Halloween...

Went to a great party last night. Twas a kids halloween one but the adults had to dress up too. I went as a Pumpkin Sheriff. I got very drunk...

Sold!

Well i sold two photographs this week. A lady called from a Housing Association Company and asked if they could buy the use of them to put on their calendar. I agreed. This is the first time i have sold any images and it felt good. These are the two she bought...

Kaws Dissected Companion

From there to here.

This is my sister. She has grown since this picture was taken.






When my mum and dad split my mum remarried and then my sister was born just over 21 years ago. I suppose some would say she's my half sister but I have never thought of it like that, she's my sister. Full Stop. When she was little she once told me when we were playing that 'before she was born she used to walk with jesus in a garden'. I believe her to this day. She is a photographer and a very talented one at that. She sees things very differently to others. I am very proud of her. Her work has a raw energy. At present she is studying in Manchester and partying hard. I can see her going through exactly what i went through at that age.

Polaroids...

I have been looking through some old family photos and found these ones of me. The one of me in the basket was taken at my Nans housein 1971. The others were taken at Blackpool sometime in the late 70s I would imagine. The time the Blackpool ones were taken was not the happiest time looking back but its only now that i remember it being a rough time. When the photos were taken I think I was just growing up and thought that anything strange that was going on was just normal. My Mom is schizophrenic and i have watched her go through many changes over the years. My childhood however was good as far as i was concerned and I do have happy memories.

Photography

I love taking pictures, i wouldnt call myself a photographer as i cant discipline myself in one field. I take them when i feel like it. My favourite Photographers are Larry Clark, Rebecca Tillet, Walker Evans, Peter Gorman and many more...

Saturday Morning - 6.00am

Started this Blog out of wanting something to do... maybe it will give me some focus rather than sitting around drinkin cheap cider on an evening. Its getting colder as we get closer to the winter. One week of work left before we visit Disneyland Paris next weekend. I am both looking forward to and dreading it. I have always hated the machine that is Disney. When i was in the entertainment industry the reps from Disney were like the SS. Woe be tide if you didnt have the disney stock face on. I am also awaiting my new Kaws Dissected Companion that should be winging its way to me from Japan (i collect expensive toys). Good Morning All...
