Illustrator. Bexhill. Sharing music, books and anything else I find inspiring, alongside my photos and art that have nowhere else to live. Trubba Not.

An illustration of a horned monster driving a motor car through the countryside.
One of the illustrations currently on display as part of the Curious Agenda arts festival.
The theme is 'Play'. I show 'new folk' creatures taking a break from their mythical terrorising.
Until 1 June, top floor of St Andrew's Mews, Hastings.

#nowplaying Magnetic Eyes by Jeff Phelps.
Early, soulful electronic music. Not sure what year it's from, sounds early 80s. Beautiful sounds.
#nowlistening to Doris Duke.

If you listened to this at the time you posted...then we were listening at the same time.

A plastic skeleton attempts to catch a miniature pickle factory, alongside a boy and a shattering statue, who are all flying through the air.
Just finished another read of Michael Rosen's You're Thinking About Donuts. One of my favourite childhood books, I love laughing along now with my daughter.
Oddly, I'd not realised the illustrations were by Chris Riddle. This image captures the madness!

Just back from #Bexhill beach. The sea is a beautiful crystalline green today, especially as the waves roll, as I tried to capture here.

#nowplaying Deface The Music by Utopia.
Possibly the most Beatles sounding record, after the Rutles.
Life Goes On is a treat, though. A lost McCartney track.
