Crescendo

Well, it’s been a minute. The last ten months are a bit of a blur, but great things are happening – and although delayed, the biggest-and-best-yet graphic novel of my life’s work is getting closer to being out in the world. And oh boy, I’m excited. In my last update I talked about finishing comic …

Wait for it

So, it’s somehow mid-August already. Yet again, time flies. I keep coming back in my mind to that quote in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off: “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” Moving forward I need to find a better split. Work smarter, not …

Hello!  It’s been six months to the day since I last updated you all on what I’ve been up to. And it’s been a busy six months, for sure.  Between tying the knot with my best friend, playing in a handful of baseball games (and consequently being injured a handful of times), reading 20 books …

Sermersuaq

It’s nearly Spring, friends. Though, if you live in the UK it probably doesn’t feel like that. I could say that I finished a new comic to coincide with the cold and recently snowy conditions outside, but honestly, I’m not that organised. This new short comic, Sermersuaq, is about the Greenland Ice Sheet – titled …

Whale hello, 2023

Happy New Year! What a wild and busy start to the year it’s been. First up, my Sato’s beaked whale comic Karasu is now out in the world! I printed a handful of copies in time for the Winchester Comics Fair back in November – and you can get a copy online from my Etsy …

Beaked whales and a recap

Hi everyone, It’s been a while! With a gap of this long since my last website update, it’s hard to know where to begin. Thirteen months is a long time, and most of it has been spent with my nose in books, journals, articles and other sources of information. And I’ve been loving it, too. …

Autumn light

Hi all, We’re already halfway through October, three-quarters of the way through the year, and I’m about two-thirds of the way through my second coffee of the day. How poetic! After the madness of the school summer holidays, I’ve spent the last couple of months getting my priorities in order – trying to focus on …

An Ode to Sparenting

Good morning all! Welcome to November. I have something special for you all today, a new comic that I’ve been creating on-and-off since June. Although it’s not that long in pages, it took some time to finish purely because of the subject matter and its personal nature. Also, it’s in a new format for me. …

Now you sea it, now you don’t…

Good afternoon all! This week I’m going to talk a little about digital painting. Now, as I’m sure you’re all aware by now, I’m a linework-and-paint kinda creator. I have a very set way of working which I’ve used for the past few years, which has made now a perfect time to try something new. …
