BACK TO BASICS
I haven’t really painted many ‘proper’ pieces this year. I think with all the 3D / mecha / experimental stuff last year I’ve naturally come back around to good old throw up letters. I’ve always felt like my throw ups are a bit lacking, so it’s nice to finally dedicate some time to the fundamentals…

OUT OF BOUNDS
Dusseldorf is criss-crossed by a large network or active and abandoned train lines, most of which are easily accessible if you don’t mind navigating the junkies and piles of decades-old rubbish. I’ve been having a great time exploring these weird old spaces on the weekends.

MUNICH
Started my new job working (partly) in Munich at the beginning of the year. I also bought a new camera – a Fujifilm XT-5. It’s fucking beautiful, both as a piece of physical engineering and in terms of the pictures it produces. I took it to Munich with me and managed to snap some pics…

PRETTY GOOD MUSIC (VOLUME 3)
Issue 3 of Pretty Good has just gone to print, so once again I’ve put together a little mix of tunes that I was listening to while I was making it, and it’s available here to download for free while I wait for the zines to arrive. It’s all over the place as usual, I’m…
