ROMA


Just worked up some linseed oil lino cuts of some type logos for my friends ROMA surf-shop. A great small local company run by my lovely friends, the hardworking Rob Morgan.

Not only is Rob a talented surfer, photographer with an eye for everything but he's horribly humble and kind.

I created ROMA's logos hand printing and with a relief press, took 2 days to dry (due to linseed oil ink) then started working on colourings and digital merging with film photos for their imagery and advertising. I also wanted to create some narrative strange tales and thoughts adding simple line-work illustration to the mix, that works well with the beautiful, nostalgic, authentic feeling film images that rob has been taking.

Really enjoying it, love working with others and in particular to see where collaboration leads in terms of mind-merging fresh thinking and a mutual desire for pushing yourself with your hobbies/passions/skills/ to love your work and feel inspired to go out and do it!

so go check out ROMA , the boards are stunning.
