My graphic novel Apt. 41 is now available to order here:

The book is 42 pages, perfect bound and printed on 130gsm munken polar, while the cover is 300gsm textured card. As this is self-published there will only be a limited amount available, while the first 20 sold will come with an original drawing. So excited to finally get this out there!

Now to get started on work for our next group exhibition which will be held in Auckland on Jan 31st, keep a look out for updates in the coming weeks.
