The Corner Room, tucked away in the Town Hall Hotel, Patriot Square, E2, is a little secret treasure that is well worth a visit. I recently took German artist Olaf Hajek there on a ‘business dinner’ where we pondered over London pigeon and chianti the benefits of fine art over illustration.

It’s been a busy summer of group shows and a two month solo show at FIRST OUT café-bar, London, featuring paintings and prints from my visual blog, Rant of the Day (prints now available on Society6).

There are Halloween parties, and Halloween parties, and no-one does Halloween quite like Torture Garden, the world’s largest fetish and body art club.

I have, on more than one occasion, stored a little sketchbook and pen in my waders to visually record the experience.

This is the official video for Ed Sheeran’s new song, You Need Me, I Don’t Need You, where the lyrics are signed by an 80s Michael Jackson looka-like. It just goes to show that simple equals good. Hey, isn’t he that guy from Harry Potter?

I’ve just come across the music of Minneapolis band Cloud Cult, and their song Chemicals Collide in particular. Their sound is a mix of scratchy acoustic guitar riffs mixed in with staccato beats and airy harmonies, all infused with a beautiful sense of lyrical melancholy. Read more
