Rock God

This was commissioned for Brian May's (Queen) appearance on the British radio programme 'Desert Island Disks' a few years ago. I got a call afterwards from his office asking to buy the original, asking I signed it 'To Brian'. I actually painted him a copy, but he wrote back; 'Just a note to say THANK YOU so much for the wonderful painting- my admiration of your skills knows no bounds- I really appreciate this great treasure and will immediately put it on my wall! Cheers Brian', enclosing a signed print of the painting along with his latest CD. Though I've occasionally sold work to other people, this is my favourite story. It's rare to actually hear what they think of my work.

Uh-hu


Here's a guitar, fit for the King, I painted when I was a student. Bit late for the Elvis challenge, but what ho.

Action Heroes

There's dancing in the streets; it's a caricature conga and I'm going to join the back of the line. Kick out those heels!


This was for an article about ageing action heroes, with the return of Rocky, Die Hard and Indiana Jones imminent. My rough pencil sketches of the heads, though the final painted version can be found here.
