Legendary Wakefield Bands

I was recently invited to make a series of postcards to celebrate the work of legendary Wakefield DIY bands of yesteryear. A series of letterpress postcards featuring the lyrics of bands such as Dugong, and Pylon are to go on show at the Wakefield Orangery between 17th September to 2nd November as part of Wakefield Literature festival.

Things I Saw On My Holiday.

Please note: there is no prize for guessing where I went. NO PRIZE, PLEASE NOTE. NO PRIZE.

Things with actual fleas, from the actual flea market.



Many skulls. Not at the flea market. Somewhere else.



No thanks! :



The insides of some very beautiful churches.





This man was supposed to be guarding the art! He seemed to have fallen asleep.



This was some of the art. People were very interested in getting their pictures taken in front of it.





Well, it would have been rude not to, wouldn't it?
