A few things:

Finally got some wheels sorted. Picked this Humber 3 speed from Fareham. Brakes are pretty sketchy but fun on the flat. Went for a little ride to the chessil today and took some photos.

My friend Chess got a full page in 'Salisbury Life' magazine this month. Check out her stuff HERE. And finally some Brainscan hype. Issue two soon!

Cameras:

Heres a few old cameras I've been drawing recently. Didnt really bother with proportions this time and just really got into the detail. This is going to be a bigger piece I think but here's four for now. (Click for detail)

Carolyn White Photography:

Here's the final version of a logo I just created for Carolyn White - An events photographer who does a lot of work for various festivals including Endorset and Larmer Tree. You can see her work here. For all design work just send an e-mail to me at: joe_col@hotmail.co.uk

Zenit:

Been taking a few photo's with my grandads Zenit-E lately. Just getting used to it really but here's a few that came out okay from my first film.

Run over by a turtle!:

Issue 2 of Brash just came my way! 3 colour screen printed cover and fold-out insert. No messin! Cheers Alana. www.alanasartwork.blogspot.com

Twestival:

Finished my placement at revolting last week. Got to work on some cool projects and everyone was real nice. Did a bit of interface design which is something I've never had a go at before and also got to work on a photography shoot with Andy Whale. Here's a logo I created of the London Twestival competition whilst I was there.

Elemenophant:

I'm not sure why the long trunk but it definitely made it more fun to draw.

Snowside:

Heavy metal:

Went hunting round a few junk shops the other day. One guy was well nice and after spying my board, mentioned he'd come across something I might like. After a lot of rummaging he produced this beast of a longboard made entirely of metal. 5 pound well spent.

Business cards:

Printed some new business cards t'other day. Ten to collect!

Hip to be cool:

Doodled this idea down a while back but forgot to ever draw it up til now. Turned up when clearing out an old drawer and thought I'd give it another chance. It also made me realise I would like to have a go at making a stained glass window one day.

BDP & PIP:

This week I have mostly been drawing to the sounds
of Boogie Down Productions and Mr Pip.

Oh.. and this one won't leave my head either.

Also managed to grab a shot of the fleet at 5 in the morn on the way home after a prom at Portland Sailing Academy.

No more straw:

Broke my teeth about two weeks ago now
and I'm definitly bored of straws. I would
also love a cup of tea. Hopefully someone
will fix my face soon.
