Bluesky pals, here's an early preview exclusive:
Painted these A4-sized abstract koi fish with vibrant Japanese watercolours + fine liner. Truly some of my finest work! So freshly done I haven't even signed them yet.
Any takers before I list them? £180 each or £300 both, get in touch (UK only) 😊

Little over two years between these two photos; gradually & naturally building my chest out and overcoming lifelong body dysmorphia mainly rooted in the gynecomastia that I've had ever since being an overweight kid.
Very proud and happiest I've been with my body - tattoos have helped a lot, too!

Always feel a mix of melancholy, longing and hope when I catch sight of a skein of geese off on its southward migration for the winter

Today is our 10th anniversary living in Scotland - we were two 24 & 26 year-old babies, with two suitcases, barely any savings and only each other. But Scotland embraced us, this country felt like home from the moment I first breathed it in, and it still feels like a dream to call Scotland home 🏴
