Today I made some art...



To some the above four screenshots may not seem like much, but to me they are a creative break in a long period of time where I have suffered from (without wanting to sound totally pretentious) "artist's block". The trouble with moving home to my parents' house for summer was not only lack of physical space, but a shortage of space to think and be free to do weird arty "me" things. As a result, I ended up spending countless hours in the library looking for research and "inspiration" on the internet, getting deeper and deeper into the wanting to make "logical" art work as a product of research. The moment I stopped thinking and just did something, I felt far more accomplished than trawling through pages of artists work wishing I was as witty and clever as them. So I'm just leaving this here as a reminder to stop over thinking stuff and JUST DO SOMETHING!!! :)

East Street; Azn in Ldn...


My rubbish photos definitely do not do the place justice! (need to step up my blog photo game) I've wanted to eat here since we went to Tampopo in Reading for a friend's birthday. This was pretty much the same menu, but in a quirkier setting. Loved the decor and the food! After sharing the East Street starter platter, I had chicken mee goreng and Will had crab meat pad thai. Would definitely recommend for a casual meal out or some drinks :)
