Did She Have Dreams? Nolan's Insomnia (2002) in Five Women
It’s true that storytelling can be a form of manipulation. But it can also offer the best means of illuminating the truth.

Little website update! Freshening up that news roll with some not-quite-so-old-art. joribolton.com #illustration
Screenshot of joribolton.com, showing illustration by Jori Bolton, with thumbnails of illustrations on the left and featured recent illustrations on the right along with descriptions of the artwork. Top right shows four spot illustrations of people with giant props involved the manufacture of denim, which were drawn for Luca Faloni, and beneath that is an illustration of Bob Iger straining under the weight of a massive Mickey Mouse head, which was drawn for The Hollywood Reporter.

I'm thrilled to share @marcaspinall.bsky.social's incredible cover art for my book, SEX FOR DINNER, DEATH FOR BREAKFAST!! The full hardcover wraparound is just brilliant. Action! Seduction! Danger! Marc, I am so very grateful. Watch for this one, coming soon. #jamesbond #coverreveal #booksky

Haha! Hey I’m glad such a crop could elicit such a reaction - gives me confidence about the whole piece :-D I’m being very selective with the amount of detail in the piece therefore it’s got to be ‘right’

Haha! Yeah there’s no posting crotch shots without crotch jokes :-p thank you though, was a tricky bunch of shapes

Yeah, tbf you’re right. I think Treapleton manages to balance quirky and straight so well to Wes’ style that it’s easy to overlook her for Cera’s more dialled up, scene stealing stuff. And yes, ditto! I feel he drew on what we saw of him in Scott Pilgrim and Youth in Revolt

I enjoyed! Cera standout??

Marc Aspinall @marcaspinall.bsky.social · 24/05/2025
Yeah, I’m hardly on either now and kind of have to remind myself to post stuff. Liked the film! Very funny, silly - definitely give it a go; I’ll be trying to go again!

Marc Aspinall @marcaspinall.bsky.social · 23/05/2025
Yeahsss, I kinda share some of that nostalgic romanticism for that turn of the century, too so it really scratches an itch. I need to schedule a rewatch!

Marc Aspinall @marcaspinall.bsky.social · 23/05/2025
Oh fab! Glad to hear! I shall follow up soon!

It’s loosely based on the subway in Seoul, so I guess it’s quite similar in that respect. And thank you, McGinnis is a huge inspiration, so to be loosely compared is a huge compliment. My intention was for a lomo/ig filter with the colours - crunched values, and raised blacks. Kinda retro but new

Marc Aspinall @marcaspinall.bsky.social · 23/05/2025
Yep this is my feelings too, and I love the romance of all that and despite the small time they share on screen, there’s a palpable chemistry between Wildon and Seydoux that gets me every time 🥹

Marc Aspinall @marcaspinall.bsky.social · 23/05/2025
I’ll let you know how it is! (I might lie just to encourage you to go hahah) but tbh I have no clue what it’s about; the marketing offers little and I’ve avoided the trailer - very much up for the surprise :-)

Yesss to all of that. Also ❤️ for Midnight in Paris; a shoddily made film that I really love lol

After loving the pieces of this work that were posted the final is gorgeous (& makes me wistful for a JR station I commuted through). The color flits between accurate and classic advertising so nicely. TLDR: One day I will make f-you money and politely beg a piece from @marcaspinall.bsky.social #art
