A Drawing a Day #35
A spot of self-indulgency, though I suppose all these drawings are self-indulgent really! Anyway, it was something to dab at while watching TV. I first went to Japan because I was interested in Ukiyo-e, perhaps this indicates a little of that old fascination.

A Drawing a Day #32
Something a little different in tone! I'm working on a couple of books at the moment, one of them a new edition of Jack and the Beanstalk for a Japanese publisher. The ogre in the final book will be altogether lighter in tone, more in the Fairy Tale tradition, but while pushing pen around paper I couldn't help scribbling this cheerful chappie just for fun.

A Drawing a Day #28
This is one of those kind of doodles you can leave at any point and come back later to finish. Perhaps it's a subconscious compulsion, but for me there's something immensely satisfying in drawing lots and lots of squiggly spirals.
