New Site

After a good two years of cheap talk, I finally sat down for a day and made myself a website. And here it is. It's still a work in progress and I have quite a lot to add at this stage, but at least I have that very heavy ball rolling. The site should go live tonight at some point. Check it out
HERE.

Crazy Adventures in Places

Ingleton is crazy full of waterfalls, hills and caves. I apparently came here when I was young but I'm rather skeptical as I don't have any recollection of this.





























If there was an award for the greenest beach huts, Hill Head Beach would win it hands down.




Hat Fair


























This is my design for the Winchester 2010 Hat Fair. It will go on the posters and will be the programme cover too. A better explaination can be found here, whether or not the quotes are the real deal. As you can probably guess I'm super chuffed.

Tshit


S'up blog, how about some tshirt designs? These are just the roughs, I'm sure I'll be editing my favourites with print/pattern at some point. I'm wondering how best to create them, any suggestions? Screen printing or something else? I'd like to go for the something else as screen printing doesn't go so smoothly with me.
