THESE ARE THE MOUNTAINS THAT TRIED TO KILL ME.

Going home on the last ferry tonight. Don't really want to. ;_;

I DON'T KNOW HOW SOMEONE MANAGED TO TAKE A PHOTO FROM THE INSIDE OF MY HEAD. AND YET THEY DID.

Zowie! Is that some sort of Bridget Riley installation?

It's PS1, so who knows.

I think that's my new inspiration for interior decor

Not included: the man with the ginger strawberry blond ponytail.

Well I don't often find them at the thrift store, I'll say that.

They're apparently two for a penny in the thrift stores of Cornwall.

Can I show you my favorite wacky psychedelic piece of bs I found at a thrift store? It's this embroidered flower tiger, hidden under plexiglass

Wow, that tiger, too, he is trapped in my dreams.

I like that pic var 2: liked it when it was b+w, now the colours suit it yeah!

and now my phone has stopped crashing...

not the last one, obv, the cliffside one, you know

I'm confused.

But here, have a sea arch. Orkney has a sea arch pretty much every 500 yards or so.

I like your new no outlines stuff.

It's 100% digital is why no outlines. I kinda miss the thick outlines, I need to scan some of the outliney sketches I did while sitting on sea walls and stuff.

I saw this and thought of you:

That is a really beautiful blog, actually.

random question for people here who go to art galleries/museums and know a ton about them:

what is the formal name for the info cards that accompany photos/paintings/sculptures/whatever?

i need to find an standard or example of one for a project i'm doing, if anyone could hook up a photo i'd be very grateful.

I think they're called placards. I called up a museum once hoping they'd tell me how to make them properly but they said they just did whatever on foamcore. This was one of the MOMAs.

So I did a book cover! For an exciting Science book about the physics of foam.

(it's funny that this is being published before mine own book, but there it is.)

We're contemplating doing an A4 poster of the cover artwork (with the text more the way I normally do text) if I can work out how to sell it online. Would anyone at all be interested in buying such a thing if we did one? (Or, better yet, does anyone have any experience good or bad with the myriad ways there are of selling posters / artwork online?)

ahhh that is great! I would buy a poster.

lovely... congrats, branwell! I too would buy a poster. (I secretly want posters of a lot of your artwork tbh.)

nice work.

Thank you! Thank you! I'm v v pleased with how it turned out. :)

I will see what I can do in terms of getting a poster done, and update this thread with details when we have them.
