Lots to do - mainly tidying up!

product placement
I seem to have lost the thread with my World Cup related posts, so here is an archive piece to get back on track (even though Italy are out of the competition now).

'Divided'
A while back, I was asked if I’d like to contribute some
work to a new ‘zine all about Croydon, showing all the creative things
happening in and around the area.
Although I live over the border, down SE20 way, I’m often in the town
centre shopping and drawing, so I thought it would be good to get involved.
My contribution is a double page B&W ‘graphic novel’
style set of drawings accompanying a story by Amar Tamarini. The complete first issue is available free online

Piling up
I'm taking part in an Art Trail which is happening this weekend as part of the Crystal Palace Overground Festival. I thought it might be nice to have a pile of my favourite books on a table for visitors to flick through.
Details of the Art Trail are at http://palacearttrail.weebly.com/

Anyone for Tennis?
Lunchtime today in Wimbledon town centre, where the 'Love Wimbledon' team were launching their Big Screen. For those who are not lucky enough to get tickets to the real thing, you can sit in the deck chairs and experience a little of the atmosphere for free. There are even a couple of astroturf sofas to relax on.

Float, float on...
An old milk float converted to sell frozen yoghurt parked up in Granary Square, Kings Cross, London - one a selection of food trucks selling food in the new public space. Now that door to door deliveries are rare, it's nice to see the vehicles being recycled for other purposes.

World music
The Horniman Museum in Forest Hill, London has a vast array of musical instruments from all over the world. I drew some from Japan and Nigeria as part of my World Cup related posts. Conch trumpet - the next Vuvuzela?

Old town, Croydon
Some lovely old houses in the centre of Croydon which are easily missed. Still trying to find out more about them but I thought they would be a good example for a World Cup related drawing for England

The Gold Coast
A taste of Ghana can be found at The Gold Coast bar and restaurant in South Norwood.
The first of 32 World Cup related drawings - hopefully!

Going East
Some snaps from the PV at the Espacio Gallery in Shoreditch last night. The South London Women Artists are holding an exhibition entitled 'Colourswatch' in which all the members were randomly given a swatch of colour and asked to interpret it.
The exhibition continues until June 17th and you can find out more about it here at http://www.southlondonwomenartists.co.uk/slwa-events-exhibitions/colourswatch-press-release.html
