Aura painting at Stokesley

It is with great pleasure to announce a return to painting aura portraits live! First event of the season is part of the Stokesley Spiritual Development Circle Group organised by the wonderful Ray Bokor. 

Ray and I met so many years ago both trading at a number of events in the Goth circuit and always wanted to start a collaboration and organise something together. Ray is currently hosting a very successful series of events and I was absolutely touched when he invited me to take part in one of them.

On occasion I will be selling prints as well as doing aura painting (pre booking only). More information on the event to follow but all the details are on the poster.

Hope many will turn up, looking forward to being there and paint again like in the past!

Collaboration with Gothzilla

Finally able to go back to my blog with a copious amount of updates after what feels an excruciatingly long hiatus! Following a bad fall on my bike with the result of a broken elbow to mend, then what can only be described as the ‘infamous’ Covid 19 with forced isolation lock down and all related ordeal we are all even too familiar with, then the habit of not updating the blog despite being quite proactive anyway.

First update of the season has to go to the joint collaboration with the mighty Gothzilla, a very well known and loved band in the UK Goth scene. For an artist, there is hardly any bigger honour than being asked to produce the illustration for a band's album cover. In my case, in addition to being able to create something for a band I truly respect and admire, I also had the privilege of seeing their album titled 'Auras'.

The artwork created for the album cover

In addition to the album cover, tees were also produced. It was great to be able to wear a t-shirt of I band I love and with my artwork on:

Here you can see a video of Gothzilla talking about the album and artwork.

My humble wholeheartedly thank you to Gothzilla.

I truly wish the best success for the band, this and forthcoming albums.
