"I don't remember any item coming into the Pitchfork HQ and turning this many heads-- people's jaws dropped into their coffee all morning. If we were reviewing this and we were telling the average person what we think of the thing, you could argue that the score should be a 0.0. To say that Minotaur, a mega-deluxe repacking of the Pixies catalogue sold in two different configurations, is for fans only is some sort of Hall of Fame-level understatement. It sets a new record for box set grandiosity." - Scott Plagenhoef.

The Mountain Goats

Hello!

Since New Blood I've been very busy freelancing at Foxtrot Hotel, working with Vaughan Oliver and Brian Whitehead on CD artwork for The Mountain Goats, beginning some freelance illustrative work with new mug company, Graywood Green and doing a placement at BCMH.

I've taken a trip to Stoke to see about finding some fine bone china to print my Bone China designs on to.

I can't wait to get some new work up on here...I went to Greece for a week and took some lovely photos (well I hope) of derelict hotels, picturesque beaches and strange signs, but since leaving university I don't have access to a medium format negative scanner so who knows when they'll be up...for now feast your eyes on the new Mountain Goats CD cover, art directed by Vaughan Oliver, artwork by Brian Whitehead and paper type graphics title thing by me (and then re-arranged by Brian!)

Best New Blood

I received one of 36 Best New Blood awards at this years D&AD national creative talent show. YAY!
