Into the Wild

Client: Self-Initiated / Steelarchive
Usage: Blu-Ray Cover
Art Direction: Self-directed

“ Two years he walks the earth. No phone, no pool, no pets, no cigarettes. Ultimate freedom. An extremist. An aesthetic voyager whose home is the road. Escaped from Atlanta. Thou shalt not return, 'cause "the West is the best." And now after two rambling years comes the final and greatest adventure. The climactic battle to kill the false being within and victoriously conclude the spiritual pilgrimage. Ten days and nights of freight trains and hitchhiking bring him to the Great White North. No longer to be poisoned by civilization he flees, and walks alone upon the land to become lost in the wild. "

Alexander Supertramp, May 1992
(Christopher McCandless)
 

This is my unofficial illustrated poster paying tribute to the great biographical adventure by Jon Krakauer, adapted into the film by Sean Penn.
 
This piece received a merit award in the 3x3 Magazine Professional Show No.13.

Steelarchive released a limited edition Blu-ray of the film including a slip case featuring my original artwork. I was also commissioned to create new artwork for the back cover and spine and decided to continue the scene around the full wrap. This edition of 500 is now sold out.

The updated artwork received an award of excellence in the 58th Communication Arts Illustration competition and can be seen in the 2017 Illustration Annual.

Twin Peaks Revisited

Client: Self-initiated
Usage: 'Leland Palmer' piece published in Twin Peaks: Glorious & Bizarre art book
Art Direction: Self-directed

Watching Twin Peaks at 11 years of age, the American suburban fairytale that I had grown up with through 1980s Television and Film was now permeated with dark forces from parallel worlds and a hidden underlying reality.
 

This is my ongoing illustrated tribute. During a recent trip to the US I visited some of the real world locations as I traveled through Washington State and took a lot of photographs which helped as added reference for some of the iconic settings.
 

For me Twin Peaks is a disturbing, funny, absurdist exploration of the eternal struggle between good and evil in the undercurrents of our subconscious.The mastery of mood and setting, including the stripped-back use of vintage colour palettes to evoke nostalgia that contrast with darker atmospheric imagery are key influences on my work.

Lonesome Traveller

Client: Self-initiated
Usage: Limited Edition Art Prints
Art Direction: Self-directed

 

Of all Jack Kerouac's books I found 'Lonesome Traveler' to be his most transportative and immersive, in particular a chapter where he journals his experiences during the summer of 1956 when he worked as a fire lookout on Desolation Peak in Washington State. 

Drawing from the startling imagery conjured by his writing and my own travels to the Pacific Northwest I made these visual responses.

A limited run of art prints are available here.
