The 3 images in this collection have been selected from my ‘Tube Lines’ project – an evolution of the commuting stuff I’ve been doing for some time. Here, each of the images was created using a combination of an iPhone, Rebelle Pro and Photoshop in London Underground tube line colours. Check out the individual images below for more detail.
The images are available as part of a special offer from Mark Davies Images for the next few weeks only; they are printed on 5×7″ (13x18cm) premium 324gsm Mohawk card with artist name/image title subtly printed bottom left/right of the card.

A typical London ‘You are here’ map was captured and worked on in Rebelle Pro and Photoshop. The black of the Northern Line was used for the ‘window’ leading, the blues of the Victoria and Piccadilly Lines for the River Thames and every other colour of a London tube line map for the remaining ‘window’ panes.

As a self-taught artist I’ve worked with a variety of film and digital cameras, experimenting with standard photographic techniques like composition, perspective, exposure and shutter speed to record images.
I decided to move to a more abstracted form of image creation and my daily commute to and from London seemed like a perfect opportunity to put this into practice. I started using an iPhone to capture commuters going to or from wherever, sitting or standing on a train trying to ignore each other by hiding behind a phone, book or newspaper. This became my ‘Phone Art’ project, with the intention of creating art quickly by capturing an image and modifying it using various smartphone apps to transform it by extracting and abstracting.
With more recent work, I’ve continued to use an iPhone as my primary source of image capture but use a combination of Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop for cataloguing and manipulating images and Escape Motion’s Rebelle 6 Pro for sketching and painting.
In an attempt to keep my work fresh, original and unique, I’m always looking out for something new to potentially inform my art and give it a new direction. Aside from my immediate environment, I get inspiration scouring the web, using Google Arts & Culture, virtually wandering around MOMA in New York or the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, for example. Or physically wandering around the National Gallery, the Tate Modern or Tate Britain in London. It’s always a joy to come across a work of art I’ve not seen before, or seeing an element or aspect in a work of art that’s previously gone unnoticed.
I hope my passion for art, and commitment to innovation and originality, informs my artistic style.
