The Pen & the Palette Knife

Me and my pal Sean Robertson had a cracker of an evening on Friday 26th April at the Vapes of Wrath store in Long Beach. I took this opportunity to sell some posters and meet some fab new people. My stuff will be on sale at the store for 3 months. So get over there if you want some art, or you’d like to try some of their delicious vapes (way better for you than tobacco and much better tasting – I tried some and it almost made me want to take up smoking again!)

Big thanks to Sean, Michael Ziobrowski (the other great artist on the bill), Jourdan Alexandre Gallemore , Sherwøød Søuzankari , and James Demetra. Anyway, here are some piccy-wiccies from the show:

The Pen & The Palette Knife Art Show

Ben — Fri, 26 Apr 2013 18:51:25 +0000

Getting busy for my artshow in Long Beach on Friday 26th (today). It’s at a place called the Vapes of Wrath (4103 N Viking Way Ste D, Long Beach, California) which is a supercool space that sells vapes and other cool stuff. My work is appearing alongside Sean Robertson – a fine-bearded gentleman who does music and art and all sorts of creative malarkey. It all starts at 7.oopm. Hope to see you there, ya’ dirty bastards!

Here’s a brand new piece that I’m previewing (for your eyeballs)…Come to the show and see it in all it’s colorful glory!

Holiday Rawk Artshow

I’m exhibiting on 8th December at the Avec Nightclub in Huntington Beach. Below is a a little taster of the new artwork that I will be showcasing. I have a total of 3 new pieces to show that represent my current love of color and decoration. I also have new posters that I will be selling for $10 only! Get tickets online (not on the door where they will be WAY more expensive) I have to flog at least 20 before the 5th December and I’m way behind on my quota! get them here for just $10 each http://www.rawartists.org/benfellowes (click the following link “Buy a Ticket for this Artist“ to buy a ticket for the show)

It should be a great show! The Avec Nightclub is total swank and there will be bands and fashion and all kinds of malarkey! If you’re in the area come visit me at!

This is the major piece I created for the show.

Done entirely in biro and gel pen…say what!!!

This is the rough inked version – come to my show to see it in all it’s colorful glory!

Datadrone Project

There’s a really interesting art and music project happening in the Orange County artistic void! It stems from musicians Sean Robertson & Jourdan Gallemore who have got a bunch of artists and creative types together to contribute to a sight and sound experience – an exploration of man vs. machine and the balance between technology and nature.

That may sounds pretentious to some, but it really isn’t. Datadrone is very much a vehicle for a progressive band to do something different and interesting. I mean, c’mon! People must be getting tired of the rootsy band scene that’s all the rage at the moment where a few dudes in mustaches and tight pants play out the motions of being indie rock Gods!?

Anyway, I designed a T-shirt for their album release (above) that later turned into a live painting project at one of their recent shows at the Detroit Bar in Costa Mesa. It was fun and I got to meet some great likeminded people. Check out Datadrone’s Facebook page for more info. They really are a great live band and put on a show that’s actually interesting to watch and experience.

Here’s some pictures of me in action:
