For the past two years i've been working as an art director in Kenya for a show called Tinga Tinga Tales for Tiger Aspect..

Here are a few images i did for the show . series two will be out in the UK soon and the Kenyan premier is this sunday (august 13th 2010) ...

Radio Acdemy

2009-08-16T07:41:00.001-07:00

I painted this wall for the Radio Academy next to where i work. Same old thing, Masking tape and a paint roller. This time i used a piece of string to get my vanishing point and perspective lines.

Wapi

2009-07-26T07:59:00.000-07:00

Every month in Nairobi a bunch of Musicians, MCs and artists get together and make a day of doin what they do for the public. It was great to see some amazing graphiti by the Wapi guys. This month they were kind enough to give me a piece of the wall. I had a great time. Thanks guys. shame its getting covered over in a week :)

I should also mention that its not supposed to be a self portrait although some thought it was. Easy mistake to make but i wonder what that says about me considering its actually based on a photograph i saw of an excavated corpse that still had the beard intact.

800 !!

2009-07-23T12:33:00.000-07:00

2009-05-19T09:36:00.000-07:00

This is a picture of a guy i met in a pub.
He said that i could call him "Derek" and that he had lost his hand
in a burmese prison. He said that i had the eyes of a killer and was
convinced that i wanted to murder everyone in the pub............
He said not to worry though because he wanted to help me do it........!??

This is a picture of an old dude i met at kings cross station. If i stand still in london for longer than two minutes theres always a guy just like this who sits and chats to me....
Poor old boy, he just needs conversation and for someone to light his fags.

2008-02-19T08:43:00.000-08:00

Ive been experimenting a bit with landscapes recently. Also i was in the mood for drawing trees.
I started signing my work too just to be flash.....oh yeah!

2008-02-15T06:23:00.000-08:00

Recently ive been quite into pasting texture over illustrator images.
This image still dosn't look quite as good as it did in my head but nevermind

I did the same on this image. These top two are a couple of concepts i designed at Triffic films for a sit com called Lab Rats which should be on telly soon.

Happy commercial love day x

Some Animation

2008-02-07T07:29:00.000-08:00

Heres a sample of some of my animation and some of the shows I helped design

This is a really old film i made at university. its on there twice for some reason.

This is something I animated at Triffic films for an animated sketch show for BBC2 called the cubby couch. it didn't get commisioned.

This is a pilot for Pete Fowlers Monsterism Island. I did a bit of animation on it. This show looks really cool.

This is something i worked on at Triffic Films for The Culture Show BBC2

This is a show I worked on By Peter Baynam at Triffic films called I am not an animal
it won an award at the Annecy animation festival

This is the BAFTA Award winning series The Secret Show which I helped design.
