I had a real desire to create a new strange #selfportrait today. I had the idea of some sort a mud image. I think this came because all I seem to do of late is get muddy #cycling or #running :) so I popped to #cannockchase in todays fowl weather and picked myself up a handful of the lovely stuff. Took a while to work out how to light it. Has a bit of a #jesuschrist vibe going on. Was not intentional. Could turn into a series of portaits ..... if anyone is mad enough to volunteer. #photo #photography #blackandwhite #portrait #strobist #lighting #nikon #studio #mud #monochromatic #monochrome #splittone

A mega quick light test for lighting actors headshots.two light set up with reflector in a tiny space. No photoshop as you may be able to tell #photography #lighting

Decided it was time I had a new self portrait in my cycling clubs kit. #RunandRide #cycling #portrait #photography #strobist #studio #cyclist #nofilter #photooftheday

Can't beat eating a healthy muff. Sure that sounds a bit wrong!

Bath time with Bear. All I'm doing of late is watching adventure films. Reading adventure books. Drinking tea from an adventure mug. Cycling. Running. Getting fit. It's great. :D #BearGrylls #adventure

Christmas morning ride on the chase. Absolutely brilliant way to start the day. Well besides the over the bar fall by me. Jamies wet foot and lost phone then treasure hunt to find it. Right foooood time. #cannockchase #cannock #chasetrails #mountainbiking

The very first dark #christmas illustration featuring my two characters which have now gone on to become a continuing series of 14 illustrations so far. This was also the front cover to #morpheusTales Christmas special magazine. Happy Christmas #illustration #gothic #christmascard #horror #cardmaking #craft #xmas #photooftheday

A design I was working on for a character called Sundarken when I was teaching #conceptart for computer games. Never did finish him. Was going to be for a side scrolling platformer I thought. #computergames #videogames #illustration #wip #doodle

My 8bit pixel art of #Bofur from the #hobbit made for a completion only to discover it was only open to US residents only. Still had fun making it #thehobbit #pixelart #art #illustration #lordoftherings

An illustration made for Helen Calcutt @chatnoirphotos about the endangerment of the tiger. Made based on my shadow puppets series I was doing at the time. #papercraft #shadow #illustration #shadowpuppets #photo #photography #photooftheday #tigers #tiger
