zine mag issue 1

A MAGAZINE DEDICATED TO THE BEST THAT ILLUSTRATION HAS TO OFFER FROM THE NORTH EAST AND BEYOND.

‘DELICATE SPRING FLOWER’ JULIE SIMPSON

TO THE VERY FIRST ISSUE OF ZINE MAG, THE BRAIN CHILD OF AN ILLUSTRATION GRADUATE WHO WANTS TO HELP GET THE NEWEST, FRESHEST ILLUSTRATION SEEN IN ALL ITS GLORY RATHER THAN HAVE IT PROP UP AN ARTICLE. WITHIN THIS MINI MAG YOU COULD FIND A LOCAL ART HERO OR DISCOVER TALENT YOU NEVER KNEW EXISTED, YOU COULD SEE YOUR OWN WORK OR YOU COULD BE INSPIRED TO SUBMIT FOR NEXT ISSUE (PLEASE DO- WE LOVE TO SEE WHAT PEOPLE COME UP WITH). A FEW THANK YOUS BEFORE YOU HAVE A READ, FIRSTLY AND PROBABLY MOST IMPORTANTLY A HUGE THANK YOU TO THE CONTRIBUTORS, AT ONE POINT WE

WORRIED NO ONE WOULD SUBMIT OR CARE BUT WE’VE HAD SOME AMAZING WORK SENT IN AND FOR A FIRST ISSUE- THAT’S

AWESOME.

I’D LIKE TO THANK TOM BOYLE FOR BEING MY PARTNER IN CRIME ON THIS MAG AND VARIOUS OTHER

PROECTS. I’D LIKE TO THANK HANNAH ROBSON FOR BRAINSTORMING WITH ME WHEN I HAD

TOO MANY IDEAS IN MY HEAD. ANOTHER BIG THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO KINDLY PUT UP OUR POSTERS

(INCLUDING PLUGGED INN, HOT RATS RECORDS, TRAVELLING MAN NEWCASTLE, SUNDERLAND ART SHOP,...) AND WHO’VE RE-POSTED OUR FACEBOOK LINKS ETC, HELPING TO PROMOTE THE MAG AS MUCH

AS POSSIBLE. THANKS TO SHIRLEY WHEELER AT SUNDERLAND UNI WHO’S ALSO

BEEN A BIG HELP OVER THE YEARS. LAST BUT NOT LEAST, THANK YOU FOR PICKING UP THE MAG AND HAVING A FLICK THROUGH, REALLY HOPE YOU ENJOY IT!
