Just before Christmas I made a real 3D copy of one of the fake Gameboy carts I’ve been making in my spare time, Frasier Fantasy, it’s was so fun and fulfilling to work on, so much so, that I will be making different games when I have time.
Playing Hades and every time I run into Meg I keep thinking of the bored nightclub girl meme
It’s just a phase
I was commissioned by the Louisville based chocolatiers Whelpdale Chocolates to come up with a complete redesign of their packaging for their mainline range of vegan bars, what you’ll see below are completely hand drawn packaging telling the story of the guy behind the chocolate - Gary Whelpdale - and how he came to find himself as the head of his own chocolate company.
It was a real pleasure to work on these images, I took great pains to get every aspect to my satisfaction, I hadn’t done much product design before and wanted to have my own spin on it, I wanted people to see these and feel like each bar was worth having, as if it was it’s own distinct experience, to tell the story of the taste through the imagery and colours.
I hope you enjoy looking over this series, it’s very close to my heart and when they launch later this summer be sure to check out Whelpdale Chocolates to order a few bars!
The past 6 months has been a difficult period for most of us, personally, during lockdown I didn’t really have a lot of work on, different things with work fell through and the pace of that side of my life slowed to a standstill. I was glad in a way, it gave myself and my wife the time to look after our small children while the government thankfully provided financial assistance for self employed people so that I didn’t have to worry about work as much as I would have normally.
When I had spare time in the evenings I missed drawing for the sheer pleasure of it and decided to make this gigantic image before you - as I sketeched it grew larger and larger and has now ended up in it’s final form as a huge A1 poster for kids and adults to colour in and keep afterwards. It was a fun challenge for me to make this crazy scene with tons going on and think about how a cross-section of a house might look.
I hope you enjoy checking out the images below and if you like a poster for yourself you can get one from my online shop here.

Clueless poster for a live screening of the movie at Belfast QFT
This image is from a series of wall murals I was commissioned to make for Belfast City Hospital’s Children’s Cancer Unit, this is a big image that sits in the videogame area, as you can see, Goose Game was a big deal when I made this illustration!
Some images from a huge wall mural I made for the pizza app Slice.

NEW BOOK ALERT!
Relatable Content (link)collects all my comics from the last year into a small self published volume. These were mostly derived from my work on VICE but as I pulled them together I thought it might be interesting to include some of the comments that the works drew from people on the internet who read them.
The commentary ranges from the kind and jovial to the baffling, and veers into dark corners of the web where the incels and conspiracy theorists live.
In turn, the characters from the initial comic then comment on the real people comments and so an insane echo chamber now reverberates from this cursed item ever outwards which is - exactly - what I was going for.
