Got round to taking pics of some more recent stuff.

Here's a big robot from my son's nursery (Acrylic on box canvas 2'x2'):

And a tree goblin (Acrylic on tree)

Excellent brush mojo, Z.

Where's the tree?

You should sneak out at night and do one in a park. You'd be like the Fleetwood Banksy.

Wait... Fleetwood, park. Nevermind.

I clicked on the thingy, but the tree goblin is extra fun!

Best dad ever. Can we have a sweepstake on what age yours (er, vagueness for lack of knowledge about how many, ages, sex etc) will be when they realise that not everyone's dad wanders around painting cool things on suitable surfaces?

You know, while I like the finished product, the first photo is the picture I'd like to have on my wall.

I saw it and thought "Do want" and then there were more pictures off the bottom of the browser.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Mon Sep 05, 2011 14:11

Well if you like that abstract I'd be more than happy to create something similar for you (or anyone who's interested).

£50 per canvas (approx 2'x2') & whatever else it would cost for P&P.

Or you can be a cheap ass punk and download the high res digital photo of the one you saw here and get it printed and send me a bit of money plz :kiss:

With my Wipeout-Lichtenstein vinyl*, the One In A Million I got Helen the other week, a small photo-of-us vinyl she had done and a Japanese textile lunch-wrapping all going up since I moved in, we're about out of wall unfortunately**. Maybe something for the landing, but I've properly skinted myself for now.

* 1.5m x 0.75m!
** I've bagsied the stairwell for Pac-Man, the ghosts and a Power Pill done as individual canvases, too.

Did you see my Pac-Man that my brother did for me for my wedding? If not, I'll post a picture when I get home..

That crow one would make an awesome album cover. Good work Z!

The Warp Beast and especially Demon Crow have a real Inuit art look to them. Fantastic stuff!

I've looked on the site they're posted on and read your little bit of blurb, and if I was going to be picky I'd say that the fact you went to all that time to place the letters individually doesn't really show - they wave up and down in a fairly uniform fashion.
They don't look bad, but they don't look 'odd' to my eyes, which seems to be what you're going for.

The font itself is good, though - can I get a copy, or is that not how Illustrator works?

BikNorton · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 10078

I really should commission you for something, Z.

BikNorton · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 10078

Wait, who was it who was doing the canvasses, that posted the abstract green background-in-progress?
