New work for @arrowvideo! I vividly remember that True Romance was one of my first 18-rated video rentals back in the day. I loved the classic 90s film then, and still love it now I’ve revisited it, so it was amazing to get to make this, and work with Arrow for the first time. Of course Quentin Tarantino wrote the screenplay and it was the next film he’d written after writing and directing Resevoir Dogs, so I also remember all the hype at the time, even though the late great Tony Scott was at the helm. Such an incredible cast, and that unforgettable Hans Zimmer theme/score! This is the back and front of the actual steelbook. See previous posts for more info. Will share the back cover soon. Thanks to Arrow Video for the commission, and to James Flower in particular. #trueromance #patriciaarquette #tonyscott #quentintarantino #steelbook #steelbookcollector #steelbookcover #bluray #4k #arrowvideo #90smovies #classicmovies #christianslater #bradpitt #garyoldman #christopherwalken #dennishopper #valkilmer #hanszimmer https://www.instagram.com/p/COS3_cfDDk1/?igshid=1uqyywbf08lal

This is the front cover of the steelbook featuring the one and only Patricia Arquette as the iconic Alabama, but I also made a back cover as well as the slip case cover. Will be sharing those very soon.

Loved the first two episodes of WandaVision and can’t wait to see where it goes! Here’s the colour version of my parody painting of Grant Wood’s American Gothic.

“I want us to fit in”. Can’t wait to tune into WandaVision tonight, so I painted this parody of Grant Wood’s American Gothic to celebrate the return of the MCU!

The Sound of Light Officially licensed David Bowie screen print, available now in a limited edition from Echoprintgallery.

My poster was produced in conjunction with brand new venture, ECHO print gallery, and approved by the David Bowie estate. Limited edition prints are available now from echoprintgallery.com. 

Like any other 80s kid, I grew up hearing David Bowie’s music and seeing him regularly on film and television my whole life. As such I feel very grateful to have been able to pay official tribute to the late great legend. Huge thanks to ECHO and the Bowie estate for making this possible.

For my piece I thought I’d celebrate several of his iconic personas and stages of his career, from Ziggy Stardust to Blackstar, via The Thin White Duke and others. The title of the piece is ‘The Sound of Light’. It’s going to be an 18x24” screenprint and as well as the main edition, there are rainbow and gold foil variants (previewed above), plus a pearlescent option exclusive to the subscription series, which gets you all the prints coming this year from ECHO.

Just loved The Queen’s Gambit. Had this idea and had to make it to get it out of my system! #thequeensgambit #anyataylorjoy #netflix #digitalpainting #digitalart https://www.instagram.com/p/CHsEUtgDcXr/?igshid=mtno1v0itom7

Poster for The Companion, a premium sci-fi app that’s coming to the end of its Kickstarter campaign (two days left at time of posting).

It’s reached its funding goal, but you can still back it to get a print. Season 1 of the app content will be focused on the 90s, and I had a (laser) blast making this and revisiting some of my faves, and discovering some others I didn’t get around to at the time!

Happy 16th anniversary #shaunofthedead! I was hoping to have some new artwork out this year, though no doubt it won’t come as a huge surprise when I say that it’s been delayed indefinitely. Thanks to everyone who sent in their zombie pics. Hopefully someday it’ll see the light of day. Stay safe everyone, and definitely don’t go to The Winchester. #throwbackthursday #simonpegg #nickfrost #edgarwright https://www.instagram.com/p/B-xTZd-DawR/?igshid=l3926y3pm7ve

Well clearly I had to paint this guy to go with the Baby Yoda I painted recently as we welcome Disney+ to the U.K. this week. Hope everyone is taking good care and staying safe. #themandalorian #mandalorian #babyyoda #starwars #pedropascal #jonfavreau #taikawaititi #thisistheway #disneyplus #disneyplusuk #digitalart #digitalillustration #illustration #artist #art #instaart #instaartist https://www.instagram.com/p/B-P1fyfjRQ1/?igshid=ffen61s44dzx
