These are fantasy notebook covers.
The text is all filched from my notebooks, appointments, colour specs etc. I loved Basquiat’s early Warhol collaborations. But what did Andy think when he saw a nice logo he’d drawn covered in hip street language? “Er, very nice…you’ve actually drawn over everything… But. That’s. Fine.” They look nice as T-shirts as well. What’s the point of wearing a T-shirt everybody understands?
Olympic Whistle I was scribbling at home and watching an old film of the Titanic’s sister ship entering New York harbour. Tugs and little craft were beeping and hooting like excited puppies. The liner answered with a blast that should have flattened Manhattan. Totally badass. The captain’s most satisfying job of the voyage.
