Great Scott! Back to the Future is back in cinemas today! 🚗⚡🎬 Happy #BacktotheFutureDay

Still a bit surreal to see this piece from the BBC. It’s been an unexpected journey from making fan art to working on projects I could only dream of. I’m so grateful to have my story shared, and honoured to be part of the AMPjam show raising money for Edward’s Trust. buff.ly/blWJs6P

Last week marked one year since Drew Struzan passed. I happened to be in some local charity shops and came across two rare 1973 album covers by him that I didn't have in my collection. Nobody painted like Drew. Some of us built our lives chasing it because of him. We miss you dearly, Drew. 💜

RIP Tony Seiniger. He did so very much throughout his career from Jaws to Total Recall, to introducing Drew Struzan to the world through movie posters. Drew’s career was significantly shaped by his agency, which created many of the most iconic movie posters ever. musebyclios.com/film-tv/tony...
