Funicular Railway. This was meant to be dystopian but came out as a cute blend of Andor and Ramsbottom.

Hello, Milo!

New painting.

I like to imagine cities for my son to drive his Hot Wheels cars around. This one is a retro sci-fi mash-up of Tokyo and Los Angeles.

The sun is shining and our cat, Milo, is in his happy spot on top of the shed.

This week's work in progress. The worse the news gets, the more pastel and escapist I go.

My sons love Charlie Brown (indoctrinated t
at an early age). Every Christmas, I try and paint a mural on the front window for them (and for me obv. 😀). Here is this year's. Most happy with Snoopy's extravagantly decorated doghouse in the background.

Hello! Here’s my contribution for this month’s #kidlitartpostcard

It’s a wintry illustration for a story I haven’t written yet. The boy looks a bit like baby Richard III, doesn’t he?

Finding an agent is my goal next year. Looking forward to seeing everyone else’s postcards. Let’s goooo!

Chelsea, London, on a rainy night. This is a digital version of an earlier gouache/ ink picture I made. I bloody love drawing daft buildings.

I finished my painting. Very pleased with this one.

Chelsea, London by night.

My main job is being a carer for my autistic son.

I draw the vehicles like Hot Wheels because this is how we used to line them up when he was tiny. We would make building block towns for them to drive around. Now I make pictures and I go back to this happy time a lot 😊

Work in progress on a theme of London by night. I borrowed my son's toy routemaster for reference 🤓. Just more vehicles and trees to add.

All the houses that are here. A drawing about place and memory and how those memories are sometimes unreliable.

Tiny manga Hokusai houses in a big pile! Bit of fan art for you.
