Pulp International
This blog is great (check title). It's got all the old/vintagey kinda comic book covers and plenty of sexy lady imagery with an interesting twist. These are a few of my favourites.
I'm currently working on a new zine. It's called 'sexy ladies in space' - pictures will be up when complete!

Victorian Erotica
I am in love with victorian erotica at the moment. After discovering the book 1000 nudes a while back,I've admired the photos. I think they are beautiful and some of them are hilarious. The women have very androgynous bodies and are often pictured in landscapes or doing odd things. I think its great how funny the photos are now but back then they were a scandal. Take a look at these bad boys.

John Stezaker at Whitechapel
I've got a great exhibition to recommend for those of you in the old london area. The pictures are great in real life and there's masses of work to look at. John Stezaker at the Whitechapel. He works in collage and most of his stuff is from the 70s but there are a few recent pieces too. What I loved about the exhibition was that the collages all looked so effortless but striking. All of his final pieces were found imagery I think and they really worked. Definitely worth a look.

Stuff!
Here are interesting pictures I have taken on my travels around London in the past few months(on my phone so bad quality).Enjoy!
Summer 2010.Brighton.
I felt so immature finding this and laughing but I couldn't help it.
This picture was taken when I went for a meal at Christmas time back home. When I ordered the chocolate clown ice-cream,I wasn't quite expecting this. Probably should have to be honest considering it's in the name. I wondered why the waitresses laughed.
January 2011. Leicester square. London.
Yes,there is a road in London called cucumber alley. Everyone should go there!
Some people doing a protest. I was eating lunch outside the portrait gallery (alright for some eh!) and I spotted these guys going past. They chanted something,can't remember what though.
February 2011. Surbiton.
Spotted this in a charity shop. Another immature innuendo. It's weird because the book caught my eye (sigh) but then I looked inside and the title had ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with the contents inside...weird. I chuckled anyway.
My next plan is to take more street name pictures in London. There's a road in Liverpool street area called frying pan alley for crying out loud.

Happy New Year
It's taken me a while to post since christmas but here we go. Happy New Year!
There's an amazing radio podcast called 'This American Life' distributed by Public Radio International in America which I like to listen to and on saturday I met David Sedaris,who is a regular contributer to the radio show. My boyfriend and I got tickets to his radio show from the BBC. He spent the whole night reading passages from his diary and anecdotal stories he has written. He's a very well known author in America and even though he's a lot older than me,I'd describe him as adorable,real and loveable. When I met him he drew a sleeping kitten in my sketchbook!
Also, here's a picture of my current portfolio which has been specially designed by my boyfriend.
