Reproductions



I usually dislike reproductions of great works of art, 
onto objects such as mugs, tops, umbrellas etc.

 However, whilst recently researching for my dissertation I found this graffiti reproduction
 by Dominic Swords 
of 'The Great Wave' by Hokusai
 in Coldharbour Lane
 Camberwell
London

A piece that I feel actually captures some of the intentions of Hokusai and creates as near as the feeling of the original print as a reproduction can.

Children's Stories












I blame my parents for my obsession with illustration,
 for reading to me stories by the likes of:

Beatrix Potter
 Nick Butterworth - Percy and the Park Keeper
 Madonna - The English Roses
 Maurice Sendak - Where the wild things are

Thankyou Ma & Pa

Keith Haring








After going to the 

Keith Haring exhibition
 Palais de Tokyo
Paris

 I was inspired by Haring's work and his life. 
Here are a few of my favorite images of Haring himself and his works.

Miffy






Found my love for Dick Bruna's Miffy character again
after finding some postcards from my childhood
Also by finding out Bruna was influenced my Matisse

Striped tees and customized wigs







After watching Modern Masters: Warhol 
I was inspired once again by Andy
This time by his fashion
His striped tee and customized wigs.
