The Flicker of the paint



So okay I know I'm a bit late on the uploading of the canvases but now is the time. Bought the canvas from a local art shop and said well how can I incorporate my Persona on to these ? Think ! Got some spray paint, emulsion paint, tipex and a marker, then went crazy. Looks much better before the eyes but I did promise to upload one of the canvases (a week late) but never the less. A few posts later I will upload a better picture quality of the piece and more. Nang !!!

Love & Light !

That Beautiful Monday Morning Feeling



Well thank the universe / logic for actually allowing me to get this piece up... why ? Well when a file is to big after it's been scanned in to upload on to you computer, the process of shrinking the file size is enough to send you crazy. Thank goodness for Grab on  Mac operating systems that allows you to grab an image at a much smaller file size so you can then upload with no problems.

Okay now. How I appreciate nature in all of it's beautiful forms of expression and variations is contrary to what I see outside on a day to bay basis. Anything to do with things that are not mechanical I have an interest in. Here I wanted to symbolise the beauty of such things that we take for granted in London town. Maybe where I am I don't happen to see enough (not moving to a farm) to make me feel as if I am connected with what is natural. The over saturation of technology is driving me crazy. So from time to time I will sit in a park and let's just say admire what I see with a mind of clarity. I advise everyone to take at least 30mins in the day, twice or three times a week and walk in the park to clear your mind. Works for me at times.

Total creative time for this piece was around three hours. Haven't decided to name it yet.

I incorporate my Persona to what is natural in the the universe and on planet Earth. You should to !!!


Love & Light !

Stargazing



So who doesn't like a confident women ? I call this piece Stargazing. Not because it looks as if she is. But because WE are stars. (Apologies for getting all metaphysical on ya folks). She, is just gazing. Still yet to throw some colour in this piece but I shall get there in the end. Oh yeah, for those that didn't know. Illustration is what I'm into HEAVY !!!!


Love & Light !

FROM THE FOREST TO THE CITY

Front
Back & Spine
CD artwork


Never really was one to do album covers. But when your friends ask for help, what do you do ? Well the simple answer is, you help, IF you can. For my friend Matty I had no problems with helping him put this together. Did take some time for him to flip flop between ideas (which is why I choose not to do album covers). Never the less, this was the end result and accomplishment of a great work. The album is a mixture of tracks revolving around his travels from town to town. For this project he focused on creating music based upon the feeling of his surroundings. I mean how creative can one really get. When down a dark alley you get very hard and impactful beats. In the park you get a sensation of calm, tranquil bliss. It's a blend of what people would feel if one had no sight with a broad imagination. Very good work and well thought out.

Love & Light !

Rollin'



Who remembers Raw Hide.

Flying Hummingbird


So I'm sitting indoors, you know, just getting my creative grind on. Then BAM !!! A flash of light that emanates directly from my girlfriends camera hits me. Well.... we can't take certain things back after they are done. So I thought that it would be a good idea if I posted some of her pictures up on the blog. Also allowing people to see this piece of the, (da da da duuuhhhh) Flying Hummingbird. Chris loves nature and all of Gods fine creations so I took it upon myself to reflect that through this piece. Also one of my favourites. The total creative tally time amounted to just over six hours, with the exception of the fine detail that was put in place. Got caught out of place with this one but I don't mind when wifey takes pics. My latest pieces are about eight times the size of what you see. Some unfinished so I'll be posting a lot of my smaller pieces more often. Hope you like ! Also may I add that canvas pieces have also been manifested by these very hands so I'll be posting some of those later on this week.









Love & Light !

His mixtape consists of 13 tracks that all have significant relations to bettering ones self, having a positive outlook, his personal experiences, social issues that are aimed at all ages and backgrounds. (You can see my ugly grill on the last verse lol).
