Michael Jackson 1958-2009 R.I.P
He was an inspiration to me as a child. Its crazy how one minute you know a person and the next their gone. Please use this moment to appreciate everyone you know and love. I remember trying to moonwalk but life moves on steadily.

stateofthearts.co.uk go now!!
Hi Guys/Followers and General Blog Stumblers,
As a designer it is always pleasing to see growth within another designer. My (Ken Hughes, BA) brother has been working on his website (stateofthearts.co.uk) for a while but now it is coming to fruition. Although still under construction I can see the beauty and simplicity within the design. Keep checking back and save it to your favourites you will not be let down.

Hot ice, Sweaty Eskimo
Ive been meaning to post about my friend Tahg who runs his own illustrative studio
'Sweaty Eskimo'. I almost got on the collabo tip with him for my 'Eclectic Perspective'
exhibition. I especially love the toilet seat clock conversion with Pyrography (you should research that like I did lol)
He has a true original style and he inspired my to get on with my own illustrations after
seeing his work at an exhibition in Birmingham.
Peep his website sweatyeskimo.co.uk

Where Are You Yeezy?
Hello fellow Yeezers,
So I camped out for the Air Yeezy's don't call me crazy call me dedicated. I got down there Thursday and although I was reluctant to come at first I was thankful in the end. Arif convinced me to come but it was great. I felt like I was at the core of following my goals and being myself. It was definately worth doing this. I met new people and made lots of friends.
Thursdeezy
It was the starting leg of the race. I worried about que numbers and all sorts but it was a pretty much relaxing day as I knew we all still had a day ahead of us. I took the opportunity to get to know a few cool people. There enough Bape here for us to look like the new Bape store London lol.
Thurdeezy Night
Thursday was cold brrrrr....All I had was the cold pavement and wavering drunkards I stayed up talking til 4am. But everything was sharp I go to try on the infamous 'Beats By Dre' and man was I loving them. The sound better than my Carillon AM-05 speakers and they're a beast *note* get a pair *note*. Charles ( The guy in the black mac coat) was focused but it was cool I was definetely feeling Geoffrey's blue Ray Bans but who couldn't. At this time of night it just got a bit funny not the smartest thing to be sleeping on the streets on a Thursday night.

5// David Yap
Characters Frideezy
Micheal was Baped out head-to-toe 'Zock On' lmao he was a cool guy very level headed. Lemara was the wearing the trousers and she handled it well with the list and all I think she should work for size it might work out for her well. Geoffrey held it down with the swagger talk this dude had everything lol. Adam had some serious dedication his leg was broken and he still camped for days, Kanye you got some serious fans here. Charles seem focused ,a cool guy too. Mr stylistic definately had style. Shout out to anyone that camped I can remember Jessica Khor, Charles Agnew, Michael Antolin, Michael Ramirez, Adam Samir, Mr Stylistik, Reeco Fernandez, Arif Malik, Bola, Lemara Lindsay, Patrick Odai, Shaheed Lalji, David Yap and much more.

2// Grey 2nd edition
3// Me with the Ray-Bans deep trust me
Saturdeezy
At this point I was dripping with excitement lmao (sounds wrong doesnt it). Well actually I was dripping with rain and Patrick Odai from Tropical TV stole my umbrella lol. But It was only a matter of hours before I had the Nike Air Yeezy in my grasp. It drizzled at this point my phone battery cut out @"£@!!!&*.
Celebration *Size 9 Number 25 ( I should get a tattoo that read '25' hmmm)
They're in my hands they smell like a high end fashion fragrance, they feel woman-esque they glow in the dark I've wore them once and my feet are on cloud 9 (size 9 cloud 9 get it....nevermind). It feels good to have set a goal for myself and have achieved it follow your dreams and more importantly your heart and mind. Look at me the swagger is on high end. Its great to own such a well crafted shoe.
Remember 'Take it Yeezy'

Today I visited the Electric Blue Gallery on middlesex street. Jasper Goodall's work is the first to be exhibited, I personally thought it was great. Its about empowering women and experimenting with erotica and sexuality, Great.

A Frog I tell You!!
I saw a frog! I know it sounds weird but it was so unexpected and somehow inspiring to see such a tyrant lol. Where I live we don't get a lot of frogs, but this one was massive.
My Exhibition @ LCC
My exhibition at LCC went great, I only hope that people are inspired and take away the colours and freedom that went into each canvas. Look out for more exhibitions like this.
