Pick Me Up 2011

the sun was shining in London today and i had an ace afternoon at Pick Me Up with my good friend Simon. lots of eye candy to be enjoyed and it was nice to meet Jay, Sam from Nobrow press and Jez in person :)
i'll let the photos do the talk but if you are in London do check it out. awesome stuff... most of the work exhibited is indeed very inspiring and i even got myself a new husband (pics 9 & 17) created by the super talented Jay Cover from Nous Vous collective. i named him Diego, he looks quite happy in his new home :) and no, husband no1 is not jealous (yet)...
+ notice that little old lady (pic 11) buying Nobrow books... how ace is that? for a split second i saw myself in the future. * sigh... wonderful
