I’ve just realised I won’t be posting anything tomorrow (as rashly promised in an earlier post), as my older brother, his wife and baby are in town for the weekend and I’m planning to spend Friday with them. So, as my weekend post, here’s Bamboo from the first Drawing Room show. It’s a Plascon paint …

I’m plumbing the depths of my archives once again, as I work like the clappers for a massive Fair Lady horoscope special in January, get teatowels and trays made for showing at Carine Terreblanche’s jewellery show on 23 November, prepare for the next Neighbour Goods Market and do my morning job writing comics. I’m not …

It’s so teeny weeny, but here’s a pic of the work I put on the first Drawing Room show in May 2005. I was using cut paper, cut vinyl and paint samples for these works. I’ll hunt about for more close up pics of these to post tomorrow. This first show was terribly exciting for …

I’m undecided what to do with this, but I do like these loopy beasts. All are hand-cut from black vinyl, then arranged in Photoshop.

I’m starting to get things together for our stall at the next Neighbour Goods market on 28 October. This time, more toddler-size Tshirts. I think I’ll do pretty spring things, like this birdy. Isn’t it sweet?

I’m planning to do more of this in my blog – recording the process from scamp to the final illi. L-R:1. Scamp, drawn in ink, then scanned and coloured in Photoshop. The client thought the snakes were too scary, so we agreed on flowers2. Black vinyl cut out with my NT cutter3. Same, but split …
