Awkward First Meetings - #QuickDraw submission

Each Thursday at 7pm OFF LIFE magazine posts up a topic on Twitter using the hashtag #Quickdraw - the idea being that illustrators and comic book artists produce and post up an illustration by 8pm, ie within the hour. 

Yesterday evening the theme was "Awkward First Meetings" and I submitted the drawing above.

i-SPY Apocalypse - 7 mundane signs of the end-of-days

We all know about the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, right? Famine, War, Pestilence and Death. Well here are seven slightly more mundane signs of the impending end of days. How many have you seen?

Festival Nightmare - #QuickDraw submission

Each Thursday at 7pm OFF LIFE magazine posts up a topic on Twitter using the hashtag #Quickdraw - the idea being that illustrators and comic book artists produce and post up an illustration by 8pm, ie within the hour. 

I'm not particularly fast at illustrating, often drawing an image two or three times before I'm satisfied with it, plus I'm often busy at that time on a Thursday. But last week I found the time to have a go and the picture above is my submission on the theme of Festival Nightmare.

New screenprint - Cassette Hounds

So, here's my new limited edition 3 colour screenprint - Cassette Hounds.

Remember cassette tapes? Of course you do. Remember how they needed walking twice a day? Probably not, everyone conveniently forgets that detail. This little baby comes in two bright colourways and is a very limited edition of 6 prints in each. It's the first completely new screenprint I've done in a while, as I spent a lot of last year reprinting the open editions of my "No Underground. Get Over It" series.

For those interested in the technicals, it measures a handy 30x40cm, is printed on lovely 300gsm Fabriano 5 Liscia paper. Each print is signed and is available to buy from my little old online shop.

Where does punctuation come from? - A comic strip

This is the third of the one-page comic strips I recently drew up, and probably my favourite as it involved more writing that the others. I think this may have potential for a series, we'll see but I certainly plan to do a few more like this. Click on the image to view it larger and actually read what it says!

Late Night Visitor - A comic strip

The second of three one-pager comic strips I recently created. I'm pleased with the simplicity and colours in this one, and the premise is simple but nicely surreal I think. Click the image to view larger, natch.

The Proposal - A comic strip

The first of three comic strips I recently created and submitted to OFF LIFE comic for inclusion in their issue #7. This was my first attempt at storytelling/sequential/narrative imagery for a very long time. I feel it just about works, though it rather resembles a series of animation stills rather than actually flowing as a story. Not too shabby a start though. Click on the image to view it larger.
