Dolydd (front)
date : 2009size : 6½” x 3¼”
medium : screen print
notes : The Llanfyllin Union Workhouse, which opened in 1837, is known locally as “the Dolydd” (pron. “Dolith”), which Brian thought was similar in sound to “dollar”; when asked to produce these, he immediately came up with his design for the ‘Dolydd bill’. Featuring the most infamous former resident of the Workhouse, they were used in lieu of £ Sterling at a Green Fayre weekend during summer 2009. The printing of, and ‘trading’ in Dolydds was filmed for the BBC, for a new series to be screened in late 2009.
comment : “Within hours of their issue, kids were selling them onsite to adults for £3 each, so they obviously had some ‘value’ attached to them by others, which I find interesting. ‘The Dartmoor Shepherd’ was the title of the biography of David Davies of Llanfyllin, a man who was sentenced to over 60 years in prison sentences for stealing from church poor boxes. He actually spent over 50 years in prison; as he was from rural Wales, they gave him the job of looking after the sheep while he was in Dartmoor. He received a 13-year sentence for stealing 2 shillings (10p), which led David Lloyd-George and Winston Churchill to plead with the governor for his early release. Part of the condition of release was that he work on a farm near Rhiwabon for 6 months; he absconded after a couple of weeks, broke into Moreton Hall's cellar, and pinched 4 bottles of whiskey, valued at £2. He asked the judge to send him to Llanfyllin workhouse, as he didn't want to die in gaol. On his death in 1929, the local populace paid for a headstone, so that he wasn't buried in a paupers grave. A twist of historical irony places him on their new ‘currency’; I hope it raises a smile.”

notes : During the summer of 2009, Brian was asked to design and print a new ‘currency’ for Gweithdy Llanfyllin Workhouse, to be used at their inaugural Green Fayre. Within the border of foliage is a line-drawing of one of the few extant Victorian workhouses in Wales.
comment : “I had a week to come up with the designs for front and back, and another to make the screens and print them in time for the Green Fayre. It's in a very rural place, and I wanted this to be highlighted through the design. Time was tight; luckily, I was helped with the printing by Sogol Biglari, who is studying for her degree in art at Leeds University.”

medium : collage
notes : The artist was invited to by Rough Trade/ Street Art Awards 08, to produce an image adapting the sleeve of a well-known 7” or 12” vinyl record.

date : 2008size : 11½” x 8½”
medium : collage
notes : One of four designs for Welsh Art Now magazine's first issue, featuring everybody's favourite Welsh queen, Dafydd Thomas. Brian was asked for his artistic response to the introduction of local currency in Llandovery, Llandeilo and Lampeter.
comment : “I think that Dafydd Thomas makes a good ‘Brehines Cymru’! The four designs that I settled on are all black & white collages - flat analogue artwork (as opposed to digital) is always my preferred method of working.”

date : 2008size : 11½” x 8½”
medium : collage
notes : The ultimate in promisory notes… “I promise to pay the bearer in the next life” - another of Brian's images for Welsh Art Now magazine.
comment : “The ancient Britons/Brythons, so I believe, would lend money and accept payment in the next life, which I used as a starting point.
The horseshoe: in 1799 David Jones of Llandovery set-up the Black Sheep Bank, which ran as an independent bank until 1909 (when it was bought by Lloyds). Jones was a drover by profession, and drovers were held in high regard when it came to entrusting them with amounts of money and promisory notes.
An old traveller friend of mine tells me that a sign of the drovers was the horseshoe with a dot to the right, so it's tipping the hat to the drovers as well as wishing the bearer luck.... one day!.”

5 Punt
date : 2008size : 11½” x 8½”
medium : collage
notes : This design was based on the Welsh 5 bob/ shilling notes issued from Llandudno in the late 1960s/ early 1970s - the border was originally used on a Malaysian note issued by the occupying Japanese forces in 1941. Mr Williams (who issued the Welsh notes) adapted it, and Brian adapted his!
comment : “Before I put any sketch ideas down on paper, I did some research into the history of Welsh banking, and money. Between 1968 and 1971, a Mr. Williams issued Welsh currency from Llandudno and caused a bit of a stir.”
