Five works and a dislike for your work…. it’s how we evolve that matters
Five images, none of which are related each other but which ultimately tell a tale of how the artist might be thinking and influenced by his surroundings. Today I finally got to scan the images and uploaded into my image galleries at stephenignacio.smugmug.com. I needed to do it after someone asked me for an interview… Read more

‘Living in a box’
Back in March I started this illustration in which I wanted to depict my own perspective of a lockdown through my surrealist-type illustration. As always with me it is never as easy or cut and dry as following a brief. I like things to evolve organically and with this illustration that became a natural thing.… Read more

A look at Gibraltar under lockdown
Like many others from working in sports and seeing it come to a halt there has been a necessity to make changes among which has been to assist with others areas. Having worked in news for quite a few years now before focusing exclusively on sport means that it was not a difficult transition as… Read more

Some projects come to a natural conclusion, others come to a pause, but you sometimes feel as if they suddenly concluded, only to find yourself returning to it and discovering it was just a pause. ‘Our People’ was probably one of those great moments in time for me. A solo exhibition which launched Space 92,… Read more

Ideas in sketchbooks are worthless if hidden
Some many years back now working for Vox newspaper I was fortunate to be given a freedom to write articles which were not necessarily part of the Main Street news scene. Yes I am a reporter, at present a sports reporter, but at one time I was in main stream news. Vox newspaper happens to… Read more

No pigeon-holing, please, even in P.O.D.
Some years ago I decided I was going to try out something different from just drawing on paper or designing for clients. Always having been interested in printing trying out to do some silkscreen printing was somewhat of a flop. You just cannot start trying to screen print at even a small scale with a… Read more

The best work sometimes comes unplanned
If I told you that many a time I have not even had a clue about what I am about to draw would you believe me? of course you wouldn’t. I wouldn’t either. We are all taught to plan our ideas, to sketch them out. Even when you go through courses they will teach you… Read more
