I hand draw and paint each one. To buy one [...]

Review: All’s Well That Ends Well at Cineworld and other ramblings

At last! I have the ability to update my poor neglected website again, and have managed to add my pages on the Wish Hound project. Poor old wish hound’s been sitting about for months waiting for some attention. Having my pictures on semi-permanent display is great – I get a lot of nice people contacting [...]
Van Dyck at Tate Britain and wild web work
Posted in artwork, internet on April 8, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
The thing I love about Van Dyck is that all his people look like real people. I’m aware that sounds silly: of course they’re real people. Charles I in particular was very real. It’s hard to chop the head off someone insubstantial.
Doll-like genius.

I don’t have a lot to say in this post, except that Sara Lanzillota is a genius.
El Musical and el wandering without leave in London

Peter Pan El Musical is not what a lot of people, I imagine especially British people, would expect. It’s almost [...]

Let me qualify that title.
I like fashion from the 1600-1900s. No, scratch that. I love it. If it has lace, embroidery, seed pearls, silk, taffetta, more lace, gold braid, brodere anglaise or velvet on it, I like it. And if it’s all of those things together and on a man with long King Charles-type hair, [...]
The only thing in the world worth having

“Every inch of me shall perish. Every inch, but one. An inch. It is small and fragile and it is the only thing in the world worth having. We must never lose it or give it away. We must never let them take it from us. I hope that whoever you are, you escape this [...]
How I learned to stop worrying and love edible chemical compounds
Posted in artwork, general ranting, writing on March 14, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
I confuse myself sometimes.
I recently made the discovery that organic food, despite my every wish not to believe the hype, actually does taste better than ordinary food. I am a born-again organic foodie. I sneer upon cheap value bread that probably has more chemicals in it than flour: cheap chickens pumped full of added water [...]
