It's about to get vile and culture warmish with One Nation, Libs and Labor trying to out racist each other. Please support your recent immigrant communities anyway you can.

'Island Lake, California' - an aerial embroidery commission from last September I haven't shared yet! The right hand side was a nightmare at times, very busy with textures and elements and odd shapes. I hope it came out effective though? I don't have much experience in rocky landscapes :)

Well that was a pretty fun week for me. We had the Warlock reveal/release on the 11th and then all new Saros gameplay at the PS State of Play on the 12th. I felt like Timothée Chalamet and shit. Who knows, maybe there’s another announcement coming real soon…
