Dessi Terzieva is a law student and artist living in “the great city of Detroit”. She was kind enough to send in some of her handmade collages. For those who’ve been reading our lit...
I reckon they’re gonna sell a billion of these dudes. Probably to me. While we have a billion other hi-tech ways to get our RSS and social feeds from friends as they drive along the information...
David Spriggs, or ‘Spriggsy’ as I imagine his old school chums used to call him, paints on multiple layers of semi-transparent perspex – which once combined with a small distance be...
Here is a rare snapshot of an undone ‘Holly Golightly’, modest and demure. What a true lady Audrey Hepburn was. An elegant soul, always. Side point: did you know that Marily...

Now that e-readers and the information superhighway has usurped good old fashioned printed matter, the great libraries of old are collecting dust. Don’t get me wrong, a well stocked bookshelf i...
Imax and 3D be damned, the best filmic sequences are often the most simple. Gustaf Mantel clearly shares my love for the work of Stanley Kubrick and has immortalised some classic moments in the high-...
