NICK BLINKO -

Nearly 40 years ago, Nick regularly drew in the popular Daler A6 sketchbooks, with a handy perforation to remove single sheets. Far from being mere sketchbooks they contain so much more than simple drafts, there are countless fully realised artworks in here, one of the books is a skull/skeleton themed booklet, another one contains drawings which are easily among the most detailed, disturbing and fascinating work Nick has created, rumour has it that Coil's John Balance at one point even tried to pinch one of these easily-pocketed books.
