I'm delighted to announce that this illustration has been shortlisted for the Poster Prize for Illustration 2019, a competition organised by The AOI and London Transport Museum.

The theme is 'London Stories' and my illustration is inspired by a story about Jimi Hendrix. It is rumoured that all ring-necked parakeets living in London originate from a pair he released in Carnaby Street in the 1960s.

The artwork will feature in an exhibition at the London Transport Museum, which runs from 8 February until 14 July 2019.

Poster Parade: Re-imagining historical posters at the London Transit Museum from 27 January to 27 April 2017.

Our brand new Poster Parade looks at some of the classic designs that have gone on to provide inspiration for a new generation of artists. Whether promoting sightseeing in London or travel etiquette, these posters show us how memorable designs and messages can be cleverly reinterpreted for contemporary audiences.
