Max Gregor Re-styled!

We are excited to show some new pieces of art created by Max Gregor. He has been having fun playing with his mark making and successfully produced some fresh images to add to his portfolio. Max says "I've been working very hard on trying to work directly onto the page and leave out any tinkering on the computer as I think it gives my work more personality and also adds emphasis on mark making."

Max Gregor At Glastonbury

Lucky Max Gregor got to spend some time at this year's Glastonbury Festival. Not only did he create this mural for the "Spirit of 71" stage, he also met Micheal Evis and Will Young! The stage was to commemorate 40 years of the festival by bringing back acts that where at the first Glastonbury 40 years ago. Max says: ".. the wall is inspired by Biba and poster art from that era, and will feature in a documentry about the festival 40 years on. It was easily the muddiest place I've ever had to work in!!..."
