Hey look at that! My good friends at @iam8bit.com turn 20 this year, and they are having a super anniversary show to celebrate it. So many great artists have a piece in this show, I'm thrilled to be part of it. But there's more! I got to do the invite as well.

My art for #lottobrusselsjazzweekend now also graces the cover of the first #BrusselsJazzVanguard vinyl double album. 12 inch is such a cool format to work with!

Oh Ward, this is infuriating. This sort of 'everything goes' on the internet only spirals downwards. I hope you get this sorted out, or that you don't have too much problems with it. Good luck

Here's some really great news. Joystick Jazz vol.2 just won first prize in the 2025 Print Awards. What's more, vol. 3 snatched third place! What a day.
Thank you, jury. And thank you @iam8bit.com . Never without you.

Exactly what I said

Belgian national television RTBF (French language) used my illustration as a backdrop for their item on the just finished #lottobrusselsjazzweekend . Quite great to see it like this.
