True Stories


Here is my finished entry for the Cheltenham illustration awards. Had lots of fun making this, especially with the dinosaur, which could become a new favourite thing to draw - especially as 'well, I do need to draw some dinosaurs' is just the best excuse to hang out in the Natural History Museum for a day. Or two.

  1. when i saw the small version of this i thought capon what on earth is going on here?! in a good way - intruige. but then viewing the large one it all makes sense.

    brilliant.

    the other day i took a boy drawing at the museum. he was telling me a crazy story and i thought mm. this boy has a very active, odd, imagination. then in dawned on me that he was describing a special happening on world of warcraft!
