More Other Goose

Hot on the trail of my previous worst seller comes this new collection of Mother Goose nursery rhymes. There are some old familiar favorites like the Lady Bird rhyme, and less familiar ones like Pretty John Watts and the rats.

I had a lot of fun illustrating these. But be warned, they contain dark themes, like all the best nursery rhymes.

32 pages, A6 in size, with 14 illustrated rhymes in black and white by me.

Fun and terror for all the family.

Scare the kids into submission.

Available form my ETSY shop.

Elizabeth JMW

I have the great honour of working with Elizabeth JMW, a wonderful Canadian writer on some new projects. It started out that I read some of her earlier stories and wanted to illustrate them. She at the time was looking for an illustrator for a graphic novel she wanted to do. Now we are at work on many projects. The first to be finished is The Boy Who Owned The Forest, one of her early fairy tales which I have illustrated. 

The second in our collaborations is this cover I've done for her latest 398 zine. The Candy Makers Daughter, 398#12. Normally her zines are perzines, with articles and stories, but this is kind of a novella at 44 pages. It's a great read and I highly recommend it.

Happy reading

New Zines

I haven't updated this for a while. But I have been busy. All these zines are available at my ETSY store. Click here.

There's plenty more to come, but I thought I should add some of what I've been doing lately. 
Stay tuned for more information on my first novel style book, "The Universe Is Out There", and hopefully soon the true story of the Cat Walk Cat.
Plus I've been collaborating with many talented people lately. It's all very exciting, and I'll be giving a sneak preview of some of these projects soon.

 

Little red Riding Hoodie

I've found that over the years that I like to make things difficult for myself. So I think of an idea that repulses me and then try to make it into something I can live with. How about Aussie versions of classic fairy tales? How about "Little Red Riding Hoodie". Well why not. This is the result, and I can sleep at night, just.

Young Blue is asked by her mother to go to Nanna's house to deliver some steaks as she is feeling poorly. The holidays have been boring this year as the water is too cold to swim, so young Blue is more than happy to put on her Red Hoodie, and skate over to her Nan's house.
But on the way a pesky Tasmainian Devil has other plans.
What happens to the young Red Riding Hoodie, and her poor fully sick Nanna for that matter?
32 page book, lavishly illustrated in full colour by me, with lots of red. Measures 15cm X 10cm (6in X 4in).
Warning: Does contain depictions of blood splattered walls but it does have a happy ending, unless you're a Tasmanian Devil.
