Geoff McFetridge's Illustrations + Weekend Links


Well it's that time of the week again. It's been another busy one for me, with work, the blog and a couple of other projects. It's left me feeling a bit drained actually, I think a day off is in order. I managed to avoid anything Trick or Treat related, the old "pretending you're not at home" job really worked! We did however buy a pumpkin, but flipping forgot to carve the thing. How did you guy get on?

This week I'm enjoying Geoff McFetridge's illustrations from his 2012 exhibition, Around Us, Between Us. See more here. I mentioned last week that I'm heading down to London in a couple of weeks, finding a place to stay is proving tricky. Can anyone recommend any affordable hotels in a central location? I'll be catching up on blogs this weekend so feel free to send me your links on here or Twitter.

Enjoy your weekend guys, try and get some downtime!

  2. I love the photos of Kings County Distillery! I've been carving a fair few pumpkins but we still have one more that got forgotten about. I'll have to do that today. :)

    The poster has a real Japanese feel to it I find, probably the use of colours I reckon! I love the layering of the figures, very clean cut. I was in Wales for a week and came back yesterday so we didn't get trick or treaters, although mom did give a few kids 50p though when we were walking down the street!

    The photographs promoting the alan shirt is brilliant. The Toblerone shot is just too wonderful for words. Poor alan and his unfortunate Toblerone addiction. Have a good London stay too by the way!

    We were so boring we didn't even buy a pumpkin! Kind of sad really.

  6. "pretending you're not home" is hilarious! i did that once but made the mistake of opening the door once. i lived in a queens, ny apartment and once you open that door and the trick or treaters see you everyone flocks over to your door! :) hope you had a good weekend!

  7. Omg, omg, omg - I had to stop at Alan Partridge - one of my all time favorites!!! Not too many people know of the show here in the states so it's awesome when I come across another person that appreciates the humor. Okay, going back to check out the rest of the links. :)
