Another one of the “Go-Go Hares” series the I’ve been drawing recently to go with the Norwich sculpture trail.
I send out a cartoon newsletter, Monday to Friday. Add your name and mail address below and I’ll send it to you.
Cartoon Workshop - promo image
Seeing as cartoons are a lot of fun to think up and create, what better than to feature the Charleston King Charles Spaniel in the latest promo pic?
I’m running a cartoon workshop at The Tea Room, Elm Hill Norwich, at 10:30am August 29th.
All welcome!
“Bored”
Today’s topic word was “bored”. I thought I’d play around with the idea of boring holes, as opposed to something unstimulating, and who better to bore holes and wreak havoc that a mole?
I send out cartoon newsletter Monday to Friday, fill in the boxes below and get the latest cartoons.
“Dusty”
Today’s topic word on the cartoon forum was “dusty”.
I got the initial idea for this when watching an episode of “Sherlock”. John (Watson) visits the Diogenes club looking for Sherlock and this gave me the setting of a very stuffy club where nothing much changes.
Ever thought about giving someone a cartoon as a unique gift? Probably not....but I can draw one for you. Drop me a mail.
“Wet”.
Today’s theme word on the cartoon forum was “Wet”, so I thought I’d modify a previous picture of Suki and Gerald fishing to create this one.
i can draw for you too - drop me a mail.
Windy
I’m a member of a cartoon forum, and every day there is a different theme word that we have to illustrate. Here is one of the words from last week, “windy”.
The original idea was to have a lone yachtsman on a really calm day, playing his sousaphone in order to get the boat moving moving. When I started sketching it out I decided to switch to a Viking longboat and brass band, as that seemed a whole lot more fun.
I can draw cartoons for you too, whether it is a unique gift for a friend or a picture to illustrate a blog lpart or article. Drop me a mail.
Cartoon Workshop Flyer
This is the completed flyer design for the Cartoon Workshop at The Tea House Norwich, on 29 August.
Cartoon Workshop Poster
Here is the complted poster design.
Cartoon Workshop Poster
This is a draft poster design for a Cartoon Workshop I’m running in a couple of weeks time at The Tea House, Elm Hill Norwich.
I thought it would be fun to run a free event for folks to come along and try their hand at cartooning regardless of their starting point.
Gerald at the Seaside again
As part of the cartoon forum I’m a member of, we have a daily topic word that we have to illustrate.
For this particular one the word was “salty”, so I thought that I feature another cartoon of Gerald visiting the seaside.
The female character is “Suki” who first appeared in various Lionel Peabody cartoons, but now also seems to feature in various fishing cartoons as well.
Do you like the look of the pics you see on this site?
If so, drop me a mail and I can draw for you too.
Illustrated Book Notes - Good to Great by Jim Collins
This month’s book was “Good to Great” by Jim Collins.
I chose five of my key take-home points to illustrate.
Bookdoodles
Aa
In this monthly series, I take a book that I have read and produce five cartoons based on key insights I gained from the book.
Why five cartoons?
I chose five because the optimal number of items that can be held in short-term memory.
Illustrated Book notes - The Heretics by Will Storr
Every month I produce a set of illustrated book notes based on a book I’ve read. Last month’s book was ‘The Heretics’ by Will Storr.
The Amur Leopard
I first drew a version of this picture a few years ago when the number of Amur leopards surviving in the wild was estmatated at between 30 - 40. I am pleased to say that due to conservation efforts that number has increased to around 100. However, the Amur leopard remains critically endangered.
“Lost Ball”
“Lost Ball”
This one I drew during the recent Open golf championship.
“For You”
“For You”
A recent cartoon I drew for a client who wanted a picture to go with an ebook on getting people’s attention.
Inspector Ffromage
Inspector Ffromage
This started off life as an illustration to go with the topic word “slippery”. I originally intended to do a simple picture, but when this idea popped into my head I couldn’t resist drawing it.
Deliver a message quickly
Cartoons grab the attention and get a point across quickly. Attention spans are becoming increasingly limited, so cartoons give you a way to quickly attract the viewer.
I can help you to grab your viewer’s attention with some cartoons drawn just for you.
Illustrated Booknotes - They Ask, You Answer
Illustrated Booknotes on ‘They Ask, You Answer’ by Marcus Sheridan.

I can draw for you too.
