A Glimpse into Mark 1.

Well hellooo!


In my last blog I mentioned briefly about my next t-shirt ideas that will aim to be available in the run up to the 2010 world cup...I'm doing lots of designs then I'm going to bring them together to make something spectacular!


Here is the first bunch of rough ideas...please enjoy!

And one more little design to show you - I was thinking of using this for some stickers - maybe hi-jack some bottles of the drink and splash some self promo on top...you know the drill!

Many thanks x

Pay close attention - here comes the next dimension

So once more please may I apologise for the shere lack of web presence of late!

The Birmingham shores have been proving busy these last few months but I wanted to get back on the web for a bit of updating.

It seems like the way forward in this industry like many others is all down to networking so like a over wired socket I am trying to get involved with the local design networks in good old Brum.

As I have just been having a cheeky bosh at this I may as well post a pick - it's my first attempt at a bit of 3d stuff. It's very much the flavour of the month at the mo what with Channel 4's 3d week coming up.

You'll need the old 3d specs for it to sort of work...I say sort of loosely as it doesn't really work. Just a quick try any way. I shall have a proper go shortly!

I'm rather looking forward to the Channel 4 3d week. It starts tomorrow and you can see a full list of the shows here there's a whole bunch of cool stuff being shown from The Queens Coronation to Derren Browns latest bunch of treats. Bottom line - Pretty awesome!

If you want any more info then look here: http://www.channel4.com/programmes/3d-week

You can get your glasses from Sainsbury's stores... http://www2.sainsburys.co.uk/instoreoffers/free_3d_glasses.htm

In other news - some more things to show you.

Writer and extra-far from ordinary mogul Tiffany Lee ( http://tiffanylee777.wordpress.com/ ) kindly asked me to do some business cards for her... so here they are:

Thoughts and comments welcome, if you need anything designed then hit me - casio.johnny@googlemail.com

So other news includes a pipeline T-shirt plan including releasing a range to coincide with the football world cup in South Africa. The idea largely is around playing with sterotypes and smashing down barriers through this fashonable medium. I.e. Johnny Casio may have long hair and enjoy music - he may be thought of as another cliche, however he like many others is not. This is the same for many others so i'm grabbing a slice of the patriotic dream of winning the world cup and will have some initial drawings up very soon.

Thanks for reading this far down! Tell your friends, your mothers, your sisters and your brothers - Johnny Casio is here.

Thank you kindly x

A long time coming...

So ladies and gents, may I sincerely apologise for such a long delay in the blog roll!

After a busy summer doing who knows what and who knows where...galivanting has finallly ended and Johnny has re-charged the batteries and is back on form and reasy to rock...in drawn form.

This summer has seen Johnny explore into the stencil and canvas world and you can see some pictures below. If you like what you see and would like an icon stencil made personally for you then get in touch and we can work something out - these can be 100% customised for your tastes - size, colour...you name it we can work things out to suit your needs but of course!

Johnny is now located back in sunny Birmingham UK just so we know...erm what else can i say...more t shirt designs as ever are coming out and I shall get these out in t shirt form as soon as demand holla's!

Pictures below, I'd love to know your thoughts!

Anyways, short but sweet - so very sorry for such a delay but as they say! Let's hit the road Jack...the road is looking exciting!!

Much love, Johnny x x

So whadya know!

So whodda thought it then eh?

I've been a busy chap with all sorts of things at the moment, finally got a cheeky mo to slap on the lappy tappy too and hit the world wide web with some serious bloggage!

Last week i ended up on route to the big smoke of london to see the legendary Morrissey, poor chap, he's been knocked out with a throwt doo daa. So what to do now?

Horror fest 09!! Starting with Drag me to hell - in short, a brilliant comedy horror. Just had me all tense. Me tummy was in knots - i didnt knw whether to laugh or cry. A bit like going to see Jurrassic Park for the 1st time, I was about 8 and my mum was building it up that it was the scariest film ever made so i spent alot of the film with hands in front of me eyes. Turns out that film was brilliant in the end.

Next stop. Mr Wu.

Genius. Leicester Square all you can eat chinese buffet for under a 5er. Need I say more? Quite funny seeing Mr Wu himself kicking off because people are using his tables without his permission.

After the loverly romace and mood lighting provided on this beautiful sunny day we stopped off at this new attraction called the passage of Terror. Again, in short it were marvellous. Scary beeswax, give it a go. Its good fun.

Final film. Let the right one in...I liked it.

I'm rambling, had a wonderful trip in London but I haven't even told you about the Clothes show...I can happily and so proudly say that George Lamb of 6 music and Big Brother and other e4 itv2 like fame is the owner of a Johnny Casio t-shirt. I personally gave it too him and he was a loverly chap!! He was very passionate and wanted to hear more, it gave Johnny a bit of the old Confidence.

Lets hope he wears it!!!

Fanks for listening, new desings on the way asapasoon!

A tribute to The King Blues

So I got home today after a supoib meal courtesy of the fine cuisine offered at one Nandos with the sun still shining and embarked on a spotify adventure. Eventually I landed on the myspace page of The King Blues. A smashing acousticy bouncy gritty punk band whom I bloody well love.

I booked up some tickets to go see them all the way in October but that's pretty exciting, I'm stoked!

In aid of all this King Blues carnage...I did a new doodle. I would love your comments.

What do you think?

While you're here - please become a fan of johnny casio on facebook!

Don't forget you can get your Sunny Sailing t-shirt exclusively from the 'Merch' pages at http://www.johnnycasio.co.uk/ for a mere £12.50 - Bargain!

Much love x

We have lift off!

I do apologise for such a delayed blog.

It's been a madly chaotic last few weeks! Me mind has been everywhere graphical and stuffed with ideas but I have finally got some time together to sort every which way thing out and it feels good.

I can proudly introduce...the much talked of t shirt range entitled 'Sunny Sailing' and its functionability. AKA you can now buy them!! To give you a bit more of an intro - the Sunny Sailing idea was simply braised through the idea of starting this venture, so as the seas look calm and the ship is looking strong. Lets go.

You can buy them on the march page on the website http://www.johnnycasio.co.uk/

They are priced a mere £12.50!

Prepare for another update soon - it has been too long and these will be done regularly!

To give you a personal insight into what I am currently thinking...shame the weather has clouded over - I lept out of bed this morning when the sun was out in the anticipation that we'd have some BBQ weather. So bought the old food...then ended up sliding back home ( i was in flip flops) thanks to good old mr rain! Never mind!

Might have some beans on toast...thanks all,

Scrap that crap - weather doesn't stop a brai! BBQ is on!

much kindness and love x

Great Britainshire in glorious sunshine!

I can officially announce that Johnny Casio Design can officially, officially hit those shelves - I will have a full gallery of the 1st tshirt up and running soon as well as all the admin that goes with such things! These T shirts are priced at £15 english.

In celebration of such things I would like to invite you to watch two videos. The first one, if carlsberg did wedding dances...cheers youtube numero 1.



And thanks youtube numero 2 - 10 million views for this classic, if any of you hadn't seen this - I just had to get it out there!



In other news, I am currently doing all I can to visualize myself at the world cup in South Africa in 2010, I was born out there and have so much precious family out there it is brilliant. If you want me to design something then it would be a real pleasure - this is where my small charge would go if you're asking!

Its my favourite place. Thoroughly looking forward to the lions taking on the SA rugby teams...random sport outburst - everyone loves a cheeky bit o sport! Portsmouth v Newcastle is the one to watch tonight of corse! What are you doing?

when it comes round to this time of year you just want to be bbq-ing every night. This weather we've been having lately is so awesome I just can't get enough!!!

So keep your ears to the ground - all shall become official with the t shirts asap - in the mean time, let me knoe if you want one - you can contact me in numerous mediums thanks to the tinterweb. casio.johnny@googlemail.com is the email.
