' 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.

S/S/S Exhibition: Whatever Is Here Is Not There
So our little 'collective' S/S/S has its first exhibition at Pretty Scruffy in Chichester. It is an amalgamation of some of the initial works we have created together. The closing party is tomorrow if you fancy it.

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

"If It Doesn't Feel Like This, Then You're Not Doing It Right"
So on a rare Sunday where I wasn't hungover I was actually a bit creative again. It felt good to be getting back in the swing of things. I think my favourite one is the male/female triangle kiss collage. "If It Doesn't Feel Like This, Then You're Not Doing It Right".

"Be Cruel To Me, Because I'm A Fool For You"
So sometimes I write things. Sometimes I make things. I typed up some of my writig into a small envelope book I made. The title is an Alex Turner Lyric. The rest is mine. Slightly cliche, but you should cut and stick until your heart is fixed.

Notes, Thoughts and Scribbles
I've just finished a notebook I've had for awhile. Here are some of the pages. Scribbles, thoughts and attempts at poetry. Heroes exhibition images to follow soon, I have been rather unwell and a bit rubbish on updates.

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.

Poetry, Collage and a Heart Shaped leaf
Just a couple of pieces I made today whilst I have been signed off work. Made from some scribbles in my sketchbooks and leftovers upon my desk. Oh and the cool leaf I found by my shoe....
