Moustachiod man every day by Paul Shinn

It's certainly that time of year again where men all over the world are carefully crafting their creations as women despair of their growing face furniture. There are some who can and some who can't, but many will try so here at the rally we salute all the mo bros and mo sisters and one in particular, Illustration Rally regular Paul Shinn who has decided to do something creative for the cause. He will be drawing a different moustachioed man every day for the whole month of November and raise money for Prostate Cancer UK in the process.

So fellow illustrators and tasche growers we salute you! Please check out his appeal and mustachy illustration here:

Please spread the word about his appeal and love for Movember!

News: Riot Cleanup Charity Auction!

As we all know, and probably a few narrowly escaped, the spontaneous looting in England caused all sorts of devastation. Both physical and social scarring fresh from the oppressive blight festering in today's society... Or something like that, whilst the politicians were sifting through the ashes trying to appear cleaner than clean, the real hardcore came out. Riot cleanup was all about putting things right and nothing could send out a better message of solidarity than the sight of broom brandishing twitterati and locals alike cleaning and dusting, making a point as they cleared away both the rubbish and the trauma. Here at the Rally we stand in support of the artistic community and their response to these events.

So in response to this illustrator Emmeline Pidgen has produced a limited run of 75 amazing A2 4 colour screen prints.

A little more about the project from Emmeline:

"I recently I illustrated a poster supporting the riot clean ups across the UK. The poster had a jaw-droppingly positive response on the internet, with over 19,000 views in two days.

Prompted by it's success I have organised (with the help of Riot Clean Up Manchester ) getting it made into screen prints to be auctioned for charity. We've had an amazing amount of support from the press, Manchester City Council and businesses affected by the riots.

The auction's on now and absolutely all the money raised from the auction of them goes to Reclaim Project and Leap Confronting Conflict charities who do amazing work with disadvantaged young people.

25 other prints are being donated to people who helped with the clean ups in Manchester and to local businesses that helped by providing free food, drinks etc to the clean up people."

So, please support her and get bidding here, and you can get a little more info from Manchester Confidential here!

Fantastic news everyone! The most awesome ToDryFor, an online boutique specialising in designer tea towels has donated some of their really lovely signed designer tea towels! They are so amazing, I wish I could have them all to myself but I decided to raffle some of them off on the Rally. So, if you are lucky you can get an ace signed (and by the way this is totally exclusive) tea towel for the tiny price of £1. The rest of these marvellous designer towels will be available at our upcoming art charity event on Saturday the 25th June at The Book Club in Shoreditch, London.

Below you can see a close up of each of these kitchen gems and the artist's signature so that you can choose which towel you want to go for! Personally I'd go for all of them, though I'm so not allowed, as they are going to good homes all across the land, for a very good cause! So a quick reminder, once in a lifetime chance at an exclusive kitchen essential.Use the PayPal button at the bottom of this post to pick an artist or artists, a pound for each and the five lucky winners will be announced on Saturday 18th June.
