Hello one and all!

I've had my head down these last couple of months balancing clients with creating a whole new body of work for my first book, It's How I Roll. It's all very exciting and I'm very happy to say it's nearing completion. Below is a sneak peak at the design and it's contents.

I'm also happy to say the new year will bring a big update to my website and a relaunch of my shop. There will be a stack of new screen prints, Giclee prints and some fancy threads to get your hands one. All limited edition, and under my new label, but more on that later!

So here's to a fun and creative 2010, thanks so much to everyone for all their support this year and past, it's been cracking! I hope you all have a fantastic holiday.

Happy Christmas and happy new year!
Tom (AKA Ginger Monkey)

Yes I know it's pretty gruesome but it is halloween!! My twitter followers will know that I've been developing this delightful little guy on and off for the last few weeks. From sketch to final thing it's been a pretty disturbing affair to be honest. I'm a little concerned where my imagination is taking me. But like all things we don't want to face, I'm putting that concern in a little box at the back of my mind for now and will deal with it later. Doing this sort of work is just too much fun!

This piece is part of a new body of work I'm doing for my own book but I'm going to start selling this chap as a Giclée print in my shop. If you fancy pre-ordering one, fire across your email (address above) and we can sort something out. It'll be A2, on Woodstock Art paper and about £45.

Deeper in the post I've uploaded the original rough and a close up of the typography. Enjoy!

Computer Arts landed at my door the other day and I'm well chuffed to see my Tutorial piece popping off the pages. I had great fun creating this one. Get stuck in if you get a chance. Hope you enjoy it!

If you haven't guessed I really enjoy doing tutorials. I get to explore new things and the need to write, design and illustrate to complete the project tickles my tastes. Here's a new piece I've created for .net team.

Spotted this Illustration I did for Waitrose a little while back. Developed them a nice crown for their own brand of Gin.
