Newcastle reportage


The guy who owned the Hostel had the sickest beard I have ever seen!
As he walked over to the tv to turn it off I thought he was actually going to put The Simpsons on as it was 6PM :(

Here's a link...

Craig Thompson


I saw this book in Traveling Man a few weeks ago and thought it would be an interesting read. It's a diary of Craig Thompson's experiences from when he went traveling around the world, for research on his next big Graphic Novel. The illustrations are amazing!!! They are so life like but yet they still have their cartoonish features. I would really like to try something like this for my book. I was thinking of volunteering at an animal shelter and documenting my time with illustrations.

Sketch I did today for my bands limited Halloween Tee!

Haven't listened to this in a while...

Today was spent in the printing room at Vernon Street today. I had such a good day. I have tried screen printing before but I
didn't really print much, so I was hoping to print something today.

This is my best print of the day :-



Thought I would do a cat as I was thinking about stuff to put in my sketchbook for our zine project. There was also a lot more detail on the original sketch :-



Thinking of printing my own tees sometime soon. Would be making them for my band, or do some rad design and try and make some money.
