Went out, topped up on art supplies and foxtrotted off on an adventure with my girlfriend. Standard stuff!

Pretty much what it says on the tin!

“Wherever You Can You Got To Catch Them All”, May 2025.

Finding random things to photograph on my photo jaunts is one thing but when you find abandoned Pokemon stickers to use for your art? Yes please!

Not your average cat cafe, but it’ll do :-)

“After Watching The Americas On BBC”, May 2025.

Sperm whale time!

Rediscovered the German language versions of Peter Gabriel’s third and fourth albums (terrific btw) and come ‘Schock den Affen’ was intrigued at how the German word for ‘monkey’ sounds a hell of a lot like orphan… of course that might just be my ears, you know?

Spooky things and music time!

Casually racing through it with all the drawings… hence why it’s new sketchbook time already, hahaha! As we leave spring behind, meet “Summer Eyes”.

Time flies when you’re having fun… and so concludes another sketchbook!

Robots and whales united against transphobia!

“Utopia In Trouble (But That’s Okay)”, May 2025.

“It seems that, like plants, we do need the shit of others for nutrients.” - Robert Hughes.

When your girlfriend makes a random remark and that gives you incentive to create… not that I need much prompting!

Goblin shark time again!

Time to check in with the hammerheads…

Reflecting on catching up (albeit briefly) with old friends despite the bleak circumstances that brought us back together…

Squids with a spiritual side.

Inspired by one of the bus routes I take back home from my Judo class in the evenings and how long said journey takes in terms of minutes… you’d think it was a quick trip but I assure you it’s not!

Poison arrow frog time! With some wisdom from the late, great José Mujica included… rest in power good sir.

I woke up at 5am(ish) last Sunday and not settling back to rest, I switched my radio on and hoped for the best. Next thing I know I’m half awake listening to one of Yo La Tengo’s more drone oriented songs. The track itself was 8 minutes long but felt longer… of course, this gave me ideas. What do you expect?

Precisely that!

Squirtle fan art time! My girlfriend’s been treating me again, can you tell?
