By late 2026 I will publish my new "Acid Renaissance" book of art, but in the meantime my first two art books are available from my online shop via the link below (and also from Bookbuster and Printed Matters bookshops, if you happen to be in Hastings):

Goodnight from the Gelgrove Stitching Society, its members steadily embroidering new Woodwose legends into the village’s banner. Goodnight from Paul Watson’s darkroom, where things not seen in his viewfinder are manifesting in the developing bath. Goodnight from Hookland.
