Buzz got his seat back!
I don't think little Buzz has appeared here before. Now the studio has been cleared a bit, Buzz has his window seat back again.
Cardboard and spray paint
I’ve been clearing up in the studio, trying to create a space for working. These are samples for colours and tests for stencils.
Having a clear out
Unfortunately the studio was becoming cluttered so I’ve started to clear some space so I can get on with new stuff.

Cutting new stencil
Work in progress. Using this triptych drawing to design a new stencil. Trying out various colours and textures, seeing if I can produce a range of lines on different surfaces, card, paper and canvas.
Recent work
Acrylic spray paint and POSCA pens on 4 stretched canvas panels.
Sketchbook
Trying out a few ideas based on Bruce the mechanical shark from the Jaws film, always had a bit of an obsession with this, I love the film but it’s the illusions of old film effects that have always fascinated me. Seeing the film Jaws again a few nights ago, I've been wanting to use this image of the shark in a new work using stencils, POSCA pens and spray paint.
New video
Just finished this spray paint demo. Working with my hand cut stencils. Knot, Heart quite complex and this is a first attempt at something more ambitious. Colour used : Apple Green, Frozen Raspberry, Bermuda and Citrus. All from Montana Gold range.
Wear a mask !
I don't like selfies, but just a word of warning a mask is essential when using spray paint. Latex gloves are also advised. I would work outside if weather was suitable and I intend to build an outside spray studio in the summer.
Work in progress
Filming a new demo. Working with spray paint and stencils. This is the knot stencil in 3 parts. Using Montana Gold colours : Bermuda and Citrus.
