A tiny glimpse into the making-of my PLAY sign. 8 colours, painted with a combination of stencil and freehand. 4 letters cut, sanded, varnished and assembled by hand, and fitted with 10 dimmable lightbulbs 🌈

Just some of your photos and videos that you’ve sent me over the past few years, showing off your Show Pony pieces ❤️❤️❤️ I’m so grateful to you all for making it possible for me to do this as a job… And now that my kids are back at school, I can get going again! If you’ve been tempted for a while to commission your own sign, now is a really good time to get in touch 🌈

‘YES’ - I’ve added another bench off-cut to my website. This time a pastel ‘YES’ with a hint of circus

Original artwork. 45 x 24cm. Paint on ply wood. Signed one-off
.
For this series of bench-off-cuts I laid stencils over freshly painted sheets of wood, and used them as a work bench for many months. During which time paint splatters and marks have built-up. I’ve slowly started cutting the benches up and peeling back the stencils to reveal lettering, and make these one-off signs. Elements of the lettering is painted by hand afterwards, and they’re finished with UV-protective varnish. Signed on verso

'A BIGGER SPLASH'. A collaboration with @caboodlemagazine, inspired by David Hockney. It's not too clear in this particular photo that the SPLASH had lightbulbs; necessary for an onomatopoeia we felt!

Mouse Town at Tractor Fest. While it was fun and sometimes satirically quite funny watching the tractor and steam engine displays, this was my absolute highlight. Two-years running and it did not disappoint 🐁

BIG mirrors were a total sell-out at my last pop-up, and I’ve made 8 more
.
With the necessary packaging needed for shipping glass, they take-up quite a bit more space in my studio than I anticipated so they might very well be the last 8 that I make in this size and style. So get one while you can, they’re a bit fancy!

I'm slowly making my way from arcade to arcade, wasting 2p coins. Last weekend it was the one at Sandy Balls (it's definitely not one that's going to end up on my recommendations list, my son did win some horrendous raspberry sherbert though)
