 So yesterday my friend Chloe and I got on a bus
 and travelled to wherever we could get to.

 We found some bricks made out of candy and some demonic gnomes.

We played in a children's play park in the sunshine.

And did our very best impressions of a scarecrow.

 At the end of the day I put a copy of my zine between the seats of our bus
so that it could begin a journey of its own and be picked up and placed
in another bus somewhere in Kent.
Or..yknow...be thrown away.

Glorious.

Sometimes I ask myself
'What am I doing with my life?'

Then I realise I'm being creative, resourceful
and making people smile on a daily basis.


So what else do you need in life,
other than a peg, a nut shell and a few fineliners?
Thanks for the support guys.
As always. <3

FUZZWALD UPDATE:
Because I know you all prefer him to me.
He's been settling in lately but we might have to move him out of the hallway soon;
The Postman is getting suspicious.
I just thought I'd show you that I made a gingerbread Fuzzwald!
Over the year Fuzzles -thats what his friends call him- has been made from 
many different materials. If you can think of any cool
materials to make a little mini Fuzzwald from; tell me!
I'm thinking cake.
Right, off to eat more gingerbread.
I'm addicted.

 I am completely astounded that despite
receiving this tiny bear-shaped lovely for a birthday present a few years ago
I had never actually used it.

So I used it.




 Some of the sugar caramelised and made these bears look
a little worse for wear.

I am eating them all as I type.
They so good.
YUMYUMYUM.

There are these plain t-shirts in New Look right now that
are £3 and I snaggled two and drew a bear on one.
Stupidly I got curry (delicious vegetable masala nyumnyum.) down  it and I tried to scrub it off
and it made it even worse.

This is why I can't have nice things!!!
I'm having a big sort out in my bedroom at the moment and 
getting rid of ridiculous piles of clothes.
I'll put some photos up when I'm done methinks.

Minnie Mouse ears from 'Mickey Mouse Land':£6

 Stupidly overpriced butter for home-made ginger cupcakes: £1.85 

 Seeing the cutest little girl in the world hugging my favourite home-made monster:
PRICELESS.

It was a really lovely family get-together on Sunday.
I want to be a child again.

Too Much Paper.

Hello, I know this is the 2nd post within a day 
(and I have another one in the making about today's antics.)
but I'm having a little crisis and I thought I'd come 
spew about it here.

The problem is: I have done too much art.
Now, this isn't something I saw lightly
because truly I don't think you can EVER do enough art.
But finding a place to keep my art that dates back to when I was little
is becoming an impossible task.
My room is currently layered with A1 sheets, sketchbooks and various mischief-making monsters that
I've accumulated over the years. My drawers bursting to the brim with collage materials.
The picture above is only a fraction of the damage
and I'm in complete despair of what to do.
I can't throw it out. I mean, I could....
But each one is a memory and a part of me.
I just can't quite bring myself to throwing away several days, months and years of my life.

Most of it is broken and otherwise unsellable.
Unless I can convince all those rich eccentrics that ALL view my blog
that I will someday be very famous and that it is an investment.
Something tells me that won't happen though.
I would genuinely consider giving all of it away for free too,
but its the trouble of who and how to transport and why anyone would want
a giant paper moose head whose ears have fallen off...

So I come to you, humble blog reader, to ask you...
What shall I do with all my art?
If you're an art-maker yourself; what have you done in the past?
Ever regretted throwing work away?
I'd love to hear anyone's thoughts on the matter because anything would help.
You can either reply here or if you want to get a swifter reply you can email me:

Thanks for reading,
Keep calm and draw things.
