Style Spotting Some Santa

An occupational hazard for me is drawing Santa. Between now and just before I collapse on Christmas eve I will have drawn 100's of all of our favourite holiday characters. Most of them jolly bearded chaps with red outfits!

So to keep it interesting for everybody (including me) I like to draw them using various styles, and see if people still notice it was me that drew them. See how many you can spot this year!

I did this one yesterday, it can be found at The Riverbank, Truro:

florist shutters

A second peice at Jane Adele's florist in Truro. Last year I drew a big flower on the wall which is still there.

As this is painted on the roller shutters, this is only visible at night. Although I went over the edge so you can see the side bits during the day. They love it and have plans for more... watch this space... or their space

The theme is the florist's connection to their base in Porthtowan and in Cornwall. Kenny, the deliver driver, can be seen flying around the county in the delivery van, at the top.

The brief was: "Whatever you think." :)

Q Bar: Update 1

The bar re-opened on Saturday. It was supposed to be Friday but, despite everybody's best efforts, five days was not long enough to do a complete re-furbishment of a bar of this size!

I pre-designed the furniture and managed to get it built from scratch in these five days too.

Stuck around long enough on Saturday to see the bar get absolutely full! :)

Here are a couple of pics of the artwork during the hectic five day project:

The bar is complete and open and the artwork is still in progress so if you call in you can see it as I complete it.

More pics and finished bar and artwork coming soon..
