Dessinators are go

Our intrepid gang of globe-trotting comic artistes shall henceforth be known under the collective name of The Dessinators. Sounds pretty good, eh?

Hello again

I've been somewhat preoccupied for the last few months, and need to refocus. Here is a page from my sketchbook from this summer. Might develop into something, who knows...?

I will be venturing forth to Comiket on November 10.

Can do – should do – will do

Finally finished and sent off my story that will appear in issue 2 of Ink+paper, David O'Connell's wonderful, perfectly-formed comic anthology. Now to get on with my other projects... Whatever life throws at me, I always feel better when I draw, and even betterer after I actually complete something. I like feeling good, therefore I must create more – simple equation!

Winter over

The 'look inside' feature is now up and running on my book in the AMAZON kindle store, so here's hoping sneak peaks might boost my sales.
I forgot to mention this review Rob Clough posted last month of the minicomics I sent him.
I have arisen from my winter torpor and got back to work on my contribution for Ink+Paper while gearing myself up for Comica — less than two weeks away now...


Seems like forever since Angouleme.

TMNTITW is now available through Amazon as a Kindle download... How very 21st century!



The 'Look inside' feature apparently takes a bit longer to activate – hopefully it will be up and running soon.
We shall see whether there is any interest in comic books in this format, as the choice on offer appears to be a fairly limited so far. Being black and white and mostly simple line work, this book seems eminently suitable for the medium.
If the reaction is encouraging, now we have cracked the technology, I will no doubt upload some more of my back catalogue.
The digital revolution marches on. I personally prefer good old-fashioned paper and ink, physical tomes with smells to breathe in and textures to fondle. But why ignore a whole world of people who experience their reading in a different way and don't need to clog their lives with objects. All power to them I say.
And I swear I can hear a million trees breathing sighs of relief .

Lloyd Johnson: the modern outfitter

I forgot to mention the totally brilliant opening night at Lloyd Johnson's exhibition at Chelsea Art Space we attended on January 24th. The exhibition runs until until March 3rd, it's free and features some of Nick's and my stuff among all the unbelievably iconic clobber on show.


Nick poses proudly by his boots.




I think I overdid the imbibing a tad, but escaped the country the following day, albeit in a rather fragile state.
