On the back of the Highbury print I created as part of my Homesick Project, numerous Arsenal fans have asked if I would attempt a David Rocastle illustration. He has very quickly become the most requested player I’ve been asked to draw, so I thought I’d better give it a go.
I felt it was important to ensure the Rocastle family were ok with me chosing “Rocky” as my subject. So I was delighted when his son, Ryan Rocastle, gave his backing to the piece. The quote I have used is from David himself and reads “Remember who you are, what you are, and who you represent”.

Arsenal legend Ian Wright recently decided to use my Rocky Rocastle print as the background for his official Twitter Profile (see pic below)
