Fuck yeah!

My friend just got acquitted of conspiring to fight Nazis.

So I made a cake:



That is all.

Stop motion

I've been in America for two months - I got back last week and had one particularly jetlaggy night where I couldn't get off to sleep til 5am. I was awake enough in the mean time to finally get around to arranging an unfinished stop motion film to put online.



I made it in my flat with my cheap digital camera in Spring 2010. I took low-res photographs for each frame, then put them together using Windows Movie Maker. After years of thinking about making stop-motion films it was a revelation to realise that I already had the stuff I needed.

When I first started dreaming about stop-motion (age 11), you had to have a camcorder with a 'still' button. To be able to throw one together so easily is really exciting. I learned alot putting this one together and have lots of ideas. I just need more free time, it's so slow!

One for the coffee hardcore.

Printed 30 of these today to sell at the Alternative Press Fair and on Etsy.

Etsy!

I've finally made it onto Etsy, thanks to a recruitment freeze in the ambulance service ^_^

I'll be adding new things slowly, with plenty of opportunities for custom designs and requests - come and have a rummage.

Shape & Situate #2 contribution

Click for decent quality image...

This is my contribution to 'Shape and Situate #2', a zine of inspirational European women out soon. I made it for photocopying not scanning - the pen marks won't show up on the finished thing. You can read more about the legendary Jayaben Desai here. If you want a copy of the zine, comment here or search for it online innit.

Finished my contribution to Ink For Aid last night - an auction of art and illustration to raise money for Japan. They're still after artwork to auction - search for them on Facebook or email inkforaid@gmail.com if you're interested. I'll post auction dates when they're announced.
