I have not filmed any new demo videos for a while due to suffering from a very painful elbow injury. This has shown signs of recovery so I hope to film a new video soon. Sorry for the delay and I hope that the viewers of my YouTube channel will understand. I have experimented with TikTok videos and I will post updates about this development soon.
Sorry for the lack of recent posts and videos but I hope to try and update the website in the new year. I have added the mono-printing kits back in the website shop and this includes the special editions that have the booklet. I have now removed the gallery of your work but this will return once it has been edited.
Still missing a few photographs. Please send ASAP.

Compilation of photographs that have been added to the PLACE project. I am working on an idea that would incorporate all 100 of the paper houses, this will be changed and edited as I work on a few ideas but I hope it will create a finished artwork that could be displayed in a gallery. Please send your contribution as soon as possible so I can begin to fill the gaps. Thanks to all those who have submitted your photographs, I really appreciate your interest and commitment to this project.
After GOOGLE removed all of my project photographs (including FLEET from 2017) from the map for no reason I have found a suitable alternative. This interactive map will now contain many of the photographs that are submitted for the PLACE art project. I will try to update this as often as possible. This map has NO connection with GOOGLE.
Thanks to everyone who added their names to the list of contributors, this is the full list of 100. I will send emails to confirm and make sure that I have the correct postal address. I'm sorry if you missed out but unfortunately I had to limit the number. The project really has reached around the world and I look forward to dispatching the houses beginning on the 1st of August. All the little houses are numbered and the number next to your name will be the house that is posted to you.
I'm working on a new collaborative art project for this summer. Following on from the FLEET project of 2017, the PLACE artwork will encourage people to take part and submit their own contributions. I will announce further information and details of how to take part as the project develops.
A new print shop is being added to the website that will include exclusive sets of prints and limited editions.
UPDATE : All future videos will now be posted on the YouTube channel
Sorry for the delay in getting this back online but I am spending time making improvements and it is taking much longer to sort out. While I work on improvements to the format I am putting the old style gallery back. The new format sees smaller galleries displayed under the videos that inspired the work. This means work is now grouped together and will be easier to view.
I’ve decided to have a look at the channel to see if things can be improved. The YouTube algorithm has changed recently and it has had a huge impact on the channel. I’m trying out new video thumbnails and experimenting with titles and format. I will try to make regular posts and respond as soon as I can to any comments or questions. Filming and editing the videos takes time but understanding the complexities of how YouTube works is another level.
I am making a few changes to the gallery of your submitted artwork. This will be updated and will be improved to make it easier to look through all the artwork. I will try to get this back online as soon as possible.
Please remember to add the correct postage for shipping the kits, I cannot send them unless this is added at the checkout. All orders without the correct postage applied will be refunded.
I have decided to take a break from posting the demo videos while I start work on some new art projects. All the videos will still be available to watch and I hope to be back with more ideas and techniques for you to be inspired by.
I will begin to open the online shop soon and start to resume postal orders again. The Royal Mail has been making sure normal postal service can continue around the UK as well as overseas.
There are some expected delays but I am told that this should be no more than 2 - 3 days for most international shipping. All UK deliveries should be as expected.
It has been such a horrible time for everyone at the moment and I hope that things will continue to recover. Stay safe and well and thanks as always for your support. I would also like to thank those postal workers and all their efforts to help to provide such a vital worldwide service. Take care, Dan.
