Grafuck is a new anthology of erotic art created by a diverse group of international artists.

Grafuck embraces and celebrates the individual artistic expression of sex. It started out with a curiosity for what might happen if artists and designers were asked to create work around a subject that many still find taboo.

Plus, making naughty pictures is fun. So, I put together something naughty.

Having been asked to produce something for a blank wall, the ideas were based around 80s cartoons. After many a concept, this was the result.

I hope you like it.

So it was my birthday. 25 and everything. I celebrated this with a brand spanking website. Take a look

Having been asked previously to design an advert for this company, this time my attention was on the promotional flyer to be distributed throughout the film and theatre industries.

Reinterpreting the images from the previous flyer and tightening the identity created a professional effective flyer.

The not yet completed self initiated project that is ‘Debbie & Dolly’.

Entitled so because of these iconic images of Debbie Harry & Dolly Parton. The concept behind this project was to create popular artwork that takes reflection upon current gossip cultures. Big Brother created Jade Goody and Heat magazine made her a star – the untouchable celebrity is no more, and it’s a damn shame sir.

Since the initial launch, we have refreshed the identity to appeal to a broader market and to be usable for both professional print leaflets and in-house print material. By using key signature elements we have created a range of material which supports their needs and budgets.

The website has also since been redesigned to incorporate an updated detailed treatment list. We have also added a news & offers page to allow the business to promote offers regularly.

“In order to use colour effectively it is necessary to recognise that colour deceives continually. Colours present themselves in a continuous flux, constantly related to changing neighbours and changing conditions. As a consequence, this proves for the reading of colour what Kandinsky often demanded for the reading of art: what counts is not the what but the how.” (taken from the Interaction of Color by Josef Albers)

“In the subjective aspect, we call beauty that which supplies us with a particular kind of pleasure. In the objective aspect, we call beauty something absolutely perfect, and we acknowledge it to be so only because we receive, from the manifestation of this absolute definition, a certain kind of pleasure; so that this objective definition is nothing but the subjective conception differently expressed.” (Lyov Nikolayevich Tolstoy 1828-1910)

Live it up!

Combining music and images, I created a quick loading typographical film with black and white plus one colour.

Colour me your colour baby

In contrast to black & white… a film in colour. Imagine ‘pick up sticks’ and you’re getting warmer.

Die young, Stay pretty

Originally designed to be painted, it needed to move and now it does.
