'Home Away From Home'
Someone that I've known for a pretty long time is moving house. I thought I'd make something to adorn a wall.

' I Don't Like The Cut Of Your Jib'
So these are a small selection of poems/writings I have transferred into images. They were loosely connected around the time of writing so form a small collection, along with the previous blog post.

Back-Of-The-Packet Calculations 3
Continuing my packet calculations. Here are a few more. They may possibly make it into a zine type publication sometime in the not too distant future.

Back-of-the-packet calculations 2
Some further works on packets. Quite enjoying these at the minute. A way of using up writing that sometimes doesn't find a place in poems.

Back-Of-The-Packet Calculations
I don't think fag packet warnings are serious enough. Here are some alternatives. If you're gonna warn people for the benefit of their health then at least cover all angles.

Build Up
"Build Up". Some more writing I put to an image, I couldn't help but use the image of someone falling. It's pretty fitting.

When The World Was Steady
Reworked this poem I had knocking about for awhile. Found this kid and thought it suited the tone. Enjoy

HEROES: Jim Morrison
One of my works from the HEROES exhibition earlier in the year. Collage and Biro.
all of my heroes are people I admire for being uncompromising in their attitudes to their lives as well as their art. Although many of their characteristics can polarize peoples opinions. Jim Morrison

Time Is Golden
So i got commissioned to create a work as a surprise present to celebrate some oldskool family friends Sylv and Johnny's 50th wedding Anniversary. Hope they like when it arrives in Malta and enjoy many more years together! They have a strong history associated with both Malta and Pompey. I was originally thinking about referencing both places with images/items representing both places within the image. However I decided that focusing around the time, love and colour pallette of gold gave a far more meaningful image. It is after all about celebrating their time together. Absolute legends x

Stuck for ideas?
I was a bit stuck for gift ideas this year, until I found these discarded shopping list from some unwitting pompey residents at ASDA. Hopefully I will find some more over the festive season. Happy Holidays
"How to treat a Lady"
For the female in your life. Who wouldnt be happy with some PJs, an Itunes voucher, perfume and a set from boots, all topped off with an evening in your new sexy underwear and button mushrooms......
"How to treat a Lad"
For the man in your life. For more fun than you can shake a festive stick at this year, get your man four types of publication including "take a breack", the stimulant drink known as "coffeee" finished off with a smoke of tocco and a chicken and bacon salad.
