A small pause

I am taking a break from the real world so posts will be thin / non-existent over the next few weeks. Enjoy your summer, and see you on the other side with lots of fresh inspiration. Thanks for watching.

Fiona Banner – Harrier and Jaguar

I came across the above image earlier today, which made me think wow, as good reason as any to post I figure. Not sure whether it is the Harrier or the Jaguar, either way they are both part of an exhibition by Fiona Banner at Tate Britain.

Nice.
