Glebelands School, Dundee, c. 1923 (?); my Gran, Margaret Horsburgh Cameron (1913-2007), sat on front seat far left.

Thanks for this - my Gran and her Cameron family lived in Lilybank Road from around 1900 into the 1920s, nos. 44 and 38; and my Gran went to Glebelands School (photo).

Two widescreen comic panels showing scenes from samurai in battle; the top one green and yellow spearmen fight red and brown swordsmen; the bottom one in a village, huts aflame, horses gallop through, a samurai in red and green swings his spear at a rifleman and swordsman.

Cover for a magazine called '5D' - a greywash head portrait of Marc Bolan with stars, flowers, planets, a swan and a nymph in his long hair, the tag-line is 'T-Rextacy at the Felbridge' (a T-Rex covers band).

Old work ... a cover I did for a local entertainments guide in 1993.

⭐️COVER REVEAL⭐️ for our graphic novel Wilomina: The Land of Dreams and Nightmares! @scholasticuk.bsky.

We’ve been working on it since 2023. It’s been quite a journey. The idea was one of those lightning bolt moments.

Think Spirited Away, My Neighbor Totoro, Labyrinth & Wednesday

“In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit."
A small acrylic painting for a Patreon supporter. Quite a lovely hole in the ground really. I think the movie version of Bag End certainly had a lot of people going 'yeah I'd be happy to live there'.

Thanks - that's good feedback. That would be ideal, but I'm keeping it slim and quick - it's a tester rather than a teacher.

I made a little online music quiz to help my children learn to read music. It's still in play-test mode, does it work for you?

Drawing of Julius Chancer walking and Lily Lawrence behind, turning to look back; black line drawing with solid red and half-tone red, inspired, I think, by those Chaland and Clerc comics of the 1980s.

What's black and white and red all over? This drawing.

I've only done small illo jobs so far - I'll be doing my first comics page from scratch on it next week, that'll be the test!

Can't answer your question (sorry) but I am going through the process of ditching Photoshop (after almost 30 years) for Affinity. Haven't fully explored it yet, but did my last two illo jobs fully in Affinity and they went ok. Still feels slightly alien and fiddly at the moment.
