"Just Like My Quiltcovers"

This writing is quite old but nonetheless here you go. It was an incredibly bad hangover.

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

Heartbroken Beatnik

Self Explanatory. I need to stop smoking on another note.

Drun k

I saw that girl again.

I Was Only Being Me

Made an image from some words I wrote awhile back. The title is from a conversation I overheard my friend having and the starting point of the poem.

S/S/S I Have a studio S/S/S

So as 2012 draws to a close, I have been a bit slack on the creative front, from measures out of my control. However I have very exciting news that I now have studio space for 2013. Stay tuned. It's going to be big. Here's a sneak peek. S/S/S

The Trouble With Lemon Curd...

Everytime I eat lemon curd, it's after I've burnt the toast. Just wondered whether lemon is the only way to cover up burnt toast or I genuinely enjoy it. I've done it for as long as I can remember. Anyways this used a lot of pens, coffee and a bit of my order pad at work.

Coffee Break

Today like most days I had a coffee break. It involved biro, coffee and a cigarette. "Today I drank so much coffee my heart began to race, it was a minor distraction from lingering heartbreak and job dissatisfaction."

An Open Letter To Jamie T

An Open Letter To Jamie T, Look I'll try and keep it brief but basically we miss you. I mean it's been awhile and at the minute something's seriously lacking. Xfactor is back on TV attempting to force feed the nation and currently number one in the charts is a man with the inability to operate a hat correctly. I think the final straw came when I was watching the news, the actual news, and a genuine report stated that chris moyles is recording a song with rizzle kicks. Fair play to people who enjoy that. But I don't. You're like the older cousin who we always have an awesome night out with, but we never see enough of. Everytime you've partied down in Pompey we've had a ball, right? I'm sure The Wedgewood-rooms would be more than happy to have you back? Failing that there's plenty of front rooms available. All I'm saying is this Jamie, just let us know you're alright. I don't even mind getting the first few rounds in. It's just we need you now more than ever. Come on, it's Friday night. Ashley x

"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.

HEROES: Alex Turner

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. Alex Turner however is just a fucking beautiful lyricist.
