Bath Uni workshop

I had the pleasure to spend the day at Bath Spa uni with amazing screen print artist Kate Gibb. We hosted a day of freestyle screen printing with students, it was a great chance to experiment and get our hands dirty. Bath has a great reputation for talented students as you can see from some of the students work. Can't wait to go back.

New prints

I have 3 new prints available in my shop now. Take a look, http://www.marcuswalters.bigcartel.com

Print Okushon

Print Okushon has been set up to help raise money for the victims of the recent catastrophic earthquake and tsunami in Japan. A multitude of talented illustrators and designers (and me) have been asked to kindly donate a print that will be auctioned off via ebay over the coming weeks. http://www.print-okushon.co.uk

The Illustrated Ape

A few years ago, when I used to work in publishing I used to art-direct issues of The Illustrated Ape. I found these early flat plans for the 1976 issue, which if you ever saw it would corellate quite well to the finished magazine. The Ape is on hold for the time being but I hope to return one day and create one more mega issue.

Yesterdays Cat

A new print coming soon to the shop - and probably part of a new exhibition called "Yesterday's Tomorrow is Today", my first exhibition where I live in Nailsworth, Gloucestershire. More details soon...

Book shelves

I made some book shelves for New Future Graphic.

New Website

I have finally redesigned my website. I have used Word Press for the first time, I am no code master but am pleased with the results. The site is more in-depth with loads more images and sketches providing more detail about the projects.

Birds the word

Hurry Up Spring

Proud daddy

I am always amazed by new developments by Cherry, my little 3 year old. She has a healthy interest in painting, drawing and sculpture. Apart from my own sense of pride which is obligatory, it's a great reminder of how art and design is just about doing it, totally free without inhibition, or even a starting point. Watching Cherry reminds me that "there ain't nothing to it but to do it". Expect more on this subject soon!

Happy New Year

1st Post of the year - I want to try and post at least once a week this year as I always have lots of bits and bobs to share. Here is a bit of work I made for Joni's 2nd Birthday. My children's rooms seem to have themes for some reason - Cherry has birds in hers, Joni has cats.
