It's Onomatopaeia Monday™ folks!*

(*this is a made up day, any resemblance to any other day living or dead is purely coincidental, don't all start going out to buy Hallmark cards for the occasion)

Mr F***-up.

After a rather disastrous day partly brought on by my own inability to manage simple arithmetic I am NOT entertaining this gentleman today!

...and stay out!

pensive hipster...

...with some impressive hair-age going on.

A chihuaua, in a pink jumper? Aren't there organisations out there to stop this sort of thing?

(see also 'clothes for dogs')

Happy 100th birthday!

THIS is what you'll get if you live to be 100. Gawd bless her & all who sail in her (who said 'off with his head'?)

(From 'Cartoon Kid Strikes Back' by Jeremy Strong with scrawls provided by my good self)

God's chewing gum & other stories...

At this point on a Friday I like to ponder some of the bigger questions...

Cartoon Kid Strikes Back! OUT NOW!

'Cartoon Kid Strikes Back' the 3rd in the Cartoon Kid series written by Jeremy Strong & illustrated by myself is published today!
There's police elephants, hippo dinners,hamster family fun,cake chaos & much more!

Get out of your chair & take a walk to your local independent bookshop & buy one!

- or else be a lazy arse & you can get it on the interweb

Impending Hastings rumble (w/ added noise)

...there I am, busy drawing unsuitable sound effects when I'm suddenly distracted by determined teenage boys en route to an impending scrap in Hastings town centre - happily I haven't been personally involved in one of these for many years (as the great PaulMcCartney&MichaelJackson might've said - 'I'm a lover not a fighter')

Unwelcome beasties...

Sometimes the temptation to go out & affix a cat mask onto a dog is just too irresistable!

Does this make me a bad man?

Animated promo - 'Simple Life' by Sam Frank

I'm very excited about being able to put a link to my brand new animated promo that I just completed for Sam Frank's debut single Simple life - you can see it here http://vimeo.com/stevemay/sam-frank-simple-life

New animation

I've just finished a new animated short - you can see it here

Tea & fags (& more bowl cuts)

Some more sketchbook flotsam from my recent bowl cut explorations. Also seems to have a certain retro feel harking back to that '60s / '70s behind the scenes footage where everybody seems to be perma-smoking in the workplace. Even the tea lady usually has a pipe or similar

Bowl cuts we have loved...

Lest we forget - the role of the pudding basin in tonsorial culture - we salute you!

Dysnumria

This was drawn especially for a dear friend's brilliant party on 11/11/11 taking in numerology,the bible, the Pixies, Doctor Who & a few silly animals - very much like a slice of my life really...

Synchronised swimming & lycanthropy

Be honest, who hasn't always wanted to know what would happen if a synchronised swimmer was ravished by a werewolf? They missed a trick in the 2012 Olympics I tell ya!

Colonels & fish paste

Drawn in response to a 9 year old's poem about a Colonel that smells of fish paste(!)

spectacular beard

It's too rainy outside. On the bright side , I've just seen a spectacular beard!

Sausage dog of doom...

It's British Sausage Week apparently... there's a week for everything!

hungry...

this was my lunchtime...how about yours?

More bears & chairs
