The colour palette is soft and subtle, beautifully depicting the memories that so many have of the earlier films. I wanted to not hold back and feature key details that draw in so many fans whilst staying true to my style of working.
The subject is so well saturated within the commercial art world and I have wanted to do something a little different, to do the films justice and not to portray characters that are different to how they were envisaged and conceived.
The aim was not just to create a scene that was really strong visually but one where you could start to spot subtle yet massive details that would hint at something deeper. An unbreakable bond maybe?
A key aspiration was to create a sense of movement and time passing yet within an arid and stark environment where the winds blow the sand across like waves, exposing objects previously hidden. The question is, are the winds caused by mother nature or from something about to land?
I wanted to create a scene that was moving, where those return from battles passed. By leaving so much to the imagination I hope that yours runs away with you, to re-engage with your childhood memories from a cracking era.
So much has been left open to interpretation here, it has been great fun to be a part of and a long time coming and I hope that I have done justice to such an incredible cinematic masterpiece.
Just as an aside, the song that inspired the overriding concept of objects being revealed and picked up by a strong wind that blew in was actually ‘Vermilion Part 2’ by Slipknot! Random yes, watch the video and you’ll see where I am coming from, possibly!

I chose to focus on a scene of utter devastation in front of the iconic Grand Central Terminal in New York City with a collapsing bridge adding drama as well as composition. This is shown in almost silhouette form as contrast to the warmth of the explosion behind it, the perfect opportunity to add the dramatic light source that features in so much of my work regardless of subject. Colours are massive for me, I obsess over them! To get the overriding palette from the Avengers to feature in such a striking yet beautiful way is particularly pleasing, as is the contrast between darkness and light, it was easily one of those pieces that just gets bigger and bigger with each hour that passes.
The biggest difference in this image compared to what I am known for to date is the inclusion of key characters, I have featured subtle silhouettes to date but this was very different for me and the result is even more dramatic, it really does amplify the sense of movement and each super hero bring their own quality to the scene. I love to leave details to seek out and try and piece together the narrative, these are here and in abundance, there is so much to spot within the image as well as a poignant reference to the passing of the hero without a cape, Stan Lee.
I hope you enjoy this piece as much as I have loved creating it, Avengers assemble!”

What an absolutely brilliant film The Lost Boys is! The ultimate vampire movie? Yeah I think so! It is the same as horror movies, I prefer those that aren’t all about gouging eyeballs out but instead have a multi-layered plot that you can imagine actually exists - that is ultimately more terrifying and believable.
That’s why The Lost Boys captured the imagination whilst instilling fear, it is one of those movies that you forget just how much you loved it and how scared it made you in parts. The point where the car roof was torn off and the occupants dragged out is one that haunted me as a kid and was no way going to ever find a place in this interpretation!
What I love is that it is another cracking example of how darkness resides so closely with normal life, where evil walks the same streets as those that will become prey. Under the bright glows of the board-walk and the iconic fair that dominates, the screams of excitement mask those of terror. That giddiness from the buzz and intensity of the rides and the crowds blur the lines between what you think you saw and what you actually just did. It has an almost drug-like quality to it and that is what I wanted to portray within my take on this amazing movie.
The rich glows of the fairground and the pier, the warm glow of the fire that burns on the beach and the beautiful sky all mask the much more sinister plot. Key details are placed within the scene, some subtle, others more disguised but all combine to not just pay homage to the film but to allow you to decipher what is happening. Where are the key characters?
By placing the fire close to you in the foreground you could imagine that Michael and Star are stood just behind you staring into the flames, possibly. That is what I love about not showing the characters within my work and by positioning the details in the way that I do, it means they are there, just out of sight but you’re part of it, you’re amongst them, right amongst them.
Another quality of the film and link to my work is that it makes you look at what is actually genuinely evil, and who if anyone is actually born evil or simply put under a spell, either by an individual or by life itself. It’s the battle to be set free, either yourself or a loved one, to win out and beat the curse and not to succumb to the demons even if you are bitten by life, or love.

I have chosen to focus on the surreal Jareth’s ball scene from the movie, the option to show within the maze itself was there but I wanted to do something much lighter, more classic. I set out wanting to create a beautiful, dream-like piece that is visually light but has dark forces working throughout the scene to mimic the qualities of the film that was unquestionably equally dark as it was bizarre.
I constructed the scene from scratch, utilizing parts of images that I saw potential in that allowed me to build my ballroom to match what I had in my head, one that drew from the characteristics of the one shown in the film but to take it to where I wanted to go. The composition channels the eye through the scene and up and out to the top of the steps to a point where you use your imagination to decide what is through the forest. This perspective creates a sense of journey that was key to the narrative, culminating in thirteen steps to the staircase - a nod to the thirteen hours that Sarah had to defeat the Goblin King.
There are subtle references within the scene that are from the film or an interpretation of elements, I will leave you to find these. The darkness that runs throughout is represented not just by traces of blackened smoke but by the thorns that weave down stone balustrades and break through the walls. This creates a dramatic contrast to the whimsical ballroom whilst also showing a continuation to past pieces such as ‘Marry Me Bitch’ and ‘Where Demons Roam’. The lead focus to the piece and to the concept is the open cage that sits on the stone column. The owl is shown flying away which hints at the Goblin King being defeated at the thirteenth hour.
This leads onto the underlying concept that I have introduced into this piece in that the cage represents Bowie’s disease that restricted him, the open door and the owl in flight symbolizes his passing and being free again. A single dove feather sits within the cage, you might expect this to be an owl feather but it is a dove to signify not being alone. I feel the owl in flight is a powerful image in itself but when you then look at it from this angle then it gives the piece a subtle and poignant quality where an iconic film, and genuine icon are have been respected.
