Being British illustrations - Woman's Weekly
Illustrations to accompany comedian Hugh Dennis' article for Woman's Weekly on Being British including inability to choose correct outfits for weather, obsessions with gardens, pets & not turning your back on the Queen.
(shamefacedly I hadn't realised Woman's Weekly still existed & was immediately reminded of the line 'beat me on the bottom with my Woman's Weekly' from a song by Victoria Wood!)

Economist June 2013
Illustration for The Economist international section on 'Shell companies' - untraceable companies which exist on paper only and are the vehicle of choice for money launderers, bribe givers and takers, tax evaders and financiers of terrorism.
'Mr Cameron has emphasised the importance of “breaking through the walls of corporate secrecy”.'
(& I love a bit of chiarascuro on a Friday too! : )

about the technical challenges of effective communications under the

i.e. it's difficult to update your Facebook status if you don't want the enemy finding out about your sandwich of choice etc.

(*yes pedants, I'm sure it can't be an actual trilby - ence the 'esque' ; )

Monkey triangle ensemble
Monkey triangle ensemble - every seaside town should have one!
I have a photo of myself as a sulky 2 year old posing with my dad & a rather wretched monkey in a cardigan from the early '70s - just saying, I don't really condone animals in clothes (unless it's REALLY funny!)
