If you missed it in the week, I wrote at (extreme*) length about my memories of 2015 to 2020 and I want to get it out there so I’m posting again, sorry. It’s vulnerable and stuff. I wanted to talk about the things people don’t talk about re: trying to be in the art world post-university, the madness of trying to be noticed all the time. Read at bexilsley.com 🩷 (*don’t say you weren’t warned)
I’m blown away by the response to my reflective post about Blobshop and 2014 Instagram yesterday. Thank you so much to everyone who read, and to those who commented and messaged me. It’s meant a lot to me.
I’ve also written something else recently - about my enduring love for @weareshampoo - 90s pop punk princesses of Plumstead (and there’s a Miley connection here too!). You can read it in @lipstickyfronts new fanzine, available now on Etsy (Shop: scheissekunst)

Once upon a time, I made neon goo blobs in my art school studio and I shipped them around the world for £25 each. Then Miley Cyrus followed me and things got complicated.
A decade later, I’ve decided to write the story down. A little micro-era of instagram art, fan culture and student struggles, remembered in my own words.
The beautiful @mewmincat poses alongside the custom orange blob I made for my good friends @emmietwee and @matthewmcnulty89 🧡 Thanks for controlling the urge to push it off the stairs, Mew.
Commissions are always open by DM. My next drop will be a series of opaque, matte blobs in paintbox fluoro colours, but if you’ve got a specific colour and finish you’d like to see, let’s talk!
I can make swirly or tie-dye style versions with jesmonite. Glitter, metallic and even flocked finishes are possible as well.

Here’s a cute little fluorescent pink drippy blob I made as a custom order for @echodeltamoon a little while back. I’m always open to custom orders and commissions if you have something in mind.
I have drops planned for fluorescent colours, chalky opaque paintbox shades and swirly marbled editions made from jesmonite, plus glitter, metallics and even flocked blobs on the horizon, but if you can’t wait for me, slide into my DMs with your ideas and let me see what I can do.
