I had an amazing day

Spent ages listening to records in a shop with the nice guy in the record shop. Got some amazing jazz funk disco fusion vinyl. I decided that I'm going to start djing and create my own genre. It'll be pretty intense stuff. Then I had a great lunch and drifted around Brighton, got some paint and a beautiful Decca record box. It was an amazing day. Then I went through all the crappy canvas that I got a few weeks ago, so now I've sorted out the crap ones. Pictured below. But I've got some :D brilliant day.

remember the sky is awesome

sigh


me paddling and sitting on a rock.

i love water. i particularly love it in the sunset light. when i get to the middle of the river away from the midgies and can have a sit down. Devon is beautiful, magical and unbelievable.




Spring, new cubes

These tenderonis are now out of my hands. The fire shall decide their fate now! Nargh.

Soft faces eating fruit (2010)

This painting is a metre wide.

oh. now it's "my cupboard". yeah that doesn't make me feeling like a loser.

anyway. i finished a huge painting. and finished the dust piggies book. you can still rock in america.


Wriggling out the fibres (2010)

1st Dust Piggies book and other stuff.

I've been painting loads and putting together the first dust piggies book. this is the front cover. I think it will look very nice. i'm too tired to upload the images of the paintings tonight. because i'm going to try to get an early night. also daily dust piggies update is on as usual.

you eat me, i eat you (2010)

one point when i was at shitty school we went on a camping trip thing and i stayed up all night eating a certain planet titled chocolate bar (other chocolate bars are available) and subsequently when i fell asleep i dream of these monster chasing me around singing a weird deep song about how it was their right to eat me because they were inside me me. I guess the things we put into our bodies in fact consume us.

reasons to be incredibly grateful

living in devon is amazing. it is an effortless beautiful place. i've been painting a bit. working on some huge canvasses. it's really different, i'm trying to paint on a bigger scale. which is a bit odd, but it's nice to try. i put my shorts on. which is a bit like if you see a groundhog, it delays the summer by a few weeks.

new dust piggies every day

Oh son, updating dust piggies every single day with one comic. i want to upload more, but in the spirit of democracy it will be only one, but every single day. so i guess the summary of this presentation would be that...

anyway, aside from that, i've been working on pots. it's going well. i'm also working on a porridge suit. it's like a jacket but made out of porridge so that if you go to scotland and need to buy a postcard you can use it as currency. like having travellers cheques sewn into your shorts.

today i saw a whale.

it was in the queue at the fish market. i was like 'sup' and he was like 'oh man this is bullcrap waiting in line, i'd be better off going next door to that penguin massage parlour and just eating a bunch of those dudes. and i was like what is a penguin massage and the whale grew an eyebrow and then raised it at me suggestively.
