Art and Things: Chris Pell

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009
Chris Pell is recent Brighton graduate. He’s 22. He’s made really cool illustrations for a few bands, like Metronomy, as well as some fantastic (and really unsettling) animations.

Art and Things. Hello to you Chris. Tell us what started you as an artist.

Drawing was the only thing I was good at when I was school. It gave me a lot of leaway with my mum and dad when they saw how shit I was doing at english science and maths. So when the teacher told me I might be able to get away with working in the artistic industry I jumped at the chance.

What influenced you in your early development?

My dad gave me a Boris Vallejo book when I was growing up and I just copied all the pictures in that until I moved down to Brighton and everyone thought fantasy art was lame. Took a year to realise I didn’t care what people thought and so i’m back on the fantasy wagon. I can’t get enough of it still. (more…)

Alessi

This weekend I was at the Camden Crawl with Anika.

We saw some bands, some good, some bad. Banjo or Freakout were bloody awesome. We went to the pub with Alessi, The Ark and friends and family on both evenings which was nice, and really helped the weekend along. Alessi’s Ark were fantastic. Above is a picture I took of Alessi onstage with a disposable camera without looking through the viewfinder. Originally it looked bad, but then I ran it through Photoshop to make it look even worse.

Anyway The Horse is an really nice song. Watch the video. (more…)

and it turns out that most of it’s invisible anyway. I’m now running late. Am annoyed.

Might as well use it as promotion for the new issue of Art and Things. If you want a copy, send me a postal address.

I’ve done an interview with Sophie Kern on Art and Things.

The more I do these interviews, the more I think I might fuck off to art school for a bit.

I need to buy more scratch cards.
