Soooo as I mentioned in my last post, work is really sapping my time so I dont have a lot of time for personal work. The main drawing time i get at the moment is on the short train ride to and from the studio.
These are a couple of the sketches Ive done on trains of commuters in the few months since I've moved to Melbourne. All about 30seconds to three minutes. Hopefully I'll be able to share something more substantial with you soon!
oh and thank you to everybody who's checked out Cat Piano on vimeo. Its got an amazing response, something that I know all the crew is very excited about. it got over 100thousand views in its first 10days and has been featured on a number of very cool sites. Another cyber hi-five to the architects Ari Gibson, Eddie White, Makoto Koji and Jason Pamment for making everything happen :) Love Alex
Work has been pretty much consuming every waking moment for the last month so I havent got much new work to share with you. soo I thought I'd share some of the things that have been inspiring me lately (just to make sure this blog keeps kicking yo.)
Music Vid for NewZealandbadboys of punk/indie/pop- The Mint Chicks Animal Collective. My newest musical obsession. These guys have released what is easily one of my favourite albums of the year- Merriweather Post Pavilion. Its been on loop on my stereo for the last month or so. An unofficial music video for super tight band Grizzly Bear, created by Gabe Askew
A simply wonderful short student film by Lois Van Baarie
Off the Planet cool Video Created for Drawing Black Chalks by NitroCorpz
Also music related, a great double album I picked up this weekend- Dark Was the Night. Completely amazing, crammed with some of the most interesting american artists around at the moment. Listen to a few tracks HERE. And the official website-HERE not enuff for you? check out yayayeveryday for a stream of uberwicked inspiration. Last and unfortunately least is a little doodle i did tonight. Inspired by the Australian super kids Dappeled Cities
