dwindling summer

So papergirl was absolutely lovely! I didn't take my camera as it was raining but as soon as there are photos around I will post a blog about it. There was a surplus of amazing illustration work from Newcastle; a somewhat underrated arty city, you have to dig for it, but it's there...

I was looking through old photos of my family(n'aww) and I found some treasures... Lots of really cool photos by my parents from the 80s too which I will slowly but surely upload. I have a huge backlog of things to post about I just need to jolly well get round to it.

In the meantime, here is my beautiful family.

(Look at how beautiful my mum is!)

My big brother is such a cute little button here.

(I personally think that my dad is the coolest man in existence. He worked as a fire breathing, escapology-doing clown to get him through med school and is now a psychiatrist but still really really funny and cool and awesome. Look at those glasses!)

LOOK! polaroid!

I am sick of cutting out little triangles but here is a work I am doing for the project 'papergirl'.

my room is a shit hole!!

I I

really want to start blogging conscientiously but my room is so messy that I can't possibly concentrate.

This is what it looks like and how it makes me makes me feel...

I didn't realise I actually had any followers!

Welcome, welcome, welcome one(or five) and all...

I don't know how to fulfill a genuine welcome but now the having of followers gives me an incentive to actually post I guess...

Complimentary mix of good songs for you(which I actually made for Yasmin but it's musical love worth sharin' yo)

And for something visual, here are some dolls that I made... maybe I'll post more on them, but from now on I am going to be a proper blogger.
