Welcome back! I hope that you all had a nice festive period. I certainly did! It actually felt quite long for a change (never long enough though, eh?). I know I’m a little of the pace with this, but I thought I’d jot down a few of my goals for 2011 (I’m not totally comfortable [...]

One Week in Hueco: #07 of 30: Girls of Juarez (V4) ★★, originally uploaded by Ben Grubb. Last month I was fortunate enough to get to go back to Texas and climbing at the incredible Hueco Tanks. I’d been so looking forward to it as well. After a year of huge changes and experiences (which [...]

Urban Climber #36, originally uploaded by Ben Grubb. I’ve finally (thanks to Ben) got a copy of Urban Climber #36 with my photo of Snoo on ‘Gripper’s Traverse’ in. My shot won their PhotoPost competition a few months back, but it’s been a real struggle to get hold of a copy of the magazine! It [...]

We were a little worried, as initial weather reports had looked a bit dodgy, but we ploughed on regardless. I’m very glad we did! After an initial [...]

Here’s another piece of recent(ish) artwork. This was (and possible still will be) part of a set of posters advertising PrAna. I really love PrAna clothes, as well as their design and branding. Marvelous stuff! I wanted to design something which could still fit in with the same sort of feel of what they have [...]

Barbed Wire, originally uploaded by Ben Grubb. I haven’t posted anything for while, so I thought I’d share this. It was taken at Bowles Outdoor Centre in Eridge. We’ve spent a lot of time down there climbing recently. Since getting back from the States, climbing indoors hasn’t really “done it” for me. It’s been nice [...]

The B² Productions have been very busy again of late. After getting the Castle video finished, we spent a wet afternoon in Colorado putting together a short video about me and Benny working our “long term” project in Yosemite, CA – Zorro (V4). I hope you enjoy it. I think it’s our best work yet. [...]

Hello. Greetings from Boulder, CO. Apologies for the lack of updates recently – I assure you, there is plenty to show and tell, but I just don’t have the time to get everything sorted and posted right now – I will though! Anyway, I thought I would post this here. I (along with Benny under [...]
