The man i shall marry - KING CHARLES



so i came across this beauty of a man  4 years back, at the time he was unsigned and the worlds best kept secret! since then he got signed and has his second single out tilted LOVE LUST 


(if you click on the link you can also enjoy pure genius)

he's also playing around london a the moment so try and catch him live, it's magical! 


(i must state that these images were not taken by me and have been lifted from Google)

BOB the chair


So..this is Bob, he is  a high back victorian armchair upholstered with one of the prints from a series of my recent works titled 'doobie dreams' (make of it what you will). 

i thought i'd introduce him to you guys as he doesn't get out much :)

Sketchbook magazine


I went up to london on Friday to meet with the Sketchbook team, and discuss lovely new exciting things in the shape of the first Sketchbook magazine pop-up shop (click on the link please)

It's going to be A-mazing i tell you...we went to have a look at the shop space which is off Carnaby Street...and marvel at the blank canvas in all it's newly painted white-ness, it's such an awesome space, split across two floors.

I'm making some bits and bobs to make the place look nice and curating the window (so excited) there will be cakes and tea and many exciting  things going on, on each day of the 3 week pop-up shop.

YOU JUSt CAN'T MISS IT...(because that's just stupidity)

ooh and the 2nd issue of Sketchbook magazine is out now which i did some illustrations for...have a peek and give us some feed back xx

Salutations


i've been manic busy over this last week on a few exciting things...and i've caught death ( the flu) it's really not being kind to me..i sneeze around 3 sneezes per minute...and there is no way of holding them back. I should take this opportunity to apologies to the person in costa this morning, who had to wait (a good 5 minutes whilst getting sneezed on 15 or so times) to take my order..i'm sorry it's the little people dancing up my nose :( 

above is a little update in visual form...of recent happenings over here :)
