  1. Things that look like other things

    Here’s my submission for the traveling Moleskin project. I received a lovely little black book from the great Colin Jenkinson this morning. He’s done a superb spread, please check it out on his photostream and it’s filling up with some other amazing artists. A number of these iconic sketch books have been unleashed into the world to return to Leeds by the end of September. The project will culminate in a fabulous arty party and exhibition in October to help raise funds for the Campaign for Real Drawing. A great project, I’ve passed mine on, but sign up and get involved if you want to make your mark in one. It runs until the end of September and is sponsored by Thompson Brand Partners.

  2. Dec 05 2008: Heavy Pencil at the ICA

    December 28, 2008 by danlish

    My good friend SRI invited myself and Tom Ink fetish to the third installment of Heavy Pencil at the Institute of Contemporary Arts, where we took turns in showcasing a stream of conscious thought drawing, simultaneously being projected onto the ICA walls. There was no apparent theme, the only restraint being you react instinctively to the music being provided by various guest DJ’s. The event was a great success and fun was had by all + the food was fantastic!
