'Oh The Horror - The Shining' lino print

Here are some process shots to accompany the on-line release of my 'Oh the Horror' lino print set made especially for this year's Pick Me Up exhibition at Somerset House. This is a linocut print inspired by the Stanley Kubrick film 'The Shining'.  I'll post up the process shots for the other two next week. The final photo in the set is courtesy of the talented George 'Vengeful God' Simkin.

Prints are available now in my shop individually and as a set.

Print Club Group Show

I'm very happy to announce I've been invited to exhibit in the upcoming Print Club Group Show which begins tomorrow evening.  Given my time spent learning to screen-print at Print Club it should probably make me feel all warm and nostalgic.  As it is it's been a bit manic getting the prints done in time, for which I owe Puck Collective and in particular Babycrow a huge debt of thanks.  Besides nostalgia is one of my least favourite things; "Don't give in to nostalgia" and repeat...

Come along and see amazing prints by the likes of Heiko, Yann Brien and a heavy Puck Collective presence via Babycrow, Margaux Carpentier and Robbies Brown Shoes. Basically it's going to be the rad.

Pick Me Up 'Puckleduster' teaser number six

Today is your last chance to test your horror movie knowledge at Pick Me Up to win my new screen-print 'Oh the Horror!'.  I'm going to be there from ten this morning until six.  Find me and tell me fifteen of the eighteen films loosely referenced and you can take a print home for nothing.

This one's another tricky one unless you're a big folk horror fan.  The additional [and fucking ace] quote should help a bit too...

Pick Me Up 'Puckleduster' teaser number five

Another teaser from my new print 'Oh the Horror' and with the additional quote this one is a big clue as to one of the trickier references; tricky specifically because straight razors feature in a LOT of Giallo films.  I even spotted one recently in Suspiria in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment. 

As I mentioned yesterday the first person to tell me [in person] fifteen of the eighteen horror films referenced in my print either tomorrow or Friday will win a print.  So get along to Pick Me Up and even if you suck at horror movies you can make up for it by getting a straight razor tattoo'd on your neck.  WIN WIN.

Pick Me Up 'Puckleduster' teaser number four

I've been so busy I haven't been able to do quite as many teasers for my new 'Oh the Horror' prints as I was hoping to but here's another that didn't make the final screen-print. 

Make sure you come along to the 'Puckleduster' tattoo parlour at Pick Me Up and see what Puck Collective have been up to; there's some stunning prints available and you can get a temporary tattoo while you're there or just hang out and listen to Kyuss.  I'm working there on Thursday and Friday if you want to say hi and you can try and spot the eighteen horror films referenced in my print. The first person who can name fifteen of the films directly to me gets a free print!
