Graveyard Tapes / Our Sound is Our Wound

Graveyard Tapes - Our Sound is Our Wound

Available to pre-order from Lost Tribe Sound - click here

I was extremely pleased to be asked by Graveyard Tapes and Lost Tribe Sound to make the artwork for their album Our Sound is Our Wound. The album is absolutely stunning and it has been a pleasure to be able to work with them (for a much more eloquent review, see this). I'll be sharing more of the artwork in time, but there are a number of different packages available, all handmade (by myself and Ryan of Lost Tribe Sound) and limited editions. I highly recommend giving the album a listen and investing in these extremely talented artists.

Mixcrowd

I've started a new blog, to try and gather people together who enjoy making mixtapes and pictures. Mixcrowd is now live and looking for people to contribute, kicked off with a not-particularly-good mix by myself, with this GIF to illustrate it.

I've also recently created a facebook page which you can like, if you feel that way inclined.

Guy Gelem

I had the privilege of making the artwork for the new EP by Guy Gelem, 'Eighteen Minutes', which you can download now for a mere £2. Guy is extremely talented and I would definitely recommend purchasing the album, it's rather good. Released by mini50 records.

Download here.

Build

Things probably seem a little quiet on the drawing front but I assure you I have been making work, most of which I can't really share yet. For now though, here's a little peek at a big drawing I finished recently.

Cards

Designed my first ever set of Christmas cards this year, though they are not all that 'Christmassy' they are now available to purchase through my shop HERE.

Each is a Risograph printed concertina, blank on the reverse for your own message. Printed on recycled stock, with recycled envelopes and biodegradable sleeves.

Hope you like them.

The fine folk over at Ohh Deer have recently released a range of delightful sweatshirts, including a few of my designs with them. Shop here.

Tohu Va Vohu / Trailer

For those that have been here a while, you may remember that I was working on an animation a while back. Well it is now finished and I am very pleased to share the trailer with you here.

Title: Tohu Va Vohu
Direction/Animation: Jamie Mills
Music: Glacis
Running time: 5:30



Thankyou so much to Glacis for creating the beautiful score for it which is available to purchase here.

I'm currently in the process of applying for festivals with the finished piece; as well as this there will be a physical release, including a book, DVD and CD which should be very nice.

Hope you like it, comments, feedback, sharing and the like are greatly appreciated.

TRACES - Landscape

This was the piece made for the Traces exhibition a couple of weeks ago. The exhibition was recreating a Victorian era public house and this piece is roughly based on a painting from the time by Francis E. Jamieson.

The original drawing is now available to purchase from my shop.
