Somehow we're most of the way through November?

I guess I can officially mention the 'C' word, but if you know a pet lover who would love a unique portrait of their dog, cat, or even horse, I've opened a few pet portrait slots for the festive period!

More details on my website, see link in bio.

Bit of an odd Thought Bubble as I was ill for chunks of it, but still enjoyed the bits I was at! Just back and planning to be here for the rest of the night.

I'm so looking forward to attending, chatting to people, buying new comics, and hopefully chatting to people about nature!!

I'll be at table D13 in the Redshirt Hall, hopefully see you there!

Wee sneak peak of another folding comic I'm working on.

I learned so much from making The Tower, and I have ideas for a few more as well. It's fun to make comics that are meant to be displayed as well as read!

You can hear that squeaky bike wheel 'chiff chaff' all around right now! Have you heard one?
Chiffchaffs are back 💚 Their unmistakeable chiff-chaffing tune is a sure sign that spring has sprung!
These little warblers are olive-brown in colour and can be seen flitting through trees and shrubs.
