The last poster I did for früjch. Feeling the definition of bittersweet. Always thought it was a sappy word, but am feeling it now…Sappy me.

Ah yes, the title “Früjch Me Baby One Last Time” [...]
Gum wrappers, shillings, a crumpled piece of tissue – Are the things in your pockets cool or ew?
Over at Face Your Pockets, anything goes. They just want to see what is in it. Weapon of choice? The scanner.

A confession: Poor Jonny got so sick walking back and forth and back and forth. Haha. Somehow I suspect I’m never going to get a DSLR, too many functions. The boy does want one though, so… good luck to him.

I seem to have an affinity with hanged (hung?) geese. Will explain later.

There are other designs (see above [...]
You know, I forgot how much I love Mark Ryden’s work and the creeps they give me, till last week when I was working on one of the layouts for John O’Sullivan’s poems (this poem anthology they’re actually letting me put together at Qube).
