Whoops….

Sorry I have not update this is a long while I have been distracted.

I’ve beenĀ  (and still am) doing a series of live art gigs with Alove (part of The Salvation Army) all around the UK, which has been really awesome to be part of, it will mean by the end of the fove events I will have created (hopefully) 10 unique pieces of art for them, which is quite a challenge when they are all trying to link to the one theme :) . I have also been doing work for some guys on youtube, doing various little tasks like logos, character sketches, and even youtube backgrounds which are slowly all getting completed. Of course there is the normal oh-so-occasional pieces of proper paid work as well and of course games and life that get in the way.

The biggest distraction at the moment however is that I am going to be moving flats in November, its just across city but its still a big move as I have been in my current flat for four and a half years, so thats a lot of collected junk. The new flat is an area of Edinburgh called Granton and its tied to a project going on in there run by the Salvation Army. It will be an interesting, and I am sure challenging, move into one of the more deprived areas of Edinburgh.

Anyway, just a quick update, you can keep track of what I am doing through twitter (and even google+) if you prefer more inane but frequent updating. :)

Laters peeps.

The quest for inspiration continues…

Well now that I have my little studio space, although I am still getting used to it and comfortable in it, I have found myself lacking ideas. This is because I have been going through a bit of a creative dry season, just finding it difficult to come up with interesting, challenging, and worthwhile images at the drop of the hat without some external influence. I decided that what I should do to help focus my mind is start a series of works based around a common theme or subject, much like I would do if doing an exhibit at a gallery. Of course this is when I hit my mental wall, so I thought I would throw it open to the web and see what comes in.

So, dear reader, what theme/subject/whatever should I explore in a series of works? Or can you point me to something you think would spark the creative juices?

Fresh Start

I kinda made a mistake, and have lost my posts, well I say lost they are stuck in a massive SQL backup, oh well, fresh start it is then :)

I will add a few older posts that I know how to find, but in general I think this will be a fresh start for the blog and thats probably a good thing.
