The app (available now on the App store) is a sound reactive game where you have a set of different mouths to choose from that animate in time with your voice. The ‘Signature Series’ is being added soon and includes 12 illustrators including Pete Fowler, Jon Burgerman and me! You can see interviews with all the illustrators here.

Of course I have added a Paris hair signature mouth which you can use to impress your friends and tame wild animals:

I must make an announcement. I am very pleased to say I have started my first ever full time job. My new roll as Head of Content at the amazing design company ustwo™ will see me continuing to make incredible artwork but with added power to create stronger, faster, better projects!

This is beginning to sound like a soap commercial.

I’m going to be overseeing the studio’s work as it pushes its animated and live action content whilst working with a permanent team of really talented team of designers and animators.

This may mean that I might end up posting more work here on this site as i have always been a little reticent to plaster too much stuff here as I was always painfully aware it acts as shop window for clients. Look out for more personal projects here in the furture along with regular updates on the work I’ll be doing here at ustwo™.

Thanks for listening and stay tuned!
