Furniture and Equipment Clearance
In the next week or so, I will be saying farewell to the Custard Factory, which has been the home for my cartoon studio for the last four years (of which more in a future post). Due to my new studio space being somewhat smaller I am looking to dispose of some of my old office furniture and equipment, some of which I’ve had for many years, but, sadly now no longer have use for.
Up for grabs:
- A0-sized drawing board
- draftsman’s chair
- Grant enlarger (a lovely bit of old-school design kit)
- leather Chesterfield sofa [SOLD]
- two large desks
- office chair
- filing cabinet
- electric radiator
- fridge [SOLD]
Please click on the photographs below for more detailed descriptions of all the items. All offers considered. The only provisio being that you have to collect it by the end of January, as that’s when I will be moving out.
I should be in the studio at various times over the course of the next week, please contact for more details or if you’d like to view any of the items.
Contact me at alex.hughes@alexhughescartoons.co.uk or by phone at 0121 683 0237
Update:
The sofa has been claimed, and I’ve had enquiries about the desks, filing cabinet, and draftsman’s chair. The drawing board, Grant enlarger, office chair, fridge and radiator very much still available.
Another update:
Fridge has now also been sold. Only two days left!
Happy Birthday, Dr Sketchy
It’s time to don party hats, as Dr Sketchy’s Birmingham is celebrating it’s 1st birthday! As regular readers of this blog will know by now, Dr Sketchy’s Anti-Art School is a movement that combines burlesque cabaret and life-drawing that started in New York by comic artist Molly Crabapple in 2005.
Email Difficulties
I’ve just discovered that emails have not been coming through to me from the contact forms here on my website, due to a technical hitch. So, if you’ve recently tried to get in touch with me to commission a caricature or book me for an event, please drop me a line or use the (now fixed) contact forms below:
If you have tried to contact me and were wondering why I’d not responded, please accept my most sincere apologies for not getting back to you sooner.
Eggheads beaten!
As I’m in not doubt you’re now aware, the Cartoonists team, captained by yours truly swept to victory in our recent TV quiz bout, smashing the Eggheads with what Kevin Ashman described as “the most comprehensive defeat we’ve ever had”!
I’ve written a full report over at the Professional Cartoonists’ Organisation’s blog Bloghorn, and you can see the episode in question on the BBC iPlayer here. Read the full post
Eggheads reminder…
As mentioned previously I recently (er, back in January) recorded an episode of the TV quiz Eggheads. Well, tonight’s the night! Tune in at 6pm on BBC2 tonight to see me captain the Cartoonists team of Robert Duncan, Graham Fowell, Royston Robertson and Martin Rowson to victory/defeat*
