I'm going to shout about this one.
I'm artist in residence at the University of Chester for the next academic year.
Kiss my face.
A vintage painting of Jesus with new screenprints on the left and right hand side. One side is a collage of devil's and nasty little creatures, the other side is angelic creatures including some dancing cats.
Finished my collage screenprint on vintage bible studies poster.

Great opener, banger trick selection, comfy pants, and introduced me to a band I hadnt heard before (Table). 5/5 would watch again.

And in this case the hardest level is literally the tutorial. You can't even play the main game without passing it.
Did you try Reflection's Stuntman? Super-hard, more like a reaction test and rhythm game than a driving game. Truely unique.
I interviewed one of the creators, Martin Edmondson, in 2011, and he told me he could complete the infamously hard underground parking garage level using just his feet (shoes and socks off, naturally).

Long-term I'd like to go back to the flea market and buy up all those posters to do an entire series of these one-off prints. I have five in progress, here's a peak at another...

Half way through this print but really pleased with the left hand sise. Printing on old bible story posters I bought from a flea market for ยฃ2 each. #recycledart #screenprint #ukprintmakers

A neon yellow, pink and black screen print of Tony Montana from the movie Scarface, played by Al Pacino. Illustration, design and print by Matt Martin aka Freshmattic aka Matthew Diamonds.
You Need People Like Me: screen print, spray paint, corrugated cardboard.
Spent the day at college messing about with textures and old designs I've never used before. Fun!
(I don't even like Scarface that much. Carlito's Way is the best Pacino gangster movie).
A load of black and white drawings including a chimp with a shotgun, a gorilla, a cig packet, the arterial system, an eagle, bottles of beer, etc
Anyway I'm out here creating art with hands and eyes and heart and trial and error
