Welcome!

• Introduction • Comments Off

I have had an online presence on my blog at Suggymoto.com for a few years but my artwork has merged with and become lost amongst the other interests that I blog about. I therefore have decided to set up a sister-site which will showcase just me. There may be quite large intervals of non-activity as I juggle my non-art career with the short amount of spare time I find myself with.

Thanks for visiting, and hopefully enjoy!

Zoom Lens Practice

May 6th, 2013 • Photography • No Comments »

Yesterday I purchased a new lense for my Canon EOS 400D.

A Tamron AF55-200mm DI II Zoom Lens to be precise.

I have to say from the off – my photos are looking much better just by being able to add depth. I’ve always been a fan of photos that give the idea of distance; for example two people stood one in front of the other. One is perfectly focused, the other is blurred.

For me, this helps center a picture and guide the viewers eye to the correct composition.

A few examples of my practice photos.

iPhone 5 Jailbreak Theme

Apr 26th, 2013 • Design • No Comments »

A complete theme overhaul for my iPhone. I consider this art due to the work I have put in with the icon design. Incidentaly, the icons you see are actually folders – very different from the staple Apple folder preview icon.

Created using the following jailbreak tweaks:

  • FlatIcons
  • DayClock Kustom – Tap
  • Slide to Unlock Killer
  • Bars
  • Five Icon Dock
  • FolderIcons
  • Zeppelin

Lighthouse

A long weekend trip to Plymouth, England gave some great opportunities for some nice photos.

This Lighthouse is situated on Plymouth Hoe – where Sir Francis Drake was said to be playing Bowls when the Spanish Armada attacked in 1588.

That Rock And Roll Image

Jan 31st, 2013 • Fashion • No Comments »

A photo I took a few years back. I feel it epitomises the fashion surrounding Rock and Roll, and how fashion can actually be more important to some people than the music itself.

Adjusted colour post-shoot.

Inspired by the film which was on ITV a few days ago.


A quick job, I’m not entirely happy with it but no more time to spend on it.

Purple Girl

Its been a while since I drew anything so today decided to spend some time honing up the old skill set.

Quite happy with the outcome, although I think me choice of subject matter might land me in a spot of bother… Its only art! Anyway I prefer drawing the female form to anything else, so what else am I supposed to do?
