Just a quick one... As you know, JR ² recently spent some time in the big 'M-Town' (Malton, Yorkshire) on a week long residency. I won't lie, it was pure madness.

It was also nice for the duo to TRY play guitar again, got to be said that ‘J’ is much better and ‘R’ needs a lot of practice. Anyway, they got to the studio, put their tunes on and the work started to happen. They’ll probably put a few posts up of what they made during their time there. How many tubes of oil paint can JR² use on one piece? As many as they want. Malton was the first time since March that the pair had been able to create work, and I think you’d be able to tell. Upwards of 70 drawings, 2 chairs, one large cabinet, one small cabinet, a guitar and a couple of ratche...
