kooga tree

So recently i was contacted an old school friend Helena Hills to create an illustration for her interesting cat-furniture company called KOOGATREE.

 it was a completely open brief with a super fast deadline which was fun, and was great working with the knowing that it would be re-printed into such an interesting product on a larger scale and i really enjoy seeing my work in different contexts. They have a great company ethos and an environmentally responsible attitude to creating a product that is local, sustainable and lovingly crafted, and all started from their own home. Browse their range , its christmas soon :D

hunger magazine

The winter issue of 'HUNGER' is finally out it was waiting all glossy and unopened for me in the newsagents yesterday.
I recce'd for a week with RANKIN and assistants in the nooks of the local coastline and met his lovely family and lovely dogs, it was most fun.

So go out and pick up a copy its a rather beautiful and sexy collection of photographs and gives me a beaming summery smile.

BEHIND SCENES

it appears no matter how smoothly i duckdive or how 'elegantly' i attempt to dismount after a wave, i seem to stash a litre of salt up behind my eyes, but i do kind of like the feeling of it escaping my brain 3 hours later , homage to the drain
