Art at the Chilli Farm...

 I was chuffed to be asked to do a wall mural by The South Devon Chilli Farm crew. Though I did chicken out slightly and decided to paint it onto a wooden panel rather then straight onto the walls. Its 8 x 4 feet and will go up in the brand new and eagerly awaited, expanded shop and cafe. It probably had about 6 coats of maximum hold hair spray as most of the line were done with charcoal!

The new shop should be opening next week so if anyone is around the South Hams please pop in for shots of the worlds hottest chilli (followed by shots of milk) and chilli chocolate samples.

A custom art surfboard with shaper Luke Young

This is a short film showing artist Diggy creating custom art on a hand shaped surfboard by Luke Young. It shows the whole process from painting the artwork on to the blank step by step, to Luke glassing the board and finishing it off ready to wax up and ride. The board was commissioned by Panda Eye surf photographer Ollie Howe and was created in South Devon.

This film was sponsored by Avalaan
The soundtrack was by Blue Tech
