A picture paints a thousand words

Sometime last year I started a lil project called the 'Lyrics Project' where if you gave me a line of a song [preferably not the chorus] I'd illustrate it for you! Psssttt for free.This year I thought it's time to bring it back with a twist, it's not just song lyrics but any quote that strikes a chord with you. Let's just call it the 'A picture speaks a thousand words"

So drop me a line via the contact me form with the quote/ lyrics and I'll do the needful!

Here are some of the artworks I've done so far, the bottle is a customised request by a friend ,with his own personal quote!

Against the grain should be a way of life!

It's so strange but i've been asked this question quite a few times!Why do you do what you do?Or don't you ever get bored painting?!
Maybe i'm alone when my answer to this is simply,because "I FUCKING LOVE DOING IT"
It's so sad, that for starters i have to actually verbalise it and the more saddening part of it is why do people have to ask that question.I'm my world do what you love to do or shut the fuck up!

For ever second,minute,hour,week,month I've spent labouring over my artwork the ironic part is,it never felt that long!It was truly enjoyable,liberating,fulfilling!!!Whenever i paint i feel uplifted like i'm in my little bubble  of bright colours and eclectic designs.Never has there been a day where I've had to get up and groan at the work in store for me!Guess that find your calling or following your passion.

Against the grain should be a way of life,
What's worth the prize is always worth the fight.

If that sound familiar its the lyrics to one of my favourite bands Nickelback and the song is-If today was your last day!

I've started a really simple wall mural to capture these profound lyrics,pics to come soon!!
