I’m taking my time machine back to an alternative past where Carry On film star Sid James was a famous surrealist artist.

A typically trepidatious first attempt to use #adobefresco . Allows you to paint in oils and watercolour ‘realistically’. But realism takes a lot of effort, and it’s going to take a long time to master - or to mess up and turn into something quite new. In fact it could be pretty amazing if used studiously wrongly. (What it really needs right now is a fan button like #adobesketch so you can halt the watercolour effect before it gets too wet) #adobe #adobedrawing #portrait #watercolour #watercolor #ipad #art #drawing #sketch

Gitan. It has exactly the 1950s-but-contemporary feel (to my eye anyway) that I’ve been looking for. It’s like my great favourite Albertus, but… moreso. Easier on the eye yet just as sculptural. So I’ve plastered it all over standarddesigns.co.uk like a total font-rube. #typography #graphicdesign #type #font #nerd #design #gitan #albertus #favourite #letters #lettering #designer #amateur #1950s #50s

Looking for new bedtime stories I turfed out this 1963 Puffin. ‘Horned Helmet’ by Henry Treece. Love the Albertus on the cover.

Bjork’s ‘Debut’ Album was released 26 years ago yesterday. TWENTY-SIX years!!! Time doesn’t just fly, it straps on a jet-pack and yells ‘See ya, suckers!’ as it zooms off into the whenever.
