VALYS #2

both valys and kismet smashed manchester!!! had such a lovely day, chilling in the sun with several ice cold pints. valys had another gig on the monday after (yesterday) at a local venue in cleethorpes. their performance was undoubtedly on par with sunday's however the atmosphere in the venue didnt have a scratch on that of the previous day. currently awaiting on the development of my film from sunday :)

the advantage of rhyanne's polaroid, instant development!

currently munching my way through a huuuuge black jack stick of rock my mum got me from their weekend away camping in whitby, im now not as jelous as i have a yummy treat.

TABBY CAT


This is to demonstrate how i am doing sweet F all today whilst my family prepare for their first ever camping expedition without me :( i really wish i was going to exploit my sketchbook to a weekends worth of abuse. my evenings events are likely to consist of my body absorbing one too many larger 'n' limes/raspberry sambucas.

WOD UP DOC?


i finally purchased some classic 8 eye DM's today, my boss let me bid for them at work on his lappy which i thought was a rather kind gesture. i wonder if by wearing them people will think im one of the hot bbz from this is england?

i did a little painting today; i predominately work in oil but im trying to broaden my spectrum of media, so today (as a follow on from the previous few days) ive been working in water colour. i really enjoy the speed an effective piece can be created and the resulting vibrancy of colours. id really like to achieve a better technique when using water colour so i think im gonna pursue the experimentation of the medium- i cant wait!

OH MANDY


Last night i stayed up far too late with the lights on: a family of moths entered my room and the big daddy moth wouldn't leave me be. I vacated so they could camp for the night by themselves.

Today im meeting up with my friend George for a long awaited catch up.
