King's Lynn

My nan lives in King's Lynn, and we went to visit today as it is Easter Sunday. Had a nice long pub lunch and then on the way home went for a little tour of the town. Including church buildings, the market square and the quay - all of which in my many years of visiting the town, I have never seen.

Some fine signs.
Oldy-woldy pub building.
This looks like it should be on the seafront near a pier I think.
Bad type arrangement.
Best pub sign I've ever seen!
Pretty.

Flying

"There is an art, it says [Hitchhiker's guide], or rather a knack to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss."

Playground animals & thing

Similar to the dinosaurs I posted earlier in the week, here's some more illustrations for a playground.

British railway posters

I've always really liked the classic British railway posters, in particular the Underground ones. In most cases they're so simple, with clean typography and a colourful illustration. Easily notifiable and pretty iconic in British poster design. I've come across this brilliant collection British Railway posters, whilst looking for images to contrast with A.M. Cassandre's Nord Express posters for my HACCS ‘cross reference’.

Here are some of my favourites (probably quite a lot!):


I actually have an Underground poster similar to these (a print, not an original) that someone gave me, but I've never really had it up on the wall – wouldn't suit my room!

Insomniac giraffes

Dinosaurs

I've been given a little task of drawing some things for a children's play park, to be printed onto large metal boards (like road signs). I can draw whatever I like as long as children will like it. So here's some dinosaurs! I'm also going to do some classic zoo animals or something.

Cat cam IV

Slightly more decent photographs this time, considering I was still using a 24 exp. out of date film anyway. Although I think the flash died towards the end of the film as it rarely seems to work now. I will try new batteries.
