Lovely to catch up this weekend with the Girls from , they gave a wonderfully fun and interesting talk in the morning which set us all up for a lovely day of talks and Photobooks.

It was good to catch up and discuss the book we’ve all been working on of late and to see the home made makkete which was on show - The pre-order for the self published book is live now….

Making pigment proofs in Bristol then shipping to Paris over the past few months has been a useful process, but there’s nothing like a proper face-to-face where we can discuss any issues and challenges! πŸ€™πŸ½

Look forward to finishing the proofs and moving into the CMYK pre -press stage to get it closer to realityπŸ“š

Lovely to be engaged with Ashutosh / and his natal chart reimagined as a scroll over these past few weeks. There were several aspects we had to consider and plan for but We finally got together in the studio yesterday to create 3 beautiful 4.25m long pieces of work on paper which was challenging yet extremely rewarding!!

Also he became an Uncle at the time which made the connection even richer ❀️

Thank you for the trust🌱

A special client came to me with a very unique 1.76m long Chromogenic print to digitize, specially created by in 1979 as a customised piece for the Japanese National Railways. πŸš†

We shot this in the studio under lights as 8 separate digital captures and seamlessly stitched it together which resulted in a 333 x 12 cm 16 bit Tiff. I think you'll agree it's quite awesome and nearly as long as me!

The 489 series (489η³»), was a limited express electric multiple unit (EMU) train type introduced in March 1972 by Japanese National Railways (JNR) in Japan, and later operated by East Japan Railway Company (JR East) and West Japan Railway Company (JR-West) until 2012.

The 489 series trains were developed from the earlier 485 series specially for use on the Hakusan and Asama limited express services operating over the steeply graded Usui Pass.

We're been theorising as to how this was created with various ideas coming up....anyone with any thoughts?
