Beth (Face 249)

Prints now available

You have lovingly restored that original period fireplace and now you probably need something to hang above it (or burn inside it) and what could be better than a print of somebody you will never meet?

Archival Digital prints of all of the faces are now available here.

Jason (Face 248)

Angela (Face 247)

Christopher (Face 246)

Phoebe (Face 245)

Beverly (Face 244)

Dan & Sarah (Faces 242 & 243)

Simon (Face 241)

Simon is the kind of guy who likes to have a miniature folk band playing out on his head. They mainly play instrumentals but if forced to come up with lyrics they might go something like this: SORRY, NO MORE BADGES LEFT PEOPLE

Badges

The mystery bag of badges is now just a bag full of empty mystery.

It also turns out that I hadn't really thought through the idea of people just sending a stamped addressed envelope and me filling it with badges and putting it back in the post. It's definitely not that simple. Especially if you're trying it from abroad.

Anyone not from the UK who emailed about the badges should save yourselves the hassle - just send me your address and I'll sort out the rest.

Ai + 1 (Faces 239 & 240)

Musical facial hair. Surely this will catch on.

Aaron (Face 238)

Free Badges

I've found a long-forgotten bag of pin badges hiding away in my room. They feature pretty random drawings ranging from Y-fronts to pocket calculators and even a few which are graced with the glorious face of Tom Selleck. Anyone who would like to get hold of a handful of these can send me a Stamped Addressed Envelope and I'll get them straight in the post to you.

send me an email to the usual address if you're interested. First come, first served.

To continue our musical odyssey.

Thought I might as well continue with the music theme we've got going on here.

Theme From Your Face

Last week I was blissfully unaware of one of the major shortcomings of this blog. I don't think I could have pinned down the exact nature of what we were missing here even if they had let me borrow Stephen Hawking's chair for a few weeks to sit and mull it over.

Alas, thanks to Steve (Face 233), the problem has been solved before I even had time to worry about it. This one has slipped by with no need try to bury it deep in my subconscious and let it fester and develop into another dangerous personality disorder. I think we all have a lot to be thankful to Steve for in that regard so without rambling any further I am stupendously pleased to be able to present to you.. Theme From Your Face...

Steve (Face 233)

Steve's photo crash landed into my inbox yesterday and attached was a note offering to write me a song in exchange for drawing his particular arrangement of nose, mouth, eyes, etc.

Well Steve, I've kept up my side of the bargain, I beieve it's now your turn.

Nora (Face 228)

ok people, we're back in business. firstly I'd like to propose that we all move to Japan if they have room for us. In the meantime (I know you all need a moment to pack your bags and tie up loose ends, say a final goodbye to the family etc.) let's carry on where we left off. Hopefully I can complete the remaining portraits for the first tea towel in the very near future and can finally get them printed.

Juan Carlos (Face 227)

This rather handsome face is going to be the last for a little while as I'm going to be leaving for Japan tomorrow. I'm away for 3 weeks so normal service will resume at the beginning of June. Please check back then or make sure to subscribe to the rss feed.

I have too many emails to reply to them all right now so I'll answer some of the most popular questions here.

- I'm a real person whatever that means.
