I caught Spikey at Covent Garden and thought his hair, which inspired this drawing, a brilliant visual pun for his bed o' nails act. To create the look he used liquid soap to make spikes, viewing himself in mirrors for a 360 degree view, then added acrylic paint! The showstopping crescendo was Spikey lying on bed of nails, with another inverted, and an audience member stepping on top. OUCH!
