I hope you've all had a great xmas so far? I've just heard that my ibook has been fixed. I've had a brilliant christmas so far - I've even painted the fireplace white. Yaye!?
Not had any time to do any updating of this site yet, but I'm formulating a few plans to make it more spectacular very soon. I'll let you know when I get around to doing this.
At the moment our house seems to be full to the rafters with stuffed toys: Ross' Christmas presents. Will put some holiday pictures up very shortly.

See you in the New Year
Carlton

I've plumped for Norman Foster's design because its so bold. However I almost voted for Studio Libeskind's due to the fact that it looks more like a place of remembrance. What do you think? BBC NEWS | World | Americas | In pictures: World Trade Center plans

This kind of story holds a strange fascination for me. I like to feel small and insignificant in the grand scheme of things!

Not sure I like the vectorized supermodels populating this German site (Don't these break several copyright laws?). |____SUPERLOOPER ™ _____// However I do like the general energy of the site and theres a good fonts section to explore.

I built this site using Freeway, and now Softpress (the software developers) have entered my site in their gallery
Go take a look in the Freeway Gallery and scroll to bottom of the page. Et voila, there I am.

I'd almost forgotten about this story. I was in Tokyo at the time when the poisoning happened - it shocked the Japanese nation. It was really weird watching the news on TV, knowing something awful had happened but not being able to understand what the reporters were saying. Its taken quite a while for the prosecution to be completed.

The initial excitement about getting an ibook has suddenly crashed. Somehow I've totally screwed the system software and it looks like I'll have to fork out a small fortune to fix it. Any unwanted 2.5inch ibook hard drives (that work) will be gratefully received. Ta Carlton

I'm planning an overhaul of this blog to funk up the look of each entry and make it look like I’ve not cut and pasted several templates into one. Luckily I’m just about finished on two major projects so should be less busy. Hopefully I’ll be able to get more illustrations up in my portfolio plus a few personal pieces of work in my vision section.
I’ve bought an ibook and a digital camera so will be attempting to use these to create a richer site. I’ve already been taking quite a few shots of my son Ross (did I hear a groan at the back?). Apparently this morning he was experimenting with the letter ‘d’ so he will no doubt be going ‘da-da’ very shortly! BTW he’s only seven months old.

I can't believe this got a grant. Ananova - Sheep are sprayed with words to create poetry
She's mad, you can see it in her eyes.
Maybe I should paint some ants different colours and video them and enter the turner prize. It would be called "And This Is Art".
