1. New Blog

    I haven’t really been using this blog properly.. I was confused.. Now I am not.. 

    From now on, this really will be a bit of news from the studio - works in progress, snippets from new pieces and whatever else might happen to me (in a design and illustration sense) that might be interesting.. Rather than just sticking up new work, which you can see on my main website.. 

    Hope it’s of some interest to people :)

    You can always see my full portfolio at matthewjgriffin.com

  9. By my Illustrated Beatles Print for Charity

    THE CHARITIES:

    The auction is in aid of two very deserving causes:

    1) The Irish Motor Nuerone Disease Association (http://www.imnda.ie/)

    2) The Jude Miley Trust (http://www.thejudemileytrust.org/)

    The proceeds from the auction will be split 50/50. This is of course a risk - if the piece doesn’t raise much, then neither get anything worth talking about. So please SPREAD THE WORD, and hopefully we can get it bumped up…

    THE ITEM

    …Is a Archival pigment print, 45 x 45cm, on Hahnemuhle 308 Photorag mounted to 5mm black substrate. of ‘I Want To Hold Your Hand’ - my piece for the recent exhibition ‘The Illustrated Beatles.’ 

    It is only ONE OF TWO that exist in the world. I have to get a 2nd one printed for further exhibitions of the show, but intend to keep that one myself. 

    THE AUCTION

    I’m just going to keep it simple - between now and 18:00 Monday 12th Nov, I will accept bids for the print - via email (matt@matthewjgriffin.com), Twitter (@MJGillustration #IWantToHoldYourHandAuction), and Facebook (www.facebook.com/mjgillustration). Simply let me know your bid, and every now and again I will post the current highest. At 6 on Monday, the highest bid will have won. 

    YOUR HELP

    Please, share, retweet, reblog, like, pin, poke, flip, dig - whatever it takes to get more people knowing about this :)

    THE BIDDING STARTS AT €75

    Good luck!
