“I’m obsessed with ideas and fondue.”

Please tell us a little about something you are currently working on/obsessed with: I’m obsessed with everything – type, music and image. I love trying to provoke and evoke people through images and statements. I’m obsessed with ideas and fondue.

What are the main obstacles to working creatively that you face?: Coming up with the best solution! Writers block!

What do you do to come up with new ideas or when you are having
trouble being creative? I usually go for a walk or play some loud music … this usually helps me overcome writers block. Other than that, I’ll try and get on with another project and keep the idea ticking over. Usually Blood, Sweat & Tears will help overcome creative blocks!

What are some books/websites/bands/etc that you recommend?: My all time favourite bands are The Stone Roses and the Charlatans. I visit QBN.com to keep up to date with current design and events.

What is the future of the T-shirt? (Does it have one?) Why?: T-shirts are the future! They are great canvases for expressionism, art and communication.
