So, I've been seriously consumed by commission work and this whole t-shirt printing thing... a situation that always, always makes me come up with amazing ideas that I just have to pursue but, of course, don't have time. Then when I do have time, I can't think of a thing to do. 

Anyway, here's an excessive amount of images for your eyeballs and mindtanks to feast upon. 

It's been the most incredible spring weekend here in Melbourne. The air literally reeks of blossoms and my pup has been going crazy in the creek, chasing birds and butterflies through fields of yellow wildflower-weeds into the tiny, gentle waterfalls... I actually had to stop and laugh at how incredible life is. 

Which is what you want. 

And hey, the first pre-order round of shirts go out tomorrow... Continually exciting times here. 

sometimes you've got to kill 4 or 5 

thousand men before you somehow 

get to believe that the sparrow 

is immortal, money is piss and 

that you have been wasting 

your time.

- Bukowski, Man in the sun

Somedays, half-remembered lines from songs or poems or books clatter around in my head non-stop. I'm not sure if that gives them any significance, or if today is just the day my memory decides to fixate on a Bukowski poem I read when I was 19. 

.... Although, now that I think about it, the most frequently played mental loop lately has been a Bachman Turner Overdrive song. And when I think about it that way, I hope there isn't too much significance to the things that run laps in our brains. 

Rising eye crop available here.

This is for eternal enlightenment seekers. For arriving in a place you’ve never seen before. For discovery. For hastily written notes and heartfelt sketches.

This is for Pink Floyd in the midnight dark. For hand drawn temporary tattoos. For real ones. For last night’s conversations and this morning’s coffee.

This is for beat-up boots kicking up dust. For concho hatbands and silver jewellery.

For the first read of Walden and the first light of the day.

This is for your meandering soul. 

And so this is the other style that is up in my online store.

This is one of my favourite designs, I'm not sure why... It just sings to me, I guess.

But anyway, I'm sending out the first lot of orders this coming Monday, which is exciting... 

After that, both shirts will be available for pre-order again for another two weeks, until September 16, when I'll wash out the screens and embark on some new endeavour.  

I just have to decide what that endeavour will be....

Images from here, here, here, here,  here, and here.

Watchin' the visions, listenin' to the voices;
Drinkin' beer, raisin' hell.
