Rebekah Roy - Stylist Stuff

Rebekah Roy, one of the top fashion stylists in the UK wrote an article about me in her blog

Sound of Rum

Went to see Excentral Tempest's band Sound of Rum at a Sunday Best night. She quite simply took it to the next level. Coming from the spoken word scene it is always great to see such talent shining. One to watch!

Marc Rogoff and Elle Magazine

Two things to tell you about. Firstly I got together with photographer Marc Rogoff to do a photo shoot. He is a very talented man who has been involved with many projects and industries in his time. Now settled into photography his biography is here. He also has a great blog and you should check out 'David's House'.
As well VV Brown was interviewed for Elle magazine and mentioned a crystal headed person at a party, I wonder who that could have been? This was brought to my attention by Fred Butler one of the best accessory makers in the UK.

Luxury face painting by Kat Sinclair

My professional body painter and friend Kat Sinclair has been a busy lady. I met Zoe Halfon owner of Papa Razzi at September '08 LFW. Zoe makes fabulous clutch hand bags that look like magazines. Zoe has seen my head designs and her friend Laura was having a masque Birthday party but didn't want to wear a mask. So Zoe suggest for Kat to come and paint a mask onto Laura's face. See the final design with crystals.

Kat was also at another party themed on animals with designs such as birds and zebra prints as below. So ladies and gentlemen if you want to feel that little bit special and don't want to go as far as shaving your head, call on Kat and she will do incredible job. Welcome to the art of accessorising.

Matt Black

One of Lazy Gramophone's artists in residence Matt Black won Don't Panic's poster competition. His image 'Chaos' has been made into 5000 posters to be distributed around the UK in Don't Panic's flyer packs.

Matt's 'Shark!' piece will also be displayed on the London Underground by Art Below.

Dream Machine

My friends and I went to the October Gallery in London to see Brion Gysin's art work and famous creation the dream machine. He was part of the Beat Generation and I remember creating one of these with friends at University. As in all explainations find more at Wiki.

Benin City

Benin City are one of the best bands around. Coming from the spoken word scene they have evolved into a afro-funk outfit. You can listen to tracks here. Fronted by Musa Okwonga and Joshua Idehen they breathe originality with such tracks as 'Boogieman'.



I have started to help them make their own style. Find Musa with a broach (esk) quill on his lapel that I made in reference to him being a poet.
