EXCELSIOR OUT!!!

Hearts On Fire!!!

 

Spent a highly enjoyable Saturday, screaming my head off, in service of my favourite team...at King's Cross' finest boozer, The Dolphin, as we destroyed a hilariously over-confident Spurs side!!

A massively emotional day for a variety of reasons...including some sterling charity work done by the club, and it's sponsors, on behalf of our deaf supporters...I wasn't crying...at all...honestly!!

I created the above image to honour the occasion!!

Excelsior Out!! 

"We're not here to be popular, we're here to compete!"

 

So the EPL, in their infinite wisdom, gave "Manager of the Season" to Pep Guardiola...rrriiiggghhhttt!

But we ALL KNOW WHO THE MANAGER OF THE SEASON WAS...RIGHT?!!

A new logo design for Newcastle United Supporters Club: London, as a "Thank You" for welcoming my son and I into the fold.

Can't wait for the new season.

#ExcelsiorOut!!

One equal temper of heroic hearts...

 

One equal temper of heroic hearts...my offering to the football gods...that the Carabao Cup might bear B/W ribbons on Sunday!!!

Excelsior Out!!

If I were a Carpenter

 

AT LAST!! After many months of soul searching struggle, my "Auf Wiedersehen Pet" caricature is complete. Hope it meets with everyone's approval.

Excelsior Out!!

For Tim

 

Not posted in ages so I thought I'd start with this.

"Auf Wiedersehen, Pet" was required viewing in our house. It's anarchic energy, sense of fun and risqué content was absolutely mind blowing to me. It's also a, completely authentic, drama about men under pressure. Displaced from their homes, and families, forced to find work wherever they could; a moving, beautifully told story which is as accurate today as it was then.

I have struggled capturing the likeness' over several attempts (too close to it maybe?) but, since the great Tim Healy followed me on Twitter, I have a new take on it. I'm finally happy with both the layout and likeness'. 

This is my pencil rough...next stage ink and colour...this is for you Tim.

Excelsior Out!!
