I once went on a weekend trip to Leicester and while sitting around in our ridiculous Fawlty Towers-esque B&B we discovered the local Indian TV channel. It played Bollywood musical, a deeply strange and faintly perverted kids show and Cooking with Kuldeep, a cooking show hosted by a very elderly man. Every other step of his recipes would be to "add juuuust a little more cream," at which point he would empty the pot and open a new one. I'd say Kuldeep's curries were about 89% cream. It was most entertaining
I'm glad you're alive:
The one-time slogan of the Mae-Shi, one of the most exhilarating bands out there. Their shows are completely demented. The last one I went to involved a parachute and the bassist rocking out so hard he lost a shoe and became hopelessl;y entangled in some fairylights. I have a t-shirt that says this, and whenever I wear it strangers stop me to say that they're glad I'm alive too. It's a very feelgood shirt.
naked:
I'm a closet nudist. If I'm at home, I'm probabaly naked. I also love life drawing and studying the naked form. It's endlessly fascinating.
newspaper cuttings:
I have an antique suitcase stuffed full of newspaper cuttings, photographs and odds and ends, like a gigantic scrapbook. It's a hoppy and a huge source of inspiration for my artwork.
schparkle schparkle:
Or sparkle sparkle; I'm a magpie of the worst kind.
Water:
I love anything and everything to do with it. I was born by the sea and I have the sea-longing. I sail and I used to swim competitively, dive, canoe, all of it. A great deal of my artwork is water-based. The beach and the ocean is my favourite place on earth.
We make our heroes:
I had a dream once that I ran a record company called We Are The Vertebrae. Our slogan in the dream was We Are The Vertebrae: We Make Our Own Heroes. In real life I made a limited run of t-shirts with this print because I didn't want to lose that idea.
