Taun-Taun Rider for May the 4th Be With You
Taun-taun rider is my piece for the May the 4th Be With You Star Wars show. I had never seen and of the Star Wars films (i know, i know!) so when i was asked to take part in the show i figured i’d better get my act together and watch it. Turns out Star Wars is my new favourite thing, the characters and environments totally captured my imagination and i had a wonderful time coming up with this piece for the show. May the 4th Be With You is from the same organisers that brought you the Icons show last year, which was an absolute smasher. See you there, i’ll be the one with the pink Princess Leia hair do!
Acrylic on stretched canvas. 12′ x 12″. £100. Comes signed and ready to hang. Please get in touch with the show organisers if you would like to purchase my art, or any other art from the show.

From the May the 4th Be With You site:
May the 4th Be With You opens Friday May the 4th from 6pm, FullCircle will be transformed into a gallery not so far far away, hosting not only a huge display of vintage Star Wars toys including over 100 carded figures and boxed vehicles, but a contemporary / lowbrow look at the Star Wars universe supplied by over 30 artists.
All the art will be available to purchase on a first come first served basis and any remaining items will be available from the Hang Gang website after the exhibition ends. There will also be vintage collectibles available to purchase too, including loose & carded figures plus other rare gems. Live music will be supplied by the Cantina Band and the evening will culminate with a screening of Star Wars, watching this master piece on mass with a beer in your hand, what more could any fanboy ask for.
