Hey, I found a video of me wearing my big skull mask with the gears and moving parts! This was Mardi Gras morning and the mask was already falling apart; the rotating crossbones had stopped working and the whole thing was becoming sort of rickety. Try not to build machines out of paper mache, maybe!

I'm incredibly sad to hear that Catherine O'Hara has died. She was a bit of a comedy hero of mine. A proper old school improv clown genius.

I sometimes despair that the camera can never really capture just how amazing the natural world can be. But sometimes, just sometimes, the winter light hits those reeds and all those reflections pop... #birds #birdphotography #birding #photooftheday #photography #NatureIsAmazing

I’ve now put these four very small but quite memorable and textural tiny paintings up in my paintings shop. In case anyone wants art that doesn’t take up much physical space but rather is intangibly colossal. Yes.

In this scene from the ‘House of Jason’ in Pompeii. We see Eros in a doorway apparently having engineered the meeting of Paris and Helen in Sparta. What happens next will shock you!
