Something Wicked This Way Comes.
This is another one of my gothic horror inspired pieces. I did this particular one after a viewing of Stephen King’s The Mist and a trip to the Booth Museum of Natural History in Brighton.

To be effective, an assassin must be invisible as well as deadly, hiding behind the most innocent disguise. A bowl of beef ramen metamorphoses into a fearsome ninja; an apparently harmless can of tea becomes a sword-wielding samurai of death.

Definitely a massive me-treat!! Woke this morning to find a new Gary Numan track has been released. It’s a rare outtake from the Telekon album. Thought I was going to have to wait for the forthcoming reissue to hear it. Love stuff like this. Great track too.

Watched ‘She Killed in Ecstasy’ by Jess Franco last night and have become more than a little obsessed by the house in the opening scene. Love the fact it still exists today too and remains untouched.

Well I know what it is (for me anyway), it's "strong lines on creamy background". See also Giacometti's paintings, which caused my head to explode when I first came across some in an encyclopedia of art as a teen back in caveman times

Suddenly reminded this morning of that time 10 years ago when I spent a whole year dicking around in the creative mode in Minecraft!! The ‘’Welchcraft’ block even had its own front door, candles, a toilet & permanent portal to the Nether!! And people say I don’t know how to party.

Iain Banks: the final interview
Iain Banks died last Sunday, just before the publication of his final novel The Quarry. Last month he talked to Stuart Kelly about writing, politics and all the things still left to do . . .

RIP Robert Redford.
Did this illustration back in 2010 for a local cinema event.
Robert left us with so many great movies. For me it’s Three Days of the Condor, All The Presidents Men, Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid plus I also have real soft spot for Sneakers (which no one seems to remember!!)

Still marvelling over this recent find in a local bookshop. A huge collection of old sci-fi paperbacks all with stickers from 2 of my favourite London comic shops of the past. So great to see stickers for Forbidden Planet (Denmark Street) & Dark They Were and Golden Eyed out in the wild once more.

This is a rather nice find. Searching through one of my Whole Earth Catalogues is an original advert for the 1st edition paperback version of Frank Herbert’s book, Dune. I wonder if I send off the $1.25 they’ll still honour the order? Worth a bit more than that these days methinks. 😂

Love this! I’ve always loved old comics especially all the crazy adverts. This beauty is for Genuine Soil From Dracula’s Castle from an old Warren comic. However, thanks to the net, I can now look up what things like this actually looked like. Think the certificate is worth price of admission alone.

Took these in 2022 for reference purposes but like the way they came out. Just used a simple flip filter to create the symmetrical effect.
