This work is the second in a series of (finished) drawing/illustration based projects which are intended to examine the links between the concept of the traditional flat, two dimensional, hand drawn image and a final three dimensional object which is still endowed with the essential elements of the original.


I am also trying to find ways of presenting works, not so much within an “urban” environment, but within said environment whilst avoiding the numerous existing forms of expression that are beginning to saturate the hipper crosswalks, store windows and doors as well as various council approved “art” festivals. Basically stickers and stencils are played out.


Urban art/graffiti etc is at an all time high in terms of popularity and as a result it is quite easy to get caught up in preconceptions, politics and other associated issues. The nature of these images and their final forms, while not avoiding these issues will hopefully be strong enough to standout from them.
