nae bother

So, back from Glasgow... had a fucking blast. What a wicked group of people and a glorious shop they got going on up there....

had the chance to do some really fun work.... which always makes for a happy Julia. :)

also managed to party like it was 1999...

yes indeedy. no more will be said. what happens in glasgow, stays in glasgow. 

oh yeah, and I WENT ON A NUCLEAR SUBMARINE!!!!

true story

new beginnings is the name of a rehab.... and this blog post.

so, i started working at Skunx last week. Got my station all set up, and managed to fill my shelves in the space of a few days. It's a talent i have.

spectacular.

here's some work i've been doing as of late...

finished this off the other day too....

and yesterday, i did this reaper for my buddy Paul. He has a reaper corner... it's a thing.

super productive. even got sketching in preparation for my guest spot next week...

and i even had time to pimp out the bin at work!

so in other news, i went to a comicon recently and got my Enterprise blueprints signed by none other than Gates McFadden aka Beverly Crusher!

awesome.

right, my laptop is about to run outta juice, so that's all for now folks. til next time... live long, and prosper.

hop skip and a jump to skunx

so, as many of you may have realised my life has been slightly hectic of late, hence the lack of blogs, and the lack of time to ramble. i have some rambling time right now though, so thought i better get a moving. (i sound like woody guthrie... dont i?!)

so first up, i shall be transferring studios this month. I will no longer be tattooing at Flamin' 8 as of the 16th of July, so if u have work you want doing... i would get a wriggle on to book in with me there.

Dont fret if you cant though, coz i will be staying in London, not too far away, working at the ever awesome Skunx in Angel. Thats right folks, i can only hope i too will soon have my mug adorning that front page surrounded by blue. woop woop.... very exciting!

In other news, i shall be doing a guest spot at Forevermore in Glasgow from the 27th of July til the 6th of August... contrary to what their website says.... but dont fret i have just texted the owner to resolve that blip aka what could have been the longest guest spot ever recorded.

wowza. so what now? some tattoos? some news on what i been up to?

tattoos. best you lot dont know what i've been getting up to of late....

wow. i had no idea how long it musta been since i blogged any work.

oh, and i got my front started. 

it hurt like ... what i can only imagine being dragged across tarmac for 2.8 miles behind a speeding vehicle feels like.

i'll start at the end...

the end

my god, it has been so long since i blogged. not quite sure what happened, but it just felt like so much had happened, and so much time had passed, that i didnt even know where to begin.

so here it begins...

ummm.... so, about a month ago i went to Dartmouth for the Dart Music Festival. I seemed to only take pictures of furniture, doorways, and my dog... so here are some pics of me n harry drinking odd beverages. it'll have to suffice.

oh i also took some photos from the castle....

bought a kickass wooden tankard for simon, who i met for a roast as soon as i got back to london. he fashioned it well.... haha

we were chucking loose change in it. he sounded like a 1 man band. 

amazing.

the weekend after, i went to a comicon... with Hana and her beau, Jim.

more odd drinks...

one half of the bakewell brothers wrestling hana...

hana and jonathon ross (lmao... good effort)

me n jimmy carr who i totally fancy and am a little in love with.

love this...

oh, and i got simon's deadpool comics signed by ian churchill, and we started chatting about pencils, and i ended up holding up the queue coz he drew me a SKETCH! too awesome.

so then the week after that, me and kerry went to the south of france for a week, staying with my dad...

the first day we drove into spain...

crazy buildings, absolutely stunning.

there's some sorta pilgrimage running through the area we were in, and needless to say.... a hell of a lot of religious artwork n stuff. (pun intended). beautiful churches and cathedrals, i took so many photos...

there's too much to say about france. it was amazing. i'll leave it at that... and just post more pics...

ferris bueller tribute. 10 points to kez for keeping a straight face. especially if u could see the group of decrepid old farts on the tour with us!

the food. my god.... THE FOOD!

twas my dads birthday while we were over, and i am pretty sure he think i forgot. little did he know i can prepared, and me n kez blew up a whole pack of ballons at 2 am for him to discover when he woke up in the morning. 

:)

got back to london, it was raining, and i found out some shitty news that i wont go into.... but i got the WICKEDEST package at work my first day back from Kaye :)

totally awesome.

right, seems the work day is over, and i no longer have internet at home... so til next time....
