So my weekend consisted of two solid days of working on projects and just kind of trying to clear the decks. I've been saying for months that I'm going to take a break from commission work to focus on personal projects, but I just can't seem to shake all these commitments! 
Anyway, it's always a good challenge, and I'm going to really appreciate that blank canvas when I finally get to it...

Also, I took a little break from drawing yesterday evening and we all headed down to the pub to watch our housemate Ben perform a little Sunday-arvo gig... I could tell you all about his beautiful music, and melodies that are powerful enough to lull the Humble-beast out of her destructive frenzies, but you could also probably just go and listen for yourself -- there's a couple of his tracks online here.

The vibes are good. 
I had an incredible conversation with a very talented lady last night -- which I will share here in the coming days -- it's nearly the weekend, and I have once again prioritised my batshit-crazy to-do list... I've got an eye on finishing some things so I can start some other things.
I plan on riding this weirdly-charged motivational high until I crash into the realisation that, once again, me and Humble have fallen asleep on couch watching CSI: Miami and wasted a whole day of potential project-finishing.

So I've been looking forward to sharing this lookbook from Mate Vintage for a whole bunch of reasons, probably starting with (a) the photos are sweet and summery and (b) the location is out-of-this-world and then (c) I contributed a couple of little bits-and-pieces to the t-shirt prints. 
Oh yeah, and there's always (d) cacti and light leaks. 
Also, the girls behind this label are so sweet, and do some great work through their Collabs with a Cause... as if you needed another reason to head over here and check out what they've got on offer... The shirts should be in soon, so keep an eye out!
