    Whiteduck | Bristol Riders Series

    This is a series of three, two colour screen prints which are currently on show as part of the Bristol Cycle Festival Exhibition at the Howies gallery space in Bristol. 

    I took the original photographs at the finnish line of last years 'Hacksaws Challenge' bike race from the harbour side in Bristol to Queens Square in Bath and back again. I am in the process of re-vamping our online shop, and once that is done these, along with a few more bits and pieces will be available to buy.

    Cobble Wobble | 2010

    Last sunday saw the second ever 'Cobble Wobble' bicycle race in Frome sponsored by Charge Bikes. There were categories for all ages from the under 14's to the over 50's. It was a great day out, much fun was had. We printed up some t-shirts for the event and they will be for sale on the Cobble Wobble web site also. I am already looking forward to next year's event and Josh is planning to give it a go next time.

    Well done to Chris Akrigg for winning the overall Charge Bikes King of the Cobbles in a astonishing time of 21.510 seconds.... Wowsers!!

    See all my photos of the event on the WhiteDuck flickr page:

    WHITEDUCK | ARTCRANK

    Bikes are the world’s most fun, accessible way to get around. Posters are the world’s most fun, accessible art form. ARTCRANK brings them together.

    The first-ever ARTCRANK London show will take place on Friday, September 17 and Saturday, September 18 in the world-famous confines of Look Mum No Hands! The show features original artwork by UK artists, priced to let you put down a pint or three and still take home all your favorite posters.

    ................................................

    This is our contribution. It will be for sale at a price of £15 at the show, then if there are any left over I will put them up on our shop after the show.

    It is a 3 colour screen print on 270 gsm GFSmith Colorplan Bright White Stock. The main image is made from two photographs I took at last years 'Hacksaws Challenge' bike race (Bristol to Bath and back again).

    I am so pleased with the way these came out, especially after we managed to print them on perhaps the most humid day of the year, which played hell with the paper stretching fractionally along the grain. Still managed to get an edition of 30 with the registration of the three colours bang on.

    Wilco | Show Poster

    "....Chicago six-piece Wilco return to London following the release of last year's brilliant eponymous album. Critically acclaimed both on record and live, this is a very special chance to see one of the world's most respected and admired bands...."

    Tomorrow night Wilco play The Royal Festival Hall in London and we were lucky enough to print up a 4 colour limited edition run of 100 show posters which will be on sale at the gig. 

    The design is by Orlando based Lure Design Inc
