And yeah, the prints that I sell were included and it was strangely emotional to see them on the wall in a gallery. Like validating and a little bit silly? Faintly ridiculous.

But that was why I'd been asked to go and have a little chat about things. It was hard to articulate just what this hobby meant to me, and why I was making it. I hope I didn't sound TOO silly. If you find yourself near Wolverhampton Art Gallery, please do go have a look. It deserves to be seen.

And now I'll be able to sell these prints as legitimate 'as shown in an actual gallery' art, which is pretty wild. Don't worry, I won't mark up the prices too much...

Advertising banner for Come As You Really Are, curated by Hetain Patel, currently showing in Wolverhampton Four of my prints on a wall, surrounded by other peoples creative work Another two prints on a wall, with more creative gubbins about. And the last four prints, thematically grouped with some 2007 movie toys that were not mine.
