Johnny Danger - DIY Spy

Having thoroughly enjoyed worked with author (& all round good egg) Peter Millet on his Boy Zero series for Faber & Faber a few years back I recently illustrated the cover for his latest book 'Johnny Danger - DIY Spy' published by Penguin.

 It's billed as 'A hilarious, action-packed tale featuring a pair of evil number twos, a madman, exploding bogey bombs, discount ninjas and a man-eating piranha called Bob.' - what's NOT to like?

It's only available in Australia at the moment but hopefully a UK deal will follow - otherwise you'll just have to buy this edition & read it upside down in the UK.

Here's a couple of the original preliminary character sketches (we lost the Blofeld cat & the water pistol & gained a banana in the process!)

Monster facts #14

That knocking sound in the wardrobe? That'll be the monster hiding in there with his carrier bag full of wire coat hangers (you always wondered where they came from huh?)

More Monster Facts™? Hot foot it over to HERE!

Cats & pizza

With reference to my previous post, don't feed your cat pizza kids!

Pizza time

NB This is an humorous picture for the purpose of amusement. Please refrain from feeding pizza to your pets.

Behold, the donut truck!

I was heartened to see a group of NYC cops all eating donuts on my first & only visit to Staten Island many years ago thus fulfilling a cliché for me. The truck was not being driven by a cat much to my consternation - this is called artistic licence*

*also known as 'fibbing a bit'

Cats, trumpets, elephants & more...


These new prints were designed & drawn specifically for a private commission recently - lots of fun to draw & incorporate certain specific references in the artwork to personalise them.
They also happen to have some of my favourite things in them, elephants, cats, penguins, balloons & pizza (in no particular order)

World Cat Day - official merchandise

Yes, it's World Cat Day (apparently) so why not purchase an official* World Cat Day Collar of Shame™?

(* this is a rather loose definition of 'official' - may contain lies)

cat trumpet

The man in the Apple Store asked me what I was drawing.

I explained it was Tuesday morning so naturally I was drawing a cat playing a trumpet.

That seemed to satisfy everyone. : )

Astronauts!

This is what space ACTUALLY looks like kids! (yes, & of course the moon's made of cheese dummy!)

Cat's bum!

Booze, cats, bum references, what else do you need on a Monday morning?

Unwanted gifts (one that got away)

I think I'd sneakily like one of these to be truthful (although the 'Breville home stigmata toaster'™ might be a little beyond the pale...)

Advent of unwanted gifts # 5

Offensive confectionery.

(shhhh...don't shoot me but I always liked coffee creams etc. - the ones everyone hates!)
