The longer I stay in this art game, the more Han makes sense.
Colored up an illustration for a music video I did with the band Earthphish back in 2020. The music is up on YouTube, you can see it and more of the illos on my website The tune also featured the legendary dub producer Lee “Scratch” Perry. What is my life???

If you know me at all, you know I'm a huge @jerryordway.bsky.social fan - so when I asked him if he wanted to not only do a cover, but homage HIMSELF, I was so happy he said yes! Check out his remix of INFINTY INC. #6, TFF-style! www.kickstarter.com/projects/new...
From last night’s livestream hanging with the brilliant David Blumenstein keeping me company. I shared with him thé news of my impending grandadship (WTF,I KNOW I DON’T LOOK THAT OLD) and the conversation moved to bedtime stories. Oh, I’m colouring à page of Malcolm X too:)
So glad to be on a platform that values positivity unabashedly. Positivity isn’t delusion, though it may appear so through a lens of insecurity and cynicism. Positivity is the ability to give as much as you can, for as long as you’re able, for something you want. Nothing more, nothing less.
The 'eyelashes' on a southern ground hornbill would make a model envious, but here's a neat trick: Those AREN'T eyelash hairs. They're modified FEATHERS. Let's take a look at these specialized structures & why the southern ground hornbill (Bucorvus leadbeateri) needs these long velvet veils.

Thinking while drawing: Four random drops of joy that pull me out of a funk! My dog Django, son Jet, lollipops and Wes Anderson. What? Told you they were random! Feel free to share your random drops of joy below.
Funded! Thanks to everyone who has backed or shared it always means a lot especially in uncertain times. It’s always a thrill for me when people take the time to support our weird little comic. ( I am sure Fraser will be thrilled as well once they wake him from his slumber like a hibernating bear)

THE 10 RULES OF HAPPY, Rule #7: Life is reciprocal. We humans didn't come into the world, we came out of it. We are as natural as flowers, and part of the ecosystem. No one survives alone. Exchange is vital. Hoarding kills. #LifePhilosophy
Very nostalgic about my art at the minute for some reason. Anyway here’s the A1 size art I did in 2023 for an Exhibition in the big Library in Amsterdam. It was proper fancy and expertly curated by @chadbily.eu it was an excuse to have 2 days in the city and meet nice folks at Henks and elsewhere
