This is the last blog post until the regularly scheduled one on 1st November (time is flying past).

Currently reading
The Fountainhead - Ayn Rand
Story Of The Eye - Georgres Bataille
Great Loves- Complete set (£20 from Amazon)

It was my birthday this month and I treated myself to many, many books. Among them is the Great Loves set, from penguin. I was so happy to have it I performed star jumps.

Sluice art fair was brilliant and has sparked interesting debates regarding art fairs. Pictures from the fair are here and
there are two interesting blog posts about sluice and the world of the art fair: Art fairs Vs Artist led & Artists are a moaning bunch of bastards

Roll on Sluice 2012.

hello Dean, thank you for dropping by. Are you on GoodReads? its a great place to make lists of books, just making lists in general is pretty great.

Thank you for buying a copy of my zine, you are very kind. I love books too, and not always just the rude ones.

Contemporary artist, mainly painting.

I am interested in the fragments of stories that can be found in historical images. I make paintings and assemble them to create new stories of mystery, romance and drama. Hinting at the old and more recent. The Nostalgic and romantic.

The Delicate risqué images of Victorian postcards, the circus, erotic and romantic text: Old photographs and stories, like these, allow our imaginations to tease at the edges of the scene and the long gone strangers depicted.

I am also currently exploring romantic and erotic texts which is forming the main theme of the work on this blog
