The Quiet Side Of Midnight – Priptona Art
The “art” very much comes and goes in waves these days. I must be needing some visual therapy as I have found myself working on the visual side of things again these past few days. I don’t feel anywhere near as depressed and “affected” as I did this time last year leading up to my…

Killing Time By Ogling
What to do when there’s a massive outage of Facebook, Instagram, Messenger and WhatsApp? Make banner art, of course! And be overt with it…
Bowie Talk – Missing Jim – Sexy Songs – Minds Music Monday – Lightning
I miss Monday’s the way they used to be. Actually, I miss just about how every day would start a few years back. When I was getting into Simple Minds and getting myself involved in the fanbase, the thing that always seemed to make every day feel like it started off on the right note…
