So, off I went to Devon to hang out at Fagin's Antiques (which is by the way, the most amazing place ever!) to shine some lights and take some snaps of this gorgeous young lad, who is very nice. As it happens, so is his mum, and so is his dad.

It was fun.

"Kim we want to come over and get dressed up

I treid to fight it, but it turns out I had no choice in the matter.
A few crates of beer, a bottle of wine, some cider and a dab or 2 of something or other later......

Now, I know what you English lot are like with nakedness, so I considered not posting this pic. But I reckon it's pretty damn fine so you nipple haters are just going to have to get over it.

It was an entertaining experience frolicking naked in the woods, especially as there was a main road just on the other side of that tree you can see.

The Dargavillians like to burn rubber, so much so that they have a whole day dedicated to it. They call it the Burn Out Comp, and its full of bogans!

One of these bogans is my neighbour Steve, and he's built a mean Ute especially for tyre popping. 

He was nice enough to let me
put some paint on it......

Faye has wangled her way into a life that involves painting pretty stuff on walls for money. She's actually very good at it. So good in fact, that our friends at the Blue Note Cafe asked her to re-vamp their vibe. 

There was a lot of work to this nacho bonanza and I was sub-hired in to help colour in triangles on a paint by numbers basis....

"oh look theres a waterfall, how pretty. I have a spare outfit. Shall I get in it? Weve got a spare half hour. Alright cool. Fuck its cold. Oh hello dog. Oh, hi family on a walk. Yes this is totally normal. Can I get out now, I've got to go to work."
  

Some of our best work yet!

2010-07-16T00:24:00.000-07:00

Tasha has been asking me to paint something for her for as long as i can remember. I said "come check out my ideas" she said "No, I trust you, just go paint". So thats exactly what me and Sophie did. 

Sadly, rain stopped play and this is as far as we got.....

but then we came back a few days later 

and did this......

The Flying Bug

2010-07-11T00:31:00.000-07:00

There's this lovely young lady called Flo who said

Charlotte Bibby (photographer extraodinaire) asked if we'd like to help out with her breast cancer awareness photoshoot by striping down to our undies and posing around in a posh hotel. 

Thats not really something we could turn down now, it is?!

So myself and Maire popped over to Charlton House to prance about and be fabulous.... 

Please donate some money to the cause:

Stella

My friend Joey has a really cool dog called Stella. 

Joey went on holiday.... and Stella stayed with me!

she went home today, and I will miss her.

A day at The Mangle

2010-03-23T22:21:00.000-07:00

I have a friend called Stu, who is maybe one of the coolest and most inspiring people I know. He prints stuff on t-shirts, mugs, bags, boards, door mats.... you name it! In fact you may call him a professional in the realm of screen printing. 

I recently asked him if he would help me out printing one of my illustrations (below).
He was all for it. Yippee!! So off I went on a trip to the big smoke to hang out with him and his beautiful assistant Lilly at my new favourite location in east London, 

'The Mangle' aka 'Lovenskate headquarters'.

Not only did I thoroughly enjoy myself, but I went home with a bunch of fucking cool T-shirts!!

Stella joined in the fun too.

Thank you Stu for being so great!

Earthly Delights

2010-03-15T15:48:00.000-07:00

Boris and Jack Thompson-Roylance are two of the most promising little film makers I've ever had the pleasure to meet. Not only that, but they are jolly nice too. 

Here's a little short film they recently asked me to be in.... 

Respect Your Elders!

2010-03-14T16:53:00.000-07:00

People often ask me to do wierd shit, this is a perfect example.....

Portraits for a website. Jude and Bridgit. 

These girls spank people for a living! 

Black Birds

2010-02-22T15:54:00.000-08:00

Whilst I was in Portugal it rained a lot and so I sat at my friend Nuno's living room table and drew pictures out of his National Geographic Magazines. This has evolved into a slight obsession with Birds and Black Pens.
Here's a Hawk, an Eagle and a Condor:

Untitled Madness.

2010-02-07T15:08:00.000-08:00

I will let the photos speak for themselves....

Thanks to Paul once again for letting us reak havoc in your house, turn your kitchen into a mental asylum and your living room into an oversized dressing up box! 

Jahouli and her many faces....

2010-02-06T11:03:00.000-08:00

That mad little bundle of fun I mentioned that goes by the name of Jahouli, invited me and joey along to participate in a little school project she was doing... and it really turned out quite fantastic!!

Dark Matters

2010-01-23T10:18:00.000-08:00

There's this mad little girl I know called Jahouli and I like her very much. I think were going to do many strange and wonderful things together. Here's the beginning......

Shot by my two favourate photographers; Bibby and the Rhino.

Nori´s house

2010-01-06T07:27:00.000-08:00

A holiday within a holiday, with two of my favourate people.

My artisticly inclined, sort of sister, Faye. And my local, esoteric, portuguese buddy, Lito. Lito has a slightly mad father called Nori! We stayed in Nori's house for a couple of weeks on a little Island on the south coast of Portugal called Armona... He built it himself. His house looked slightly different after our stay.... Inside and out!!

Some leaves, a bird, and the arch by me.

And a fishy picture by Faye.
