I was listening to the FA Cup commentary and the commentator said something along the lines of “ Is it me or has the specialness upped for this final”. Nah mate it’s just you. Last year Wembley shook and it was beautiful.

Reprising a 1st year Complimentary Studies assignment from my degree. I was in the fine art department doing ‘art and text’. I used witty and cool quotes from jazz musicians. I was influenced and adapted the style of graphic designer Reid Miles and his work for the Blue Note record company.
Box lid for Blue Quote cardsLid removed revealing the first card. It says “The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, along plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free and good men die like dogs. There is also a negative side. Hunter S Thompson”10 of the cards from the set. Similar to the work of Reid Miles.The remaining 10 cards, also in the style of Reid Miles
