WELCOME TO THE INK CORPORATION ONLINE GALLERY - WITHIN, YOU'LL FIND A HAND PICKED SELECTION OF ART, OPINION, SCRIBBLING AND RANTING.

IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN MY VISION OF HOW FOLK MUSIC SHOULD "LOOK" - NO BEARDS, JUMPERS OR FINGERS-IN-EARS, THEN THE TRAD:ARR COLLECTION IS IN GALLERY 1. YOU CAN READ MY WELL BALANCED AND REASONABLE (!) ARGUMENT FOR THIS IN MY MANIFESTO.

ALL THE REST OF MY WARPED WORLD VISION CAN BE VIEWED IN GALLERY 2.

BIOG : DAVID OWEN : I AM A GRAPHIC ARTIST WITH TOO MANY YEARS EXPERIENCE IN ALL AREAS OF ART, GRAPHIC DESIGN, ADVERTISING, PRINT, TYPOGRAPHY AND REPRO. I AM HIGHLY INDIVIDUAL WITH A SOMEWHAT UNCONVENTIONAL WORLDVIEW - A WEIRD SLANT TOWARDS POP ART WITH A TWIST OF CARNIVAL THROWN IN FOR GOOD MEASURE - A BASTARD SON OF JOSEPH CORNELL AND PETER BLAKE. I'M HANDY WITH A SCALPEL AND AN APPLE MAC. I KNOW WHAT "RIGHT READING EMULSION SIDE DOWN" MEANS.

 

I AM JUST AS LIKELY TO BE FOUND DESIGNING A FLYER FOR A JUMBLE SALE, A BROCHURE FOR A SWANKY HOTEL OR A CD SLEEVE FOR THE LATEST ATTEMPT AT POP STARDOM. I LIVE IN WHITBY.
