A Turning Point, A Print, A Gift

Dear [Name],


It was just before Christmas, end of last year. Tony Kelly and I were driving back from a shoot in Miami—sunburned, tired, half-deaf from the music he’d blasted all day. Pelicans were dive-bombing the water around us like lunatics.

Then Tony turned to me and said:

“You know, with AI eating the commercial world alive… maybe it’s time you doubled down on the real stuff.
On your art.”

We’ve worked together for over a decade—designing his first book Tony’s Toys, producing wild campaigns, late nights, big sets. But it was that one offhand comment, tossed out somewhere between the port and the airport, that stuck with me.

Since then, I’ve been working quietly in the background.

And now, half a year later—it’s live:


My first fine art print collection.


TAKE A LOOK



These prints mean something to me. They’re not commercial. Not algorithms. Just real, honest work I’m proud of.



I’d love your opinion.

Which piece speaks to you? What would you hang on your wall?

Feel free to hit reply—your feedback truly matters.

If you know someone who might connect with this kind of work, please forward this their way.

And if they sign up for the newsletter using this link, I’ve got something special for both of you:

🎁 I’m giving away a signed mini fine art print (A5) to 3 people who join the list this week.


P.S. These prints are currently available at introductory pricing, but only for a short while.

In a few weeks, everything will switch to inquiry-only pricing—just like galleries. No cart. No public prices. This is the best time to start.


Thanks for being here.
