I WILL be showing these cartoons at the forthcoming St Just-le-Martel Cartoon Festival in Limoges.

They asked for cartoons on astronomy and I thought I would also incorporate some caricatures as well just to show the full breadth of my amazing talents!

I’VE BEEN working on some roughs for a competition Air New Zealand are planning to launch. It’s always interesting to see how fresh and immediate roughs appear. They are often much more satisfying to look at than finished artwork. (Click on images to enlarge)

My career as an amateur astronomer is blighted by street lighting and the English weather. In fact you could say that I suffer from…

I’ve seen Galaxies, Milky Ways and Mars
in sweet shops – they’re chocolate bars.
But I’ve never seen them in the night sky
either with telescope or naked eye.

I must be a poor astronomer
to be missing such phenomena.

Halley’s Comet, meteors, nebulae
are celestial marvels I never see.
The cloudy skies keep them out of sight,
besides, I’m asleep at that time of night.

I can’t even muster
a globular cluster.

Astronomers like to play little games:
constellations don’t look like their names;
Uranus is rude, ‘yurrenus’ will do;
we can’t have a planet doing a poo.

Life on other planets is unlikely:
the concept is totally alien to me.

Despite all this I carry binoculars
in case I discover some new stars.
My friends find this all rather comical
- the odds against it are astronomical.

Independent Cartoonist, Dave Brown at his drawing board

I WENT TO see the exhibition of cartoons by Independent cartoonist Dave Brown last night at The Political Cartoon Gallery. There is an awe-inspiring array of meticulously-crafted artwork here from his regular Saturday offerings when he draws spoofs from well known artworks to reflect what has been happening in the news. Unfortunately, I couldn’t post any of the cartoons here because of copyright, but I urge you go along an see this marvellous exibition!

In the meantime, the great man himself wrote this illuminating article about being a cartoonist, last year.
