A book of ideas that got away...
A book of my drawings of ideas for sculptures, machines and other free-range thoughts. Compiled from notebooks I have drawn in since 2000, recording ideas as they occur to me. Some of the ideas I did make, some I didn’t and some are fine as drawings only.
A miscellany of my mental meanderings.
What folk say:
'I love Nik’s brain, his imagination and his ideas. This book is full of joy, full of fun and full of lateral thinking which is something that I think the world will always benefit from having more of!” - Paul Smith
'Nice drawings!' - Jasia Reichardt
'This will blow your mind and make you smile at the same time!' - Dallas Collins, RWA
'Limpide sketches, tongue in cheek humour, earthy philosophy.' - William Holden
