Sat On A Banana


I went to the Rude Britannia exhibition at Tate Britain today. It was really interesting but I still want a Scarfe scarf which is now something like £65 but still way too expensive.
However, my mum had a voucher so she let me have the free ticket and so I spent the money on the catalogue/book thingamie. :D My excuse is that it is very useful for our research project. Actually I wish it was on when I was writing my essay on comics. 
The room guide is amazing: it has drawings by Simone Lia! 
Also my mum sat on a giant black banana and got told off by the security guy. On the way back she said "better not tell Dad I sat on that giant banana." Which I thought was hilerious.

"Every Trip is an Art Trip!"

haha, that is what i said in reply to my friend stating it wasn't an art trip when we went to london....i sound strangely optimistic!
ANYway here's a whole pile of sketchs done in various places i've been lately with friends...including cardiff and london and 2000 tress festival (which was GREAT). I left my moleskine there but the awesomely kind woman, who painted my face into a strange red panda, sent it back to me! It arrived on my birthday no less! She brilliantly helped the notion of the kindness of strangers and i sent her a print of a red panda i drew a while back as a thank you.
'nough said, here's some pictures...
