Another thing with Wynn

My uncle Wynn has recently had a pamphlet of his poems published in the poetry magazine 'Acumen'. He asked me if I'd do the cover, and here it is. Buy a copy of 'Tiny Disturbances', they are only £3.50 on amazon and the poems are brilliant.

Face Paint

This is an idea, the start of something. I'm going to carry on with it whenever I come across some good old peely walls and maybe a story will emerge.
