Here. Hair. Here.


I've been drawing big hair again. Will I ever tire of drawing hair? I think not. I'm holding out for that lucrative Herbal Essences contract.

The Grimble Twins


Aw, I used to love it when these guys would appear on Top of the Pops! Eddie (on the right) was such a joker! I can't believe he tried to eat Gary Davies during the Radio One Roadshow! Good job Jakki Brambles was there to distract him. For an extra 10 points - what was the name of the Grimble Twins first UK top 10 single?

UPDATE - The winner of the extra 10 points is Laurie Pink who correctly answered "Tickly Ribs!". Well done, Laurie! A satin Grimble Twins tour jacket stained in the blood of Gary Davies is on it's way to you now!

Zombies!


Here's a recent Insurance Times commission for an article about claimants being given new rights to pursue the insurers of insolvent businesses. In other words, previously dead claims being brought back to life - Zombie insurance!! As you can imagine this was a joy to do. I've even managed a Hitchcock-style cameo - I'm on the left with a pencil sticking out of my head next to Louise with a pin lodged in her eyeball (a REAL injury!). Click on the image to get a better view of the carnage. Original pencils below for, you know, comparison an' that.

Malibu


The nice people at Malibu asked me to decorate one of their new limited edition "blank" bottles as part of their current "Malibu By U" campaign. Here's my contribution.

Selfridges Press Day Sketches


I spent Thursday at Selfridges, London, with Louise (under her guise as Felt Mistress) promoting the range of "couture creatures" that will be sold in their concept store, The Wonder Room, from the Autumn (all very exciting!). I was there to draw members of the press as Felt Mistress characters. In total I drew 37 portraits here's a few of my favourites.
