Grimsthorpe festival poster and logo

July 5, 2011 By Leave a Comment

This latest work is a poster and logo artwork for the Grimsthorpe festival.

Grimsthorpe Festival 2011 will take place on the August Bank Holiday Monday (29th August), and is set to be one of the area’s most action packed events with over 50 live performances by musicians from all over the world including Africa and Brazil, as well as many national and local bands.

Founder and organiser Daniel Sumpton had the idea for Grimsthorpe Festival after visiting some of the UK’s biggest music festivals and seeing how much fun people have.

He said: “Grimsthorpe Festival is a celebration of the very best in music, the arts and culture. It is a place where we can all come together, have a picnic and listen to some fantastic music.”

For updates on the Grimsthorpe festival check out their Facebook page or the official website

Zeni Danussi Album Artwork

June 13, 2011 By Leave a Comment

Here is the latest album artwork I have been working on for guitarist Zeni Dannussi!

Zeni Danussi is a ” Melodic Rock Guitar Instrumentalist / Virtuoso,”  playing solid British rock and putting it into the main stream. Zeni Danussi music is no-nonsense, heads down, in your face solos and guitar riffs. The Danussi experience will put you on a platform of pure rock energy, thrusting you into a world of escape, with the guitars smashing you through a brick wall of serious energy / emotions.

Check him and his fantastic guitar work here
