Paperboy

Came across this on a style blog..Paperboy are a interiors company who have created these new wallpapers for children's bedrooms. I think the ideas are really original and fun, especially 'handmade' which is a print based on the idea of hand shadow animals.

Egon Schiele

Egon Schiele is one of my heroes when it comes to fine art. The fluidity and expression within his work is so inspirational for a tactile artist like myself.

Merry Christmas

I often steal library book inserts, the places fill me with sentimentality. A few days after christmas and now I find a christmas card that appeals to me..Maybe i'll buy them for next year?
You could even re-issue the same card every year..

Hillcrest School

Had a lovely, if not hectic week running art workshops for young children at Hillcrest school.
My aims were to build up my confidence and to interact with some new people. I felt suprisingly comfortable leading the group at times, and had a really fufiling experience.
They have offered to pay to my CRB check so I can continue working at the school as a mentor, so I look forward to continuing my volunteer work within the Leeds community.

Brain Wildesmith

His work makes me want to scream with happiness. Amazing.

We by Zamyatin

"There are books of the same chemical composition as dynamite. The only difference is that a piece of dynamite explodes once, whereas a book explodes a thousand times." - Zamyatin

Just finished reading this amazing book. Every single collaboration of words, every punctuation mark has been used for a reason and has its perfect place within the novel. I am in awe.
