Rough Portfolio

History of work which led to the creation of Knott; painting, drawing and sculpture oh my! A rough sample of portfolio work which documents the last few years of general experimentation.

Town of Knott

A place that cannot be found by any but those unaware of their need of it

Town of Knott. PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT.

Do you ever hear the flutter of wings?
Or sense some wandering eyes
through daybreak and night regardless of light
the presence of things unknown?

Knott PSA.

Citizen of Knott

"Who are you?"

"Nobody."

"Well then what sort of nobody are you?"

The Politics Problem

So after a long time of quiet and dissertation-ing I bring to you a promotion of my own choice. Why? Everything in my life inspires my art one way or another and a big part that dictates everyone's life is politics so here we go... 

The Blog

This blog is written by a person of my own age and comments on the current political climate in such a way that I cannot help my response to its eyeopening and blunt insight. It is honest and analytical not only of policy but also of the behaviour of those swapping barbs to rule The United Kingdom. 

As someone who cares about society but has never really done more than dip my little toe into the world of politics I consider this blog a down-to-earth commentary that quite honestly helps me understand the current situation of the country better.

Happy Valentine's Day Ya Filthy Animal

Call to the caro

You melancholic many
You dead who move
You overlooked souls
You, are who they seek
Glimpsed in the corner of the eye
Heard through the dark of night
You are who they call out for
You forgotten idols of life

The Species

Ligeia, Ichabod, Tamora, Charon, Hieronymus & Queequeg are the names of the creatures I am in the process of creating thus far

An update on the work currently underway in the dark corners of London Docklands.

A mix of pastel kitsch, childhood nightmares & juvenile wonderment carving slices out of reality so a new world may bleed through.
