The Monster Squad Art Entry
1 August 2011
Coming August 6th the skies will bleed ink, paint and felt to mark the arrival of Monster Creeps, a one-night only art retrospective celebrating the twin terrors of director Fred Dekker: Night of the Creeps and Monster Squad. Monster Creeps will take place on Saturday, August 6th at Dark Delicacies (www.darkdel.com) from 8-10pm and feature artists from all over the world sharing their love of two 80s classic horror films. Fred Dekker is scheduled to be in attendance and there will also be a movie screening (TBA) of one of the films ( text from http://www.strangekidsclub.com/?p=8822 )
So Here is my entry of one of my favorite movies when I was a kid, Strange kids club was kind enough to invite me to enter a piece for this awesome show , how could I refuse. My final submission piece is a hand pulled silkscreen print on curious metal paper I also did a limited run of 30 each is signed and numbered, if you want one get it here http://www.etsy.com/listing/78451167/the-monster-squad?ref=pr_shop and hurry they are selling quickly.
So here is the final digital version
This is the hand pulled silkscreen version, I am very happy with how this one came out, the print is really beautiful.
And here is just a little progress image to show how I put this image together, thanks for looking.

Creeping Death – Indie Film poster commision
20 July 2011
I was commissioned to do a film poster that would represent a Cthulhu like creature bursting through a cinema complexes double doors. I really enjoyed working on this piece from the offset of the drawing I already had the idea that there will be lots of bounce light falling onto the creatures slimy appendages.
I also did some logo treatments using brush pens to create the jittery text , I scanned them in and cleaned them up in Photoshop.
Here is the pencil artwork I started with, I did not draw in the brick work as a simple photo-texture will do the trick.
I then create a gray value artwork this I use to determine how the different elements interact with each other, this is the final important stage before I move onto colour work.
NOTE: Here is a Wiki page on info about Cthulhu : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cthulhu

Octaman Silkscreen Poster with UV Varnish
17 May 2011
Some details about the print:
The artwork was a pencil sketched and digitally coloured, then to give it a vintage look I used the traditional hand pulled silkscreen process.
This is a full colour silkscreen print (four colour separation), printed on a 120gram Curious Metals White gold paper, this paper gives the print a slight metallic sheen.
The Title and Taglines are spot varnished with a UV Varnish with added copper metallic powder.
Dimensions are H 27.6 X W 18.89 inches 70cm X 48cm.
They are limited to 36 prints
You can get them here
