Red Dust Racers

Graeme Cocks' Red Dust Racers, for which I illustrated the cover, is out now, having launched last Sunday at Mulberry on Swan (where I signed many a french-fold dust jacket and poster for the owners of all the old TCs, Sunbeams and Model Ts outside. Had to park the Hyundai around a corner, natch). The 4 kilo tome has another launch at the WA Museum in Kalgoorlie this weekend. I won't get there but am open to other automotive illustration commissions ...

To get ready for this year's LICAF I put together a couple of anthologies of my (too few) comics from over the (too many) years, including client commissions and some of the Perth 24 hour comics from the 90s. Big love to my [sic]BAG brothers Justin Ednie-Brown, Simon Wright and Steve Makse!
