Anyway im going to go and make the most of the sun, pleased to meet you!!

i went to strawberry fair last year, what a great day... apart from the fact i had to nurture two people for most of it, one had done too much NO2 out of balloons and had a migraine and the other had drunk half a bottle of absinthe and went a funny shade of yellow... i'll definately have more of a wander this year and seek out the poi wizards

That's kind of how i explain my art too. Basically it's just copying stuff and making sure you colour between the lines
Those badgers were designs for a girl that wanted a badger tattoo. She paid me in beer... Which was nice of her but i really would've preferred cash...

The stuff i do is very poster-arty, and usually twisted... recently i did an illustration for 'Mary had a little lamb' except mary is a bunny skater and she wore a dead lamb as a rucksack with zips sewn into its head. Gently mental.
I wouldnt mind being paid in beer, as long as its belgian and at least 6 percent num num
