I made a set of plain cards to sell at the Christmas Kallista Market. I love things to be special and handmade, and I love colouring in. This meant what was supposed to be an easy way to make a bit of cash turned into a week long colouring bonanza, making the cards worth a wee bit more than what anyone was going to pay for them. So I still have them all. If anyone wants to buy one, they have no messages inside so you can have them for any occasion.

I worked with Alex to make the artwork for his album The Best-laid Plans of Chocolate Mice. We became friends during my another dead possum exhibition and he especially liked my painting somewhere there's a song about bullets and bubbles which became the artwork for the back tray. It has a child-like innocent look, bright and playful, but if you decipher the symbols, you'll see that the humanoid creatures live in an environment of thunderous rainbows that tease them with toxic ice creams, the eating of which will lead to painful limb mutations and inevitably a slow and horrible death.
