Another new novel cover! When EV Wallace, a Scottish writer, reached out to me, her design brief was chock full of so many of my favourite things to draw. Art deco? 1920s? Ancient Egypt? Yes please.

One of the first and most powerful of the international unions, the Biscuit Makers (est. 1904) was at the forefront of struggles for dignity and justice in the lives of working cats. Its message resonates through the many worlds: "The kneads of the people come first!"

A cat poster in the style of a mid-century soviet propaganda poster. A grey and white cat in work overalls has his arms outstretched kneading a large pillow shaped clump of dough. Behind him is another cat that holds a bowl of baked biscuits. They stand in front of a huge red flag behind which is a graphic of rows of conveyor belts of biscuits in a biscuit factory. There is a logo for the "International Union of Biscuit Makers" and bold text at the bottom which reads "The Kneads of the People Come First - Full Bellies! - Food For All!" In smaller type various credits.

I have been BUSY with book commissions. This is for a recent ww2 era horror/sci-fi/psychological thriller that explores trauma and memory. Instead of opting for a cliche war movie poster, I did something a little more unsettling and symbolic.

last night we had ed sheeran apologizing for saying what’s happening in palestine is bad and at the same time david byrne putting up a huge graphic that says MAKE AMERICA GAY AGAIN and showing footage of ICE brutality to a sold out crowd. you can actually be famous and successful AND give a shit.

I was just talking to a friend today about Dolly Parton's Imagination Library - new books every month, totally for free, for kids ages 1-5. My son was part of the program - this is a copy of the letter that came with his last book, right after his 5th birthday.

We don't have time to do another cycle of realizing this is an emergency only to let politicians forget about come winter. Soon enough we won't even have a season that doesn't have constant fires. Mark Carney and Danielle Smith and Doug Ford are actively accelerating this across the country
