V.I.P Briggs

Cartoon of lady wearing 1980s-style power suit and a badge saying 'VIP'. She carries a huge key-ring, and is wagging a finger and saying 'You've been very naughty. I'm going to have to SMACK you.' The cartoon is captioned 'V.I.P. Briggs, Senior Manager.'

A caricature I drew of an acquaintance's wife. She's a social worker.

They Found the Grail in Scope

Cartoon of knights finding Holy Grail in Summertown Scope shop. The grail gleams at the end of a shelf, next to a coffee cup, a travel clock, a photo of a flower, a straw donkey souvenir of España, and a china cat. The knights converse as follows. A: 'The Holy Grail! We've found it!' B: '£9.99 is a lot of money.' C: 'Cheaper than that one in Oxfam.' D: 'Wonder who gave it?' E:'They do say Summertown is rich.' F (sniffing disdainfully): 'Rich beyond the dreams of avarice.'

I drew this for a charity card sale. Selling my cards for Scope in Summertown, and giving them half the profit.

BB Sheep One

Cartoon with three frames. First frame shows a sheep standing on a hillside, with wind turbines whirring away in the background. The sheep looks a bit angry and has a thought bubble saying 'Bored'. Second frame shows the sheep with a thought bubble enclosing a light-bulb with the word 'IDEA!' nearby. Third frame shows the sheep contentedly chewing grass and watching a television with a power cable running to one of the turbines. The television screen says 'BB Sheep One'.

A birthday card I drew for a friend who likes wind turbines.

Tommy Guthrie

Roughish caricature of guitarist in front of microphone, with drum displaying 'The Tommy Guthrie One-Man Band'. The guitarist is singing 'I heard a siren / Coming from the docks / Saw a train / Set the night on fire.'

Quick caricature of busker in Cornmarket. I originally used these words, from Hobo's Lullaby:

I know the police cause you trouble
They cause trouble everywhere
But when you die and go to Heaven
You'll find no policemen there.
but he thought that might be provocative.

Ulfgar Moves With the Times

Rough sketch of no-entry sign enclosing a witch being burnt at a stake. Under the sign is a caption: 'We don't burn witches in Wolvercote.' and then a newline and another caption: 'Wolvercote ~ proud to enter the 21st century.' with '21st' crossed out and replaced by '18th'.

A rough sketch drawn at the Wolvercote farmers' market last Sunday. It was their 9th birthday, so my mind was running on anniversaries.
