Sketchy LI

….I was approached to contribute to a contemporary comic…

…fuck…it’s been an awfully long time since I’ve drawn sequentially and wasn’t quite sure I still had that skill set…

…dug out an old idea from 5 years ago and gave it a test drive…

…then they started talking about checking drafts and I got a confidence wobble and backed away quite quickly…

…seems things have got a lot more regimented since I was publishing…

…but hey, I’ve this plotted in case someone is less edity and I get over my own lack of confidence!….

And When Im Not Stressing Out About Closing The Shop

…and re-decorating…

…and gardening…

…and Trade-me…

…and remembering to keep up the personal hygiene…

…and wondering where Dee is with my car…

Where Was I

…oh, that’s right…7 years ago I was just arriving back from the UK with a sketch book full of story ideas that I thought I should commit to paper…

…when, suddenly, I was distracted by a whole bunch of other ideas that just had to be drawn first….

…and then….

…the original from 2009….

More From My Old School Books

…the writing not the pictures….

….just the facts.

My Old Mum

….gave me my old school books…that she’d been “saving”….

….good on ya’ Mum.

It’s How You Hold The Stick

…as much as what the stick sticks into.

The Last One

…in 1998 I published my last paper comic…

…and apart from the cover of the very unpublished “Dud #3” it is the last piece of cover art I’m likely to do…

…(that’ll give me more time to draw actual cartoons!).
