**The Yards-Imperial Measures**













I finally received my copy of The Yards new album Imperial Measures last week.
I had designed the entire album package cover to cover including the 8 page inlay.
Really pleased with the way it looks (although this colour combination appears to be totally down to the computer, the real version is different) and a superb print job from Clear Sound and Vision.

Thanks to Chris and Jon of The Yards for entrusting me to realise a vision 2 years in the making. The long awaited 2nd album from The Yards is released on March 21st on their own Industrial Erotica Records.
Check out their site and music and think about buying a copy.

human writes


This is something i did for a project commemorating 60 years of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
I was invited to draw a little something to go on a miniature protest board, so thats what i did.

I think i might do a full human body made from chains and make it a metallic screenprint. ETA: 2012

Sweet home Alobama




Thought i'd get on the band wagon and do me an Obama piece.
I wanted to make him out of birds but that proved to be nearly impossible, so this is how it came out of my brain in the end.
