Neighbourly gods

Out of my window I spied this spectre rising from the chimney of my neighbour.

I am fond of analogue special effects.

My family made me this BEAUTIFUL blanket for my 21st birthday. My mum, who masterminded the operation, learnt to crochet for it - as did my brother, my dad, and my grandad. My grandma and aunt, dab hands with a crochet hook, taught them. I can hardly believe it, but they have all been secretly crocheting squares since Christmas. Such an amazing thing, THANK YOU and much love to you all.

Polish Fashion Week

I did this illustration for the Amelia's Magazine website. This image of Domi Grzybek's collection is for one of Amelia's frank and interesting reviews of Polish Fashion Week: well worth a read. Amelia Gregory champions fashion illustration and ethical fashion, both promoted in her new book Amelia's Compendium of Fashion Illustration. What a good combination.

Queen of the Fishes

As part of an ongoing project, Joseph Egan sent Phoebe and I this perspex queen to visually respond to. We had a really fun day making this 'Queen of the Fishes' tableau in the back garden. Then we photographed it in the middle of the night using a camera remote hidden under our regal cloak. We love DIY costume fun!

Home

Hometown. A hand drawn map of memories, observations, and shakily remembered geography. This is my piece for 'Home', an exhibition of Kingston illustration students at Little Hall in Lavenham, Suffolk. Organised by Dani , it is on from today until Friday 28th April and is full of lovely things. Thanks and well done to Dani for putting the show together!

I didn't know I had such a fixation with death until I mapped every death I knew into my hometown. It's odd what sticks.

Rachel Hingley

Back in winter I was lamb to the slaughter for Rachel Hingley, my very talented photographer friend. That's me hanging from a tree in the first photo. Rachel takes amazing pictures of quite ordinary people in ordinary settings, but somehow they transform into strange, beautiful and surreal stories. Have a look at her cargo here, it will not disappoint!

We sell vintage port

One of these men is the boss and it wasn't hard to see which one.
