Meat fiver
Further to the #fivepoundnote-gate scandal (as nobody has called it yet) on other (made up) planets the currency is made from pure MEAT!

Muppet horror dream!
My dream last night involved myself (in puppet form) & a muppet with no eyes, attempting to avoid capture from a malevolent Bert & Ernie from Sesame Street. Odd, & strangely scary
(answers on a postcard to the usual address...)

Brian Blessed with wings, playing the drums!
I drew this while frothing at the mouth in response to ANOTHER depressing news article about residential property developers attempting to close down venues / clubs etc. which have operated for years due to noise, this time affecting the Curzon cinema in Mayfair.
My radical plan is next time property developers build flats next to long established clubs / cinemas & complain about noise, I propose crowdfunding & installing a continuous hologram of Brian Blessed with wings playing a f*** off drum kit!

Some sketches from Festival Number 6
A few sketches from Festival Number 6 including a man who seems to have ELO's stylist from 1978 & the security man with the BEST expression ever!

Collective nouns...
The collective noun for cats is a 'clump' surely...?*
*Ok, ok, the correct term is a 'clowder', happy now?

Fat Batman With Balloons
After a rather bleak confusing week I thought I'd draw a fat Batman with some balloons to cheer you all up!

Monster on budget shopping trip
In between doing monster-y things it's *always* good to grab a bargain, maybe a talking ice cream in this case?
You don't believe in such a thing?
You cynic, you!

Colectivo cover art
I drew this recently for the cover of a new literary magazine called Colectivo.
The image takes a little bit of artistic licence from several experiences of shared 'bush taxi' journeys a friend of mine & I experienced while traveling around in Gambia, Senegal & Mauritania a few years ago. Whilst travelling around West Africa on the cheap one becomes more & more aware of the myriad workings of what I came to call 'Bush Taxi Top Trumps'
Here's a couple of the original sketches.
For more exhaustive & often far better written & funny musings on 'different' travel experiences I heartily recommend my friend Graham Askey's Inside Other Places blog
