International Women's day - Hillary Clinton

Hey guys,

Today is International Women's, to celebrate I'm posting a piece I created of Hillary Clinton.

The piece is using many of Hillary Clinton's inspirational quotes. She is such an advocate on Women's rights that she needs to be celebrated.

Maybe we will be celebrating her becoming the first woman President of the U.S. in 2016. You never know!

Cheers

Steve Jobs 60th Birthday

Hey guys,

Today would have been Steve Jobs 60th Birthday.

Steve Jobs' legacy is one that we are all immersed in - I'm even writing this post on my iPhone.

For this piece, I have used quotes about the man behind the legend, from Steve Wozniak to the person sitting next to me on the bus.

I hope you enjoy!

This is Apple 1.

Nelson Mandela

Hey guys,

Today marks 25 years since Nelson Mandela was released from Victor Verster Prison, ending 27 years of incarceration. He was given unconditional freedom.

Here is a portrait I produced of Nelson Mandela using quotes from different people about him. Ranging from Barack Obama to Annie Lennox. And Bono, of course!

I hope you enjoy this as much as I enjoyed producing it. The piece itself will be displayed at London's Woolff Gallery throughout May.

Speak soon.

Winston Churchill

Hi guys,

Winston Churchill died 50 years ago today. Earlier on I heard a very interesting radio program on BBC R4, about his funeral which was by people who were there.

Interesting fact - the cranes dipping along the river wasn't planned, the dock workers decided to do it themselves to pay their respects.

Anyway, I thought is post a piece I produced for an exhibition at London's Woolff Gallery, titled The British Bulldog.
