Mark Lanegan Prints Arrived Today



‎2 Mark Lanegan prints arrived today. One on left is on a slightly glossier paper so holds the shadows better, the one on the right is on matt paper and seems to hold more texture but gives up the deep shadows. I can't decide which one I like better, I may try a watercolour style paper to get some more texture before I start selling them in my online store. I always take ages choosing the perfect paper for prints. Which one looks best to you?

New Mark Lanegan Illustration


Mark Lanegan watercolour and ink. This is the large full length version as the previous photo was cropped and taken with instagram on my phone. A print run will follow so all you Lanegan fanatics like me get in touch for an original piece of lanegan collector art. This is referenced from a photograph that I took of Mark in London a few years back. It's cool that it's not from someone else's photo, makes it more exciting to do for me.

Mark Lanegan New Album & Interview



Mark Lanegan Just released his new album 'Blues Funeral' this week and I have been looking forward to this for a very long time. It's goood being a fan of Lanegan as over the past few years he has been releasing tons of music, doing guest spots on people's records and full albums with Isobell Campbell, Soulsavers and The Gutter Twins but no solo record since 2004's Bubblegum. So he finally got round to working on some solo stuff and will follow with a tour which I'm glad I have tickets for.

I just saw this interview on his approach to recording the album and how it was a whole new experience than he was used to so check out the interview and get the info from the man himself. This is the most I’ve ever seen him speak and he seems pretty happy to be doing an interview. Interesting approach to writing the album, writing and recording them all in sequence and only doing 12 instead of randomly writing tons and picking the best. I must say I wasn’t too sure about the album initially but now after hearing it a good few times it’s pretty awesome, very subtle songs and definitely takes a little while to tune into where its coming from and I highly recommend picking it up. Oh and I get my computer back on Sunday so anyone interested in purchasing any of my lanegan or any other illustrations will be able to do so pretty soon.

New Mark Lanegan Painting



Mark Lanegan Painting. This is a new black and white painting I did of Lanegan. It's loosely based on a photo that Steve Gullick took of Lanegan a few years ago but with my usual expressive stamp on it. I did a small sketch of Lanegan a few years back that ended up oin his Myspace page where I didn't give him any eye's so I thought I would carry on that tradition in this piece.

The Original framed piece will be available for sale soon with a limited print run to follow. So if your a Lanegan fan or know someone who is, this could be an awesome gift or wall filler.

Cheers folks.

Oh also available for artwork commissions if you would like something similar to this.

20" X 16" on Canvas Paper. Watercolors, inks.
