Scribble Sunday #31
I finally got round to watching ‘Beats, Rhymes and Life: The Travels of A Tribe Called Quest’ all the way through. One of my favourite parts of the film was the opening credits, everyone needs to watch them! This was inspired by the credits and film in general. I was gonna do it on paper but found an old bit of shelf and thought ‘why not?’ lol

The London Art Fair (part 2)
The top two images were my favourite pieces at the fair, so original/well executed!

London Art Fair (part one)
The London Art Fair hit town this week and I managed to make it down to the preview on Tuesday night. Here’s a few pics, unfortunately no names to credit the artists - in my defense the (free) champagne was flowing freely. Enjoy!

Wish I Was There….. Sooo Bad!
Last week saw the close of an exhibition of prints by Keith Haring at Pace Prints in New York. Apparently he was fascinated by the process of printmaking and by the sounds of it managed to utilise quite a few of the processes throughout his career. Anyway the show looked insane, really wish I could have seen it but alas I live in London. Also if anyone knows where I can get those Haring wedges please let me know, they are beyond!

Artist of the Week: Hikari Shimoda
I much prefer her earlier work (circa 2007) to the newer stuff. There’s something a bit disturbing about the solitary children with vacant eyes and withered hands. I particularly love the more detailed floral back drops on the first two images but unfortunately I don’t think that’s her preferred style.

Artists of the Week: Scott Radke
Scott Radke’s handmade marionette dolls kinda remind me of a slightly more twisted Tim Burton though apparently they’re not meant to translate as ‘dark’ or ‘goth’ art. Either way there’s something really beautiful and melancholy about them.
