If there were to be a Rocky movie equivalent for a young man making a foray into fashion, I would cast Roberto Cavalli as 'Mickey' and I would have him say at this point, 'Get up Nick. Get Up! Because Roberto loves you!"
Sometimes the process wears you down. You may wonder what all these posts on me hand-painting pocket squares are about. Mostly I am experimenting so I can try to find a way to make a commercially viable process for our studio to make limited edition prints for local Australian artists to make available a simplified artwork of their design to be turned into a pocket square. At the same time, I was hoping to pick up a hobby for the weekend. Unfortunately with this art form there are a huge number of avenues one can take to achieve a varying result of the same thing. We must therefore soldier on. In the process of doing today's square I found out about one last final technique which I am going to employ which, apparently, stops dye from spreading and makes it paint on rather similarly to acrylic and it's not thickener....
