5.0 out of 5 stars Intriguing memoirs of the foremost graphic desiner today., 4 Aug 2004
Fantastic. An intriguing insight into the life and times of a top designer/painter, hailing from South Wales. Entertaining, educational and inspirational. A work of vital importance to Welsh heritage and compulsory reading for anyone studying graphic design or figurative painting today.

5.0 out of 5 stars A humorous view into the world of British art & design., 2 Jul 2004
In this book Gordon gives the reader a wonderfully humorous and touching personal account, not only of his own day to day professional experiences, as prehaps the leading Graphic Designer and Welsh Artist of our day, but also a great deal of culturally important insights into his own humble begginings in the little Welsh town or Pontardawe. This is a must read for anybody interessted in Welsh culture and/or graphic design and painting.
