Some exciting new developments in the wilsonarium.
A new new thing and a new old thing.
Firstly this amazing screenprint that has been a long time coming. designed and developed by myself with Decoy.tv and printed in Seattle by Justin Dickau. looking forward to receiving these through the post soon. A very limited run of these exists in the US and i may have one or two to sell so keep your eyes peeled on the blog.

And secondly a very sneaky peak at one of two special screen prints being produced at this moment by PrintClub London.
These will be on sale on the printclubs online shop and also at their pop-up shop. i might also steal a few to sell on my online shop. Excited about these, old ones but good ones!
Some of my older prints are available from printclubs online shop as well so check em out for some cheap xmas presents.

The Yards Pt-2

A few nicer examples of the work i did for The Yards a couple of months ago.
Clicky Clicky Enjoy

**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.

Queen of Hoxton cubicle

I was commissioned by Margaret London to paint a cubicle for the opening of the new 'Queen Of Hoxton' club at the bottom of Curtain Road.
These are some of the pics of what i did that day. Think it turned out well in the end, the other cubicles are good too, and theres a whole Pure Evil room amongst many other things. Its open now so worth going to check it all out.

'THE QUEEN OF HOXTON'

An illustration used as part of a wall painting for new club 'The Queen of Hoxton' on curtain road.
I'll put some photos up of what i did for them next week.

windswept and interesting, but above all, dangerous.

I was very pleased to find this magazine in the post on saturday morning. Not just because i like post, but because of it's nice little mini feature on yours truly. The second volume of dangerous ink magazines, relaunched for America. Available in borders for the credit crunch busting sum of £2.50.
Thankyou to Tom at dangerous ink for digging the work.

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
