Renowned graffiti artist Robbo had some of his work showcased at Pure evil on Leonard Street. It seems now graffiti has become accepted to some degree, a lot more writers have crept from the train tracks and tried to produce some real 'art' work. Couldn't find any examples of his work @ Pure Evil, but don't worry you're not missing too much.

Gastrotypographicalassemblage

After seeing this on the CR blog - i had to check it out. Kemistry, just off Curtain road is showcasing some of the work of renowned designer Lou Dorfsman. The show centered around his 'Gastrotypographicalassemblage'. Orgininally it adorned a wall of the cafeteria in the CBS centre on 52nd Street, New york. The Replica showcased at Kemistry is a third of the size, but is still pretty breathtaking.

Letterpress

Had a quick induction to the colleges Letterpress facilities. I had a lot to take in, but hopefully with a little practice i can create some great work using it. My first attempt..

Feck'n amazing. Blu

From the vernacular type workshop i've had a go creating a typeface using the London Underground Roundel. This is a very early attempt, and couldn't be used as a working typeface - but i hope to give it some style and attempt to create a fluent typeface which still holds a visible resembelance to the Roundel.

Had a trip down to somerset house for the 'Pick me up' contemporary art fair. Some great artists with some great work....

A day out in old Folkstone

I went down to the sea in search of creative inspiration. No, not really, but i did get some work done. We went down for fireworks night and stayed for a couple of days. Really nice and relaxing down there, the house was literally feet from the beach. x

I've just got a new Mac and thought i'd take part of the weekend to get used to it. Having been a PC all my life i'm finding it pretty hard. Also, i downloaded CS4 trials to see whats new....

I produced this logo in relation to the work we did in Darren's process workshop a couple of weeks back. It's for a print shop with a difference, aimed at art students & young people alike.

On my way home...

i caught this sitting at london bridge on an opposite platform....not bad

but not quite what they got up to in new york in the 70's

On monday i had my induction to the infamous LCC screen print studio. We were being led around by Mike, a really nice chap who works there. From 10:30 to 4.00 we were shown the in ands out of the studio and the process of screen printing. Being near enough clueless as to how screen printing was completed, it turned out tot be a really interesting day. I can't wait to get in there my self....
