Finished my collage screenprint on vintage bible studies poster.

Get Thee Behind Me, Satan. 2025. 1/1.

A vintage painting of Jesus with new screenprints on the left and right hand side. One side is a collage of devil's and nasty little creatures, the other side is angelic creatures including some dancing cats.

We had a reverse engineered PS2 without a case. You had to put a massive blob of blu tack on it to stop the disc flying across the room. It would occasionally trip the electrics in the office, or give nasty shocks
