Degree show build

Some shoddy snaps of the degree show build at Kingston's Knights Park. The show has now been packed up and moved to LBi on Brick Lane. It is open all weekend with goods on sale and alot of amazing work on the walls. Creative Review did a nice little review about it on their blog http://www.creativereview.co.uk/cr-blog

RMC

Just dug out a clutch of drawings done at the Royal College of Music during the cold snap some months back. The awesome Stephen Fowler wangled permission for us to sneak into rehearsals to draw some of the RMC students. It was a fairly impressive start to the day though one session of intense violin mania was somewhat painful.

Looky Looky!

Kingston illustration and animation degree show currently up in Knight's Park Kingston is moving east London way on June 17th. It's being held at the LBi situated in the Truman Brewary on Brick Lane. The catalogue is a sticker book with 54 to collect and all in all jammed with treats much like the show. Up til June 21st.

macmillan prize 2010

The very nice people at Macmillan shortlisted my book for this year's Macmillan Prize. It is currently on display at Foyles on Charing Cross Road looking very much like this. There are some awesome books in the exhibition not to mention the amazing shop it’s housed in so pop in if you’re in and around that way. Photos courtesy of my bro.

Spread for my cowboy cookbook. The recipe book is a mini book that goes inside a bigger book. I'll stop writing book now.

I'm moving!

Well sort of. I'm opening up another blog at www.alicelickens.blogspot.com it will be remarkably like this one (it currently is exactly like this one) but under a different name. pen with pencil will still be functioning and they will remain identical for a while. Go have a gander as and when or choose to ignore this wholeheartedly. It just seems polite to mention it.

That goes with with my new book Way out West. Superz.

A smidgeon of my cowboy book. All cowboys wear Y fronts. Fact.

Been enjoying the joys of the laser cutter this week for my project on the American midwest that has turned into abit of a cowboy extravaganza. More bits to come.
