Having been asked by Reece to create special art for the show, Sue and I had a wonderful night as press night guests for 'INSIDE NO 9 : STAGE FRIGHT'. Lovely as always to spend some time with Reece but finally got to meet Steve and chat with fellow guests Danny Robins, Tim Key and Jeremy Dyson.

The news is out! My latest artwork for @dannyrobins.bsky.social 'UNCANNY'! Next Friday #UNCANNY returns to BBC Two and @bbciplayer AND the brand new visualised podcast UNCANNY: POST MORTEM screens directly afterwards, next Friday 31st of January. You may also see a new spooky animated opening...

Wishing everyone a very merry Christmas!

As unveiled at the Royal Festival Hall last week, here is the UNCANNY Christmas art that I created for the season specials. Spookily, I added the silhouette of Luibeilt to the snowy landscape without knowing it was to be the subject of the first special episode 💀 #uncanny

What's Christmas without a few spirits? The film that led to me being asked aboard #TeamUncanny. My first feature BORLEY RECTORY is available on a wonderful BluRay from Nucleus Films. Featuring the talents of Julian Sands, & @reece-shearsmith.bsky.social www.nucleusfilms.com/borley-recto...

Designing this years UNCANNYCON art my mind instantly went back to the Thames TV intro. A smattering of that plus a lineup from 'Arthur C Clarke's Mysterious World' for the reflection. That Thames intro always signalled time to run in terror from 'Armchair Thriller'! #uncannycon

Excited to be off to UncannyCon on Sunday! It's been a crazy year joining #TEAMUNCANNY to provide both art and animations for the podcast and TV series. Thanks to Simon at Bafflegab and to @dannyrobins.bsky.social for inviting me back. Hope to see some of you there ! #uncanny 💀

ONLY 12 DAYS TO GO until #UNCANNYCON 2024 at the Royal Festival Hall😱👻‼️ One of our celebrity guests is the inimitable @reece-shearsmith.bsky.social😱 Reece will be joining me and Evelyn Hollow for a very special Uncanny Live, investigating brand new chilling cases… See you there! #UncannyCommunity 👻👻

Huge thanks to Kier-la Janisse and Severin Films for inviting me to create the opening titles for THE HAUNTED SEASON...coming to Shudder in December!

Now that the animation decks are clear again, it might be time to do a bit more painting... In the meantime do PM if interested in any of the paintings or for a commissioned piece 💀
