Lecker Zine Issue 1

I'm really excited to have my 'Indian Sweets' illustration included in issue 1 of Lecker zine. The issue features contributions from over 30 writers, cooks, artists and people generally talking about food. The first edition has sold out but keep an eye on the Lecker website for the second edition, which will be released before Christmas. Lecker podcast was created by Lucy Dearlove in 2016 and I highly recommend listening to it! Front cover illustration is by Holly Gorne and my piece sits alongside a poem by Jennifer Obidike.

When Lucy sent out the request for submissions, I had just finished my risograph print of 'Indian Sweets' at Rabbit Road Press, so submitted it. My print is pink ink on yellow 160gsm card and comes as a signed edition of 10. It features all my favourite Indian sweets and is available to buy from my Etsy shop.

Pottoms zine

Pottoms zine! Original made for Jack because we always talk about them. Round, old eccentric men (you get female ones but they're more savvy). A mixture of Monty from Withnail and I and Frank Spencer from Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em, asexual, extremely unlucky, they have excellent manners and obsessive hobbies.

A6 sized and eight pages of drawings available to buy from my Etsy for £2.

When in Rome - It's Nice That

My zine 'When in Rome' was featured on January's Things on It's Nice That. Have a look here.

When in Rome

I have been working on a book of colourful felt-tip drawings of people I saw in Rome in March, whilst walking around. I've compiled eighteen into a 24 page paperback book with patterned endpapers and a shiny cover. It is available to purchase from my Etsy shop here. £1 from every sale will be donated to Macmillan Cancer Support.

Fashion Revolution zine - Money Fashion Power

I stitched a portrait of Chandra Singh, a tailor for Creative Handicrafts, a supplier of @peopletreeuk, embroidered for Fashion Revolution fanzine MONEY FASHION POWER.

The proceeds of this non-profit fanzine will go towards growing the @fash_rev movement and to help keep on pushing for positive change in the fashion industry.

FWYL

I illustrated 'This Is Hardcore' by Cath Bore in 'Fuck What You Love', a zine put together by Claire Biddles, designed by Kate Dunstone and featuring illustrations from Jessica Taylor. Popstar crushes explored through writing, design and illustrations from over 20 women and queer people.

Val zine

I started working on this zine shortly after New Year, inspired by the films of Val Kilmer circa 1986-1995. It highlights seven of Kilmer's films - Top Gun, Willow, The Doors, Tombstone, True Romance, Heat and Batman Forever. You can buy it at my Etsy page. I'll be showcasing the original drawings in a joint show with Millie Easton in the near future.

Expedition No.1: The Eastern Forests

I will be exhibiting a new embroidery 'Dwelling' alongside a few zines showing small cabin like dwellings of tiny inhabitants or spirits of 'The Eastern Forests', as part of a secret club's exhibition next week. Above is a preview of the zine (I'll reveal the embroidery online shortly after the exhibition). Zine available to buy here too.

Jægergårdsgade 57, 8000 Aarhus C, Denmark

Explore The Eastern Forests, where 14 Danish and international artists have joined a secret club and created fabulous works of art, that tell of the forests and the animals, tribes, plants, and beings that live there.

Rest in the Supplies Café with coffee and cake. Solve a HAMA bead sudoku or have a go at our collage-material pick'n'mix. Follow on Twitter or Facebook to see which cakes are fresh out of the oven and when.

Free family workshops: Thursday 17th April between 2pm and 5pm and Monday 21st April from 1pm-4pm, you can drop in and learn how to look like one of the creatures of The Eastern Forests.

Visit us on Saturday 19th April between 2pm and 5pm to make a glorious medal, fit for the most intrepid explorers.

Both workshops can be completed in approx.20 minutes, but if you're having fun, it can take a lot longer.
