Just had a read through the office's copy of Creative Review and spotted thatWavehave been commissioned to whip up some new posters aimed at trying to deter the amount of dog poo being deposited on the streets. This reminds me of an incident. When I was walking back home a woman had come out of her house and was complaining energetically to anyone who would listen about a bit of dog crap outside her house. To highlight this, she then for some bizarre reason covered the offending canine by-product in bread crumbs. As the area is populated with seagulls permanently on guard on the roof tops, they were soon casting a beady eye on this breadcrumbed coated delicacy, and noisily began circling in on their quarry. At that minute, a dog walker was miffed when their dog made a beeline for this apparently appetising looking bit of street food. Thankfully a decent neighbour intervened and stopped the ongoing chaos by calmly removing said offending item wrapping it in paper and depositing it in the local dog poo bin. Let that be a lesson to you if you ever allow your dog to foul on the streets o' Hastings town - caution: women armed with breadcrumbs are lurking in the doorways.
Little Carthorse is sometimes in Greenwich, London and sometimes in Oslo, Norway. On odd occasions can be spotted wandering with intent around Old Town, Hastings. The Carthorse got a design degree at London College of Printing; worked at a few publishing houses as designer/illustrator, at a museum or three, the Arts Council Visual Arts Dept based in Westminster, and once upon a time at a film company.
