David Bowie’s classic “Heroes” album (or should that be ‘“Heroes”’?) was released 42 years ago this week. So far I’ve made two prints based on it - tap the images or follow the link in my bio to see them in all their glory. #davidbowie #bowie #heroes #berlin #berlintrilogy #db #heroes #wecanbeheroes #justforoneday #1977 #70smusic #pop #rock #popmusic #poster #print #homedecor #giftguide #giftideas #bowiefan #davidbowiefan #davidbowiefanpage

Spotted in the local secondhand bookshop today, a humdinger from 1964 by Henry Brinton and THE Patrick Moore. The pink and blue colours were as bright as the, er, Sky At Night. I mean the stars. If you were up close to them. Ah whatever. #bookcover #bookcovers #patrickmoore #astronomy #theskyatnight #stargazing #time #design #color #colorful #brightcolours #blue #pink #1960s #60s #sixties #sixtiesdesign #bookshop #bookshopping #shopping (at London, United Kingdom)

Back to the 80s at the #anthonygormley show at @royalacademyarts . Remember when this was how people made drawings? Sculptors especially. The shadow of Richard Serra and in particular Joseph Beuys hung long and Earthily in those days. #royalacademy #london #exhibition #artexhibition #sculpture #sculptor #richardserra #josephbeuys #europeanart #art #1980s #80s #80sart #nostalgia #artschool (at Royal Academy of Arts)

Underneath the giant suspended cage thing in the #anthonygormley show at the @royalacademyarts today. Quite thrilling to think that if they’d got the risk assessment wrong one could end up as a cubed human (and thus not unlike several of the other sculptures in the show). #royalacademy #royalacademyofarts #exhibition #london #gallery #sculpture #body #space #time #thingstodoinlondon #exhibit #art #artist #sculptor (at Royal Academy of Arts)

A 10p find in the local secondhand bookshop today. Not a laugh-a-minute read, I’m guessing, but the cover (with an illustration by Erwin Fabian) is pretty nifty. #1959 #erwinfabian #illustration #penguinbooks #penguinspecials #bookshop #bookbuying #secondhand #secondhandbooks #bargain #bargainhunt #bargainshopper #bookcover #bookcoverdesign #design #typography

Canterbury Cathedral. Sketched rather rapidly in #adobefresco taken from the 1969 Batsford book ‘England In Colour’, which is rather wonderful (and a snip at only 10p in our local secondhand bookshop). Started out as an attempt to use my old conté crayon technique but with pencil, which didn’t work (it never did - difficult to be mega-bold with an HB) and then pushed to see if Fresco can still make something look engaging when one adds Too Much. I think it can. #batsford #canterbury #cathedral #canterburycathedral #england #guidebook #adobe #adobedrawing #ipad #art #artist #artistsoninstagram #watercolour #pencil #blacksndwhite #contrast #sketch #drawing #drawings
