Never Say Never to Obsession
It seems every decade or so I develop a new creative passion — er, obsession.
If you’ve been following my Instagram feed — or if you click over there now — the tipping point into obsession is glaringly obvious.

I’m really enjoying coming back to art and calligraphy in this new format, where everything is about *communication* over “art”, and it’s ultimately ephemeral.
