Before I get on to screenprint this poster, Electrohúmedos needed a quick fix for next week’s gig in Jaén to be printed digitally. Here it is.

I’ve been invited to give a talk to the illustration students at Ballifermot College of Further Education. This is my second time and, as for the first one, I’ve created a poster to promote the talk.
It is done with mixed media and then assembled and manipulated digitally.

Hope you like it

Just back from Angouleme… What a fantastic place to be if you love comics. I’ll need a month to digest everything.
