Back in the early 90s, I was commissioned to illustrate Warner Music’s catalogue. I was pretty much burned out doing these film noir gumshoes so I hesitated at first but eventually capitulated when writer Ian Dewhirst added more characters.
Despite some negative reactions from the suits at Warner’s, it went on to win a D&AD advertising award for Best Corporate Campaign.
To celebrate International Women’s Day, I wanted to choose an iconic female that would speak volumes about the women in my life and their best qualities: their concern and resolve, their nobility and beauty.
PS. I used the lovely Tina Louise (Ginger in Gilligan’s Island) as the basis for BIG RED.
The image is available form the Products shop as either a canvas or art stock paper print.
I was asked to create this portrait of the lovely Ms. Christine Moeller a few days before Xmas but I was still able to spend lots of time getting the hair and expression as perfect as possible. To reflect Christine’s sparkling personality, I added bursts and gradients instead of block colours and added her little dog (who looks like anime anyway).
I was proud to present the canvas to her at a lavish dinner party at her home in Prague.
All the best, Christine – don’t work too hard.

With this in mind, we’ve unleashed our Limited Edition, 100% cotton T-shirt for those keen to foster a special relationship with their local constabulary. These vintage shirts were originally intended for the Notting Hill Carnival back in 1992 but were printed without the accompanying text.

I seem to be working towards becoming the in-house artist for financial giants KPMG these days, with several of my commissions originating from their Prague office.
As their top man celebrated his 60th birthday recently, I decided to render a quick artwork which was presented to him this week.

Every once in a while, I get the opportunity to re-render one of my old illustrations.
A Drug Against War was one of my first sleeves for KMFDM and when I asked the band for a high-res copy of the sleeve, they were only able to supply me with a heavily-pixellated version. So, using Illustrator, I painstakingly reproduced the artwork with clean and minimalist vectors, keeping as close as possible to the original.
I am offering this beautiful A0 canvas print for the special price of 560 euros.
