Whippets Chasing Rabbits / Switch Studios Exhibition - Nottingham

Been a bit quiet on the blog updating recently but only due to be being busy so now I've got a chance, I'm going to upload some new bits.

First is a set of canvases for the Whippets Chasing Rabbits exhibition at Switch Studios in Nottingham. Had to turn these around pretty quickly as it was all a bit last minute. The coasters I created for the urban homeware company PostLiving were also shown.

Many recognised street/graffiti artists exhibited and the opening was a huge success. My pieces are a loose representation of several emotions expressed by my character/pseudonym Captain Kris.

Big Captain!

Collection of Lost Souls - Leake Street

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.

Captain Canvas

Cold weekend and I've got a show coming up so I decided to have a warm-up paint and produce this little Captain canvas. Painted with spraypaint and acrylic using a sock (and brushes). There's a fair few of these on the way to coincide with my long overdue online shop re-opening so keep your eyes open as I'm going to do a bit of a give-away as well.

CAN.is ONE Live Painting

Here are a few shots from the CAN.is ONE birthday celebration at The New Empowering Church. Myself and Tops painted live on the night. The paint we used was a little bit tricky and the party was crazy but we got it pretty tight in the end. The night was a big success with live tattooing, visuals, a photography exhibition and cake.

You can see more shots from the night HERE.

Also make sure you check out CAN (Collaborative Arts Network). They're a great bunch and really up for helping creatives work together.

LoveDough Live Painting

Finally managed to get a decent shot of the final piece that myself, Obit and Tops painted at the LoveDough night at ProudCamden in January.

PostLiving Coasters

Recently I was asked to create a set of coaster designs for PostLiving who are a company working with artists to produce individual graphic pieces of furniture and other items for the home.

Other designs are also available by Si Mitchell, Tom Joyce, Boaster and the ever popular Pete Fowler.

The coasters are due to be released in a couple of weeks time but here's what you can expect to be putting your drinks on in the very near future...
