Too hot to (globe-)trot!

Posted on 17/07/2013 by

It’s just not cricket…

Posted on 12/07/2013 by

(…No, but is it tennis/some other identifiable category of sport…??) A quick Illustration Friday offering in response to the week’s topic, protest.  Something along tennis-themed lines, inspired by the warm, fuzzy after-glow the collective British public seems to be (still) … Continue reading →

A tentative return (again)…

Send her packing!

Posted on 03/05/2013 by

Running with (The) Raccoons

Posted on 17/03/2013 by

Unearthing new talent…?

Posted on 08/03/2013 by

Yet again, time has darted skittishly away from me this week, leaving me with the barest scrap of an opportunity to post something for Illustration Friday (and, as I’ll shamefacedly admit, moving me to dredge something up from the archives … Continue reading →

Tumbleweed…

Posted on 01/03/2013 by

A reserved robin for Illustration Friday…

Posted on 04/11/2012 by

Count Spectacularly Un-Dracula

Posted on 31/10/2012 by

A little topical sketch in honour of the ghosts, ghouls and other diaphanous (but not all, necessarily, malign…) beings traditionally abroad this evening.
