My collage / rough for KUEDO found on ffffound / LANCIA TREND VISIONS

randomly found one of my collages / roughs on ffffound

uncredited collage on LANCIA TREND VISIONS

Just found these on ffffound, linked from www.lanciatrendvisions.com .
It's so weird when you come across your work online, especially when it's uncredited...

This is a collage from this project I did for KUEDO's EP cover art.

Another old drawing I found today, of the SAN VITALE church

another old drawing ...

I don't normally do architectural drawing, but was organising my computer today and came across this. It was for BBC Bristol in (I think) 2007. Old ting.

'THIGH HIGHS' - Really old drawing ... cerca 2007

THIGH HIGHS (really old drawing cerca 2007)

Organising all the files on my computer today (translation: procrastinating) and found this old drawing I'd forgotten about. I remember I hated it at the time and almost threw it away, but looking at it now I quite like it, so thought I'd share.

Hope you're having a super Wednesday. It's raining and grey here in Bristol, I hope it's not as miserable wherever you are...
