two more prints...



...again taken direct from drawings left by jonah in my sketchbooks.

the gold one looks a bit gil-scott-heron-like to me, though i doubt joe knows who GSH is...

the green one is a drawing of me, i think, and has turned out very brian biggsy [which can only be a good thing]



apologies for the poor quality of the photos - i'm using photo booth and it's hard to get the lighting right :-(

jonah's drawings as new prints...

so for a long time now, jonah's been nicking my sketchbook to alleviate the boredom of car journeys and educational trips to galleries [etc.] and filling the pages with these random doodle-sketches of faces and heads. and they're really, really good.

so for a while now i've been talking with him about turning them into lino prints...

today i had a bit of space in the schedule and so finally got around to cutting and printing the first two [with at least three more to follow when i get the chance]

and here they are...





i'm on the national curriculum...

...not really.

but look here [scroll down to the section on 'why do people suffer?']

website...

i just revamped my website a bit - my first stab at using iWeb.
needs a bit of a tweak here or there, but i'm relatively happy with it, for now...
