Fresh from the brew!

The chair is completed! yay!

I didn’t win but I really don’t mind, was a different project on some many levels, gave me the chance to pick up a paint brush again, so I’m happy as a pea in a pod :)

If you’re in Cape Town, check these chairs out at the Design Indaba Expo, they are for sale, and part of the proceeds go straight to charity, so all for a good cause!

Big love and thanks to Clint and Charlie xxxxxx

Peace

tattoos and chairs

I’m designing a tattoo for a special friend who’s turning 30 in a week’s time, and another friend Sean who makes chairs with abandoned tyres has asked me to paint one of his chairs for the Design Indaba Expo coming up next week.

Exciting!

I’ll be posting some pictures of the process and the finished product after its done which will be sometime next week, so keep a look out for new new projects!

here’s a little sketch of a part of the tattoo.

I actually had these done quite a while back, so this is a very fashionably late post.

When it comes to my own designs I’m generally quite indecisive and changes my mind almost all the time. The 1st cover is from one of the characters in my animation for the Shots magazine. In a sense he’s a fire-god of some sort and I added in the colour stripes behind him to make it look more contemporary.

And this is option 2, I felt that the fire-god was a bit too serious, so I used these little ones, they are the same guys from the business cards I made.

Voila!*The Chinese symbol on the top right corner represents the “meng” part of my name.

My first time

CIMG3850smlAfter researching, emailing, phoning, googling, obsessing and begging around for about 2 years here, I finally found someone who could teach me screen printing. I was ecstatic when I found Tertius our screen printing teacher– was  shivering from head to toe with excitement.

Currently I wish I had more time and space to do things like this. Work projects are not always extremely excite-able..
