Black And White on May 16

I recently did these two projects that ended up being in black and white which I really enjoyed doing.

Some logo and design work for Signia Asset Management.

I really had fun designing this logo for famous international photographer Cindy Frey. She has just opened up a gallery in Belgium.

Broadcasts Video Footage on May 02

Mad respect to Christian Mugnai who runs The Upstairs gallery and bar next to Spiga Dora in Durban. If you ever in the area make sure you go check the place out.


Installation on Apr 05

Earlier this week I shared with you an overview of the artwork for the newspaper offices I was commissioned to work on. Here are some quick snaps of the installation in progress so that you can see the final size of the wallpaper! This is by far one of my favourite projects to date!


Wallpaper Design on Apr 03

I recently had the pleasure to illustrate a ceiling wallpaper for the head offices for my local newspaper. My Dad used to be a printer at this company many years ago and I remember running around the printing machines getting my feet dirty with newspaper ink…I guess this stuff is in my blood huh? I will soon post some pictures of the final installation at the offices. This project also had a very tight deadline so considering what I had to do in such a short space of time I am pretty stoked with the final artwork.


The King Blues (UK) Skateboard is here! on Mar 27

Skateboarding and Music – two things that really influenced me as an artist when I was growing up. I am really excited to be apart of the latest Verb release! It was really great to work with the team as well as the internationally acclaimed band based in the U.K!

The Verb x Music Saved My Life series launches nationwide at TOFFIE POP 2012, 30 March – 1 April.
Click here to find out more about Toffie Pop.

“MUSIC SAVED MY LIFE (MSML) is a project started by Verb as a way of connecting creative people who are excited about making their art and supporting a good cause at the same time. It makes sense that a brand like Verb would be inspired by music; the innate and shared passion that is found so strongly in so many people – not just musicians. Verb is, after all, about creativity, with skateboarding as a metaphor for that.

The MSML series pairs up (mostly local) talent – musicians, artists, designers and illustrators, to create a limited edition series of skateboards, t-shirts and tote-bags. A portion of the money raised from the sale of the products will be donated to the SA Deaf Federation; the idea being, as Verb explain, “We can now use the music that we love so much to aid those who aren’t able to hear it.”

The MSML collaboration features the following:
Die Antwoord – Ninja
Fokofpolisiekar – Louis Minnaar
Zebra & Giraffe – Alice Edy
The King Blues – Wes van Eeden
Fuzigish – Merwe Merchand Le Roux

Here are the other products in the release.


Keep It Simple on Mar 14

Here is a super simple illustrated map of the North Coast of Durban. Lately I have been exploring how to illustrate in a super simple style. Here is my first attempt at it.
