.

  • Orwell Bridge, over River Orwell

  • Your government is watching you. All. The. Time. Also available as a print here

  • Those Days Are Gone. This was taken when the annual barge race was happening on the River Orwell. I decided to take the picture to its full glory and make it look old, so it looks like the picture was taken it their finest hour.

  • I have done portraits of people I consider to be or have been Revolutionaries, from writers to musicians, creative and independent thinkers all of them!

  • Big Brother is back.

  • another project for school. One of these days, I”ll submit something I’ve done on my own… 1984 project (see the quotes in the background?) mean to tie it’s theme of enslavement of the developing world to our world today.

  • Un pasaje de la novela de George Orwell… Preview

  • Part of an abstract collection of work I collaborated on called XX_XX (twenty twenty). Done purely for experimentally abstract fun! The idea was to tap into the noise of the unconscious, using mixed media. No logo’s, no product, no celebrity faces! This piece was inspired by the book 1984, television, big brother and the button in a lift. I’m going to upload a few more so let me know what you think!

  • I saw this Buddhist monk in a market in Katha, home of author George Orwell between 1926-27. It was his stay in Katha, as a police officer, that inspired him to write the book “Burma Days”. Pentax K10D.

  • Orwell Corner PEI, was named in 1769 by Surveyor General Captain Samuel Holland after Lord Francis Orwell, then British Minister of Plantations. Initial settlement was on the coast but and as fields and roads were created settlement moved inland. The small crossroads community of Orwell Corner was founded in the early nineteenth century by Scots who were amongst the Glenaladale Settlers who left Scotland in 1772 on the brig ‘Alexander’, and they were joined by families that came from the Isle of Skye, County Monaghan in Ireland and loyalists who left the US after the revolution. Orwell Corner went into decline in the 20th century and in 1970 plans were prepared to restore it to reflect how it would have looked in the 1890s. The result is Orwell Corner Historic Village, a small open air museum with a church, a farm, a store, a school, a community hall and a blacksmiths shop. Its historical significance lies in the fact that these are historical buildings on their original sites, sadly with the exception of the community hall as the original burned down in the 1950s.

  • George Orwell (aka Eric Blair) lived as a police officer in remote Katha, Burma, on the upper Irrawaddy River between 1926-27, and it was during this time that he gathered material to write, several years later, the book “Burma Days”. These days the house is a rundown ruin, but is still lived in by an old Burmese woman.

  • Letraset. Paper. Half a lifetime. Originally it was a graphic about ‘not heeding warnings’ and ‘time running out’, but as I made it I started to think more and more about how 1984 is just as much an instruction manual for the powerful as it is a warning for the proles. There’s a name for this effect I think, but I have forgotten it. 3mm Helvetica Condensed Bold. / The bottom half of the hourglass never made it on. Looked too much like a moustache. / “Nothing was your own except the few cubic centimetres inside your skull.” / There was also a variation I quite liked but the text was too small I think.

  • I meant to upload this five minutes after this as it was a sort of fuck up companion piece, except I totally forgot. Probably got distracted with an overwhelming desire to masturbate. Anyway better 4 months late then never. Possibly. Opening line of 1984. Real live Letraset.
