I have just finished moving the ∆SPHALT blog over from tumblr - which is now going to act solely as an inspiration gallery. Its cold out there, like Mad Max on a sun-kissed afternoon. Ive been longing after more of a Cheers vibe. You'll never get me on Twitter tho!

THE PARABOLA PROJECT

..................................................

The people at VENN Graphic Design, based in Penryn, Cornwall asked me to illustrate a short story for their latest publication, in collaboration with Telltales - a literary evening held in Falmouth and run by Clare Howdle. The Parabola Project is a selective collection of short stories, poetry and prose by a group of local writers from Telltales, and is accompanied by imagery from a variety of different working artists in and around Cornwall. The superb perfect bound soft-back is available to buy online and features some fantastic design by Zander Grinfield from VENN. Thanks again go to Clare and Zander for asking me to contribute.
