Flamingo Disco!

Having fun designing this morning making colourful computer collages with graphic shapes and tropical themes.

Manchester Visual Diary

Thank you Manchester for a most excellent long weekend. Highlights included; Trafford Centre (for it's sheer scale and vastness), the curry mile (for it's bright neon lights and tasty food), my first sheesha experience (mmmm...strawberry and watermelon smokiness), the town centre (including a magnificent waterstones), watching the Black Swan (which literally gave me chills) and MOSI, Museum of Science and Industry- watched a demonstration of all the cotton-yarn making-weaving processes (a must for textile geeks!).

New tee designs!

A couple of the tee designs I've been working on recently...

Aware: Art Fashion Identity

New exhibition at the Royal Academy (but at their Burlington Gardens address-which is the upstairs of the Haunch of Venison!) explores the relationship between what we wear, our visual culture and who we are- the continually relevant question each culture and society asks to one level or another about clothing as identity and artistic expression. There is work from over 30 contemporary practitioners, most is refreshing- either in a familiar way, like an old friend who's had a slight but pleasing image change, or less familiar which is new and exciting.
