Weekend

There was a book launch for Aickman's Heirs  edited by Simon Strantzas on the weekend that I dropped in on. Robert Aickman is favorite of mine so it will be interesting to read a collection inspired by his works. I illustrated the cover of Simon's last chap book and he's a fine writer and a good bloke too.  I did get caught in a massive rain storm bikini which in its way was quite nice since it was warm but luckily the worst of it was the last twenty minutes from home.

Also various doodles and scribbles and a old magazine purchase I bought for the cover copy and sadly had no photo or illustration... but riveting nonetheless.

Gym People

very quick sketches.  I never thought I'd enjoy the gym, and I don't really, its pretty boring but the one I go to is underground and close and I don't mind it too much. I do enjoy a game of squash tho.


Nucleus

The Goonies art show at Gallery Nucleus opened last night.. some pre opening pics from curator and wonderful artist Seb Mesnard.

Falls

Some pics from Niagara Falls earlier in the year with a Frankenstein thing.





Arlen

I'd been wanting to read Michael Arlen's ghost/thriller collection but it was cheaper to buy the two volumes that the stories appear in and his Gothic/satire novel, all good so far.  I like this mix of good spooky stuff and witty dandy/comedy of manners stuff  The titles sound like Morrissey songs.

Alice


I had sketched this page while rereading this the other day and ended up working on it further tho I have no intention of doing any other Alice pages.
