  • Streetfest 2013
    This year I was invited to paint at Streetfest with over 20 other artists. During the day events involving beatboxing, street dance, bmx, skateboarding, live art and music went on while we painted along the main stretch. Global Street Art organised the painting this year and there were many popular names on the list.

    My piece was an homage to the Avengers complete with decapitated cartoon heads and my fictional character self, Captain Kris.

    I met up with SPzero76, Si Mitchell and Squirl on a very cold Thursday to paint this collection of lost souls piece at Leake St. tunnel. In the evening we created some live at for the Test Space exhibition at Boxpark in Shoreditch. It was a lot of fun despite the cold and we'll be collaborating on a lot more things in the near future.

  • CAN Mural - Brick Lane, Shoreditch
    This is a project I worked on in November 2012, collaborating with two other artists, Mr.Phomer (www.phomer.com) and Raissa Pardini (www.raissapardini.com). The project was for CAN (Collaborative Arts Network) to help promote their organisation which helps bring freelance artists together to collaborate on various projects.

  • Secret Walls X Umbro X Footlocker
    Myself and 3 other artists were chosen as part of a competition to take part in a 90 minute live art battle for the semi-finals of the Umbro and Footlocker sponsored Secret Walls night, mentored and assisted by some of the more well known Secret Walls artists Riff, Alfa, Conzo and McBess.

    Myself and Riff took on Ewa Mos and McBess with them taking the win on the night. On the other side of the room Dyox and Conzo went up against Georgia Hill and Alfa with Dyox taking the win.

    The night was a massive success being hosted by Reeps One and Lethal Bizzle, the other artists were all great guys and I highly recommend checking out their work.

  • MK Paint Jam 2012
    Myself and other artists were asked to participate in the 2012 Milton Keynes Paint Jam in order to raise money for charity. It was a successful weekend of live music and painting in the sun and will hopefully become a regular yearly event. My 8ft X 8ft board turned out to be a mix of black and white characters, macabre tattoos and a pinch of hot pink thrown in the mix.

  • Alton Activity Centre
    This was a project I was asked to be involved with organised by Waitrose for charity to paint the walls of the Alton Activity Centre in Roehampton to make it more fun for the kids. The job had to be done pretty quickly and it rained all of Sunday so it was a bit of a challenge. In the end, everyone was really happy with the finished result and it made the whole place more colourful for the kids.

    The last image of the quote was written by a boy who goes to the activity centre and the spelling mistakes were kept in intentionally.

    'The Alton Activity Centre sits within the Alton Estate in Roehampton. Officially recognised as one of the poorest and most deprived estates in London. It caters for up to 200 children from six schools in the immediate and surrounding area aged between 5-16 years old from all ethnic backgrounds.'
