Alex has been working as an illustrator for more than 20 years, creating rich and thoughtful pieces with a combination of hand drawing, collage and digital techniques. Focusing on the subtleties of body language, his empathetic approach has worldwide appeal; from editorial, design and advertising industries, to live events and murals. Most recently, he has begun to enhance his work with delicate movement, bringing small moments to life as animated gifs.
The Stones Roses' harmonious blend of melodic six-string pop and psychedelic rock and roll still remains, after all these years, both fresh and vital. Whether it's the slithering, narcissistic arrogance of "I Wanna Be Adored", the soaring chorus of "She Bangs the Drums", or the funky workout of "Elephant Stone", The Stone Roses has more highlights than a David Beckham career retrospective. But more than that, it's a cohesive album whose seamlessly sequenced song cycle begins by devilishly taunting "I don't have to sell my soul / He's already in me", and ends with the deliciously arrogant declaration "I am the Resurrection and I am the Light." True to the words of its bookends, the entire album is pompous and defiant, each song crackling with ambition and hunger.
