SIGNED SHAUN TAN PRINT

So beautifully delish. A present from my Matthew.

PRESENTS FROM BUILD

Oh god. Oh god. Oh sweet mother of jesus and all of his men and the horses they all rode in on. I now own, my very own, Designers Republic issue of Emigre from 1994. That's VINTAGE. My anniversary with my beloved beau, Matthew, was fast approaching, so I whipped into action a few months prior and emailed Michael C Place from Build, London, to ask if there was any hope of them having left over stock, or any spare copies of, well, really anything. Including Emigre, when Michael was working for The Designers Republic. His wife Nicky and I, from there on in began and cyber friendship where we'd wait for each others exchange of doting conversial wordstrums, see yous, thankyous and all the bests. Luckily enough, they were about to post alot of stuff that was just hanging around the studio up on their blog, to sell, so I got first dibbs on everything!! And scored one of the two Emigres that were left! Choice! Here are some photos of gift unwrapping on a day in October.

–1994 The Designers Republic issue#29 of Emigre Magazine.

–Beautiful postcards of Michael and Nicky's two kittys. Brockman & Betty.

–BUILD vs DETUND silkscreen w/ flouro pink overlay poster.

This is a huge almost A1 poster designed back in 2006 by Michael for Detroit Underground. It cost me a little over $100 but was absolutely, completely more than worth it. They only had a few left and I'd been searching to get this for Matt for so long, so I'm lucky I snapped it up.

SOME NEW THINGS

My very first solo show.

I was slightly rushed and churned out what I needed to. I sold a few pieces and the rest came home with me and reside in my living room with all the other junk.

Recently Matt and I sank our teeth into a beautifully huge warehouse in Prahan. A crazy big studio space to live the dream and live and breath art and design. So stay tuned for some sweet sweet burning love.

Merry Christmas

Here is just a small publication that was designed for a college brief by a girl I came across on Behance. I quite like the cover Infact, I love the layout and shapes of the monochrome images. Very nice work, although the design of the inside pages, no way near compliment the jacket and aren't really worth a mention.

THE ART OF BARBIE

It's been forever. It's been far too long. It's taken me until now now now. And thus it's ringing clearer than ever. I'm procrastinating. I'm actually aware of a purposeful distraction. I caught myself doing it. I'm still doing it. Even now. And now.

But it has been a while. A great slab of time. I guess I lost interest and I am soon to have my very own website to sift through my of my work. Made stuff and stuff that help me made stuff. Yumm. But in the interim, here's something i hope you'll really like.....

THE ART OF BARBIE

Edited by Craig Yoe

(1995)

A beautiful book, dawning a front cover illustrated by Andy Wahol, filled with 100 artists impressions of the ever perfectuous, Barbie. Here are a few images of it taken from the internet I found across my travels.

—Barbie at the beach

—Put another shrimp on the Barbie mate.
