Hiya Tuesdee ... between my workload today we have more flux and it’s typographic adventures, life just keeps giving eh.

Make of this what you will, but whatever happens it’s gonna be exceptionally good.

Accept and proceed ... with fu***ng gusto.

A nod yet again to Wim and his early werk with the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.

Hiya Tuesdee Bipeds. It’s been suggested that maybe I should show a bit of process behind the marks ... so here goes. Don’t expect any sense here right.

Of course it starts with a pencil and grey matter, oh and gridded paper, everything needs self enforced laws - which of course you bend a little. Then we add a number of circles on top of those there squares to achieve the rough desired look and feel. This big old W is harking back to 1990’s rave / dance / club culture in spades, hence the Wip3out / Aphex typographic aesthetic going down, which is when I began whittling circles ...

Holy f**k - I love type long time.

More to come as the process continues ...

Hello there humans, so last week I may have entered the Mid-Life zone or rather ‘not sure what zone’ - anyways I’ve been wanting to honour a significant moment in my life for two years now and I’ve finally committed. Yet with that came more ... it continues right.

Thanks to Ash Lewis, Jersey Realism tattoo artist for putting ink on a circle whittler and may I say he passed the ‘Helvetica’ test - could have gone to s**t like and been mistaken for the dreaded ‘Arial’.

Happy Mondee all. So we have more flux in progress, the absolute true sentiment behind this work is pretty obvious.
So let’s say no more ... apart from - complete respect / love and appreciation went into every thought / lead break and vector point above.

This may well be the final piece for flux, more to do before it’s ready to exhibit but nearly there ... see you in two years 😆

Title:
Happiness - this one’s for you ###

A nod to the Dutch master Wim Crouwel.

Thursdee y’all - the following five posts are a recycling of some unused Iconography workings - may as well have some overprint fun. Thought I’d go down the Karel Martens route, those who know know, you know.
