New Year's Resolution No. 10

I've had a blast today drawing a few animals for a commission, since they are pretty sparse in my portfolio (and I've been longing to draw a Bison for ages) these bad boys are No. 10! I feel a collection coming on.

New Year's Resolutions - No. 9

I have a growing collection of unusual lamp's in my flat which means I need a lot of random light bulbs. No. 9 is to replace them as soon as they blow, we have a tendency to walk around in the dark until the other one remembers to replace it.

New Years Resolutions - No. 8

I'm 27 and I don't drive, pretty lame! I grew up on a tiny island so that's my excuse.

Yes please

David Shrigley duvet , Clementine Henrion metallic rainbow!, bearded woman plate and the wire handled crate would be ace to store the millions of illustrations I have on sheets of paper!

New Year's Resolutions - No. 7

Learn to do the tango with some sexy Argentinian male dancer!

Music Crush - Vampire Weekend

Another pretty sweet tune for a Friday and this is a spectacular video! I have no idea what it is about, I'm guessing it's not the official, ha! I really want to meet the lead guy, I shall be adopting some of there stupendous moves for my dancing laters this weekend - perhaps when drunkered!

p.s another sweet VM video, this time official - watch here

New Years Resolutions - No. 6

I unfortunately don't have any Grandparents, I only really knew my Dad's Mum, who was awesome but lived miles from anyone. I always felt terrible that I didn't pop round for a brew often enough, so No. 6 is to go hang out with some older peeps, soak up all their knowledge and become a master at bridge!

New Years Resolutions - No. 5

So yesterday was pretty stressful with a large work load and the sorting of my tax; I missed my posting which in itself has created No. 5.

New Years Resolutions - No. 4

I have a habit of buying shoes just because I like the design and have no intention of wearing them - something I shall have to resolve or I will relive the poem 'There was an old lady who lived in a shoe'.

Banish my inner sloth - No. 3

My studio is always super clean and organised but I can fall back to my inner sloth every now and again at home. So this year I need to bring those cleaning feathers of mine back home more often.

New Years Resolutions - No. 2

So here is number 2, I'm still feeling a little full from the serious over consumption!

New Years Resolutions! - No. 1

Happy New Year! I hope you had a grand time seeing the clock tick over. I am setting myself a blog challenge; to draw a resolution a day! It is going to be tough as this month is going to be a busy one but I'll give it a go.

1. Go see more live gigs. I'm really into my music and I don't go to see bands as much as I used to. I might make a feature of my music crush and introduce you to the bands I am going to see.

2011 is going to be a good one, exciting times.

(today I am cheating and using a drawing I did a few weeks ago, not a great start I know but it is also my sisters Birthday so I off to hunt for the candles and party hats).

Music Crush - Au Revoir Simone

I discovered this band recently and I now have a super crush on them! I have a serious habit of playing a new newly found crush over and over again and this will be no exception. A truly great new years eve dancing tuneage! muchos bopping!

Christmas lazy days

snow walking, fish supers and the death of a snowman, twas an eventful time!
