Tunnock's Tea cakes

I loved these Tunnocks biscuits/cakes (which are they) which I used to eat when I was a kid. I found them sold individually the other day and really loved the old fashioned packaging.

Evol

I love this guy Evol's stuff! Its so clever, he is a Berlin based street artist. He turns boring objects such as electricity boxes into mini stenciled buildings!

This photographer has done some really surreal stuff. Im not normally a fan of very photoshopped images but I think his use of light is just beautiful, especially in these floral shots

great quote for when your feeling unsure about the future!!

One day Alice came to a fork in the road and saw a 


Cheshire cat in a tree. "Which road do I take?" she asked. 


"Where do you want to go?" was his response. "I don't 


know," Alice answered. "Then," said the cat, "it doesn't 


matter."

— Lewis Carroll

I sold my last two pictures in Tableau


Here are the last couple of pictures I sold in Tableau, Leeds. They now have a website and blog http://tableaugifts.co.uk/




Amazing video

This genius short film shows how brand lead our society is, I have watched it several times as there is just soooo much to look at. Worth a watch. 

Coincidently I also found this book No Logo by Naomi Klein, in a charity shop it looks very interesting. It follows the rise of the brand and how it has impacted on our society



Leeds graffiti

These murals in Hyde Park are just so beautiful, I really like the style of the artwork. If I got to walk past these everyday they would really brighten my day!!



bar artwork

I saw this great Michael Jackson artwork painted on the big glass windows at Santinista bar, Leeds!

The idea behind this website is so simple and yet so intriguing.  Here is an example:





A little vintage

Found a vintage shop that isn't ridiculously expensive.

This shop situated at No.9 Otley Road in Headingley, (Leeds) had some cool stuff and the guy who served me was very friendly. I got a top for £5.. you cant go too far wrong with that!

A good old Norfolk sky... oh and my cat

A few snaps from my travels back home in Norfolk
