Find the Gap on Wix.com

I’ve been playing with Flash on the excellent free site builder at www.wix.com. Flash is renowned for being bloated, cumbersome and incompatible and I must admit it generally is, but visually and playfully it really is the way the web should be: just plain slick.

Here is a Flash website made in wix, to a house a short illustrated narrative I recently drew.

More drawings and more thanks

Firstly a big thanks to everyone who came along to my exhibition in Godt Brød and who gave me feedback.

As those pictures and drawings come down, I’ve put up 12 new line drawings up on flickr. The drawings date from the end of summer to yesterday evening and the themes are somewhat disparate rannging from Kissing to Kerouac to Cancer Research to Leonard Cohen to Ikea and The Dance. You can also browse my pics using this very nice flash gallery by airtightinteractive.
