The Kin Fables Trilogy
Back in September 2013 I had the great fortune to be introduced to the fantastical cinematic journey Kin Fables. I returned to this beautifully shot, dreamy production time and again. Naturally, I had to interview the team behind it - the gifted McKinnon brothers. You can read the interview here. Come 2015 and the brothers… Continue reading The Kin Fables Trilogy
Thomas G Anderson
My weekend has started exactly how I like it too...with introductions to dark art which blows my fucking mind. Thomas G Anderson's work has me on my knees in worship.

Where It’s Always Winter…
I have added some new winter products to my Redbubble shop! Now you can buy my work in the form of leggings as well as tote bags, cushions, prints, mugs…the list goes on!

Slowly waking up this Wednesday to the beautiful, electro, ambient sounds of American born, Rome based project Lykanthea.
