Update: Clutter City, online shop and new music!

Sorry for my lack of updates recently. Thought I'd just post a quick catch-up of things that has happened/is going to happen.

Clutter City

So, I took part in Clutter City at the Norwich Arts Centre on Saturday. I had a good time, and sold a few pieces of art to follow. I had a quick look at what other people were selling, to get a general idea of what products I should be making, and spoke to some people about their work and stalls. I've still got a fair amount of prints and such left over, which brings me on to my next comment...

Online Shop

Since I've got a nice selection of work to sell, and it's not the digital artwork sold through Society6 and Artflakes, I thought it would be a good idea to set up an online shop to sell some prints. I've not decided on the best way to do this yet (either a self hosted site, Etsy or such) but I'm getting the ball rolling with some photography and preliminary setup work. Once it's all in place, I'll be sure to post some information on it!

Music

And now, as I made the EP for Clutter City, it's time to start pushing my new musical project. It's called Laika Goes to Space and i've already written a few new songs for it. The first EP is out now, and you can find it at laikagoestospace.bandcamp.com. I've attached the artwork below, and it is avaliable as a digital download, or as a limited edition handmade cd. Go and have a listen and let me know what you think (and buy it if you'd like, of course!). I think this will be a bit more of a personal project, as I don't envision getting a band together to perform the material, but you never know what might happen.

Finally

So, that's about it for the moment. I'll start posting more pictures of some of the artwork I will be selling soon, as well as any other updates. I also need to get back into the regular Inspiration Round-up posts, which shall return shortly.
