I’ve new work in The Opening Night of Art the Arms Fair group show on Monday. Cassetteboy is playing too. Tickets are available from artthearmsfair.com or the event page above. All proceeds go to Campaign Against Arms Trade . This Thomas the Tank sculpture will be on sale as well as a bunch of prints, comics & postcards to raise enough money to really #stopDSEI next time. We’ve also just heard that some stands setting up at the DSEI arms fair are up to 4 days behind schedule thanks to the actions of everyone who have been helping Stop The Arms Fair. Anyone who has put on any kind of exhibition before knows that being even one day behind schedule is a nightmare. I’m so happy.
You can help Stop The Arms Fair – road blockades happening now and until the 11th Sept in London to prevent weapons being delivered to the DSEI Arms Fair site. Check the Stop The Arms Fair website / facebook /twitter for details or just head down now to the ExCeL London centre and get involved. On Friday I’m going to be giving at talk at Conference at the Gates: Academics Against the Arms Fair. I’ll also have some work in The Exhibition of Art the Arms Fair trying to raise money for Campaign Against the Arms Trade. This is the first year there is a genuine chance we can prevent the DSEI Arms Fair from happening. Get involved!
Went back to acrylic paints for this one. Not sure why, but the idea of it has been making me laugh for weeks, so here it is. Hang it up in your break room at work. You can have it as a cheap (£20+) limited edition print if you like from the shop.
New one. Available as an A2 limited edition print from 7pm Sunday 20th August from the shop.
I was lucky enough to meet Pat Mills at Glasgow Comic Con (founder of 2000AD & writer of Charley’s War, Judge Dredd etc) and was surprised and honoured to find out he likes my work. Here he is giving a great talk recently (starts: 2:49) about the politics of comics & 2000AD and at the end gives a hearty plug for both Join the Army and the Action Man: Battlefield Casualties films which I made with director Price James, et al.
I have two distinct yet connected problems: I don’t have enough money to pay my studio rent next month and I have too many posters of daft drawings clogging up the same studio. If you would like a poster in exchange of some cash towards my studio rent you can have a meaty 35% discount, just use the code STUDIORENT for 35% off all posters in my shop until 8th August. Click here for the shop. If you’re extra lovely you can back me on Patreon here.
I drew this for a poster for the excellent The Moonlandingz, a fictional band made up of members of Fat White Family and The Eccentronic Research Council who are doing a real tour. They are very good at doing it and you should go see them do it. Tickets released on Friday at 9am here. The actual poster is below, after the jump.

Very happy to say I’m doing a new installation at Glastonbury this year. I finally cracked and built a corporate showroom for Shell oil. If you’re going, come down to Shangri-La and have a look.
Here’s an interview I did with The Morning Star last week. #Tories #Advertising #Trump
After the fantastic and unexpected news from last night’s election, albeit with the end result being a Coalition of Bigots between the Tories and DUP, I think it’s about time we got started building that Anti-Thatcher Museum I was on about awhile ago.I reworked the old Tory logo into something more approrpriate and I’m taking pre-orders for screenprinted t-shirts of it in order to raise some funds to get the museum off the ground. If you’d like one they’re £15 from hereI’m going to be working on the museum with Gavin Grindon who curated the The Museum of Cruel Designs at Dismaland, Disobedient Objects at the V&A and the museum on the Israeli occupation inside the The Walled Off Hotel. It’s going to take awhile, but it’s going to be good!Onwards!
These were spotted in Milton Keynes today. Photos via Special Patrol Group. More photos after the jump. Print your own here. And here’s a handy guide on how to DIY. In other news, I’ve been notified that I’m under investigation by The Electoral Commission ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
