Limited editions indicated are 250 - unless otherwise stated

Super Lennon Banana - Limited Edition Print (250)

Many of the best things about Liverpool come in pairs. The two Cathedrals, Lennon & McCartney, Liverpool & Everton Football Clubs, the Liver Birds and the Super Lamb Banana. The Super Lennon Banana's marriage of objects echo Liverpool's great history for trade, importing bananas and and exporting livestock. In this case combining Liverpool's greatest export John Lennon with the banana. The truth, however, is rather less elaborate - "It made me laugh!"

Livercock 3 - Limited Edition Print (250)

Liverpool's new mantle as European Capital of Culture has at long last thrust the city into the limelight. I felt a more media savvy approach was required from two of the city's most famous residents. I have replaced the Liver Bird with a variety more adept at self-promotion - a proud peacock with its beautiful rainbow plumage revealing the passions and cultural diversity of our city.

Garston Cultural Bypass - Limited Edition Print (250)

The decline of Garston docks and construction of the A561 bypass have both had a huge impact on Garston Village. The village I see as a heart - a living organism that needs to be cared for, respected and loved. My image, like the village, has undergone a bypass operation performed by an Apple Mac. Like the village, it probably worked better without it!
