Alien Landscape With Spaceman and Geographical Anomalies...

Yeah, You'd think by now I'd know better, huh?

"Grayscale" scan below...

My Hidden Shallows...

"When the Truth is found to be lies/And all the Joy within you dies..." Who said that? Was it Grace Slick at Woodstock, or Jim Carrey in Cable Guy?

Anyway, here's another Sketchbook Cartoon drawn today...

Drawings & Sketches April 13th & 14th 2013...

This drawing was planned for something else, but then I started playing around with lettering and Letraset markers, hence this "title" drawing for the sketchbook extracts drawn over the last couple of days and posted below...

The Monk and the Fly...

More playing around with markers...

What The Hell is George Playing At Now?

Well, I'm not too sure either. And what's an Oculator? And why does it speak Latin? What the heck is she reading? Oh, well... I've dedicated it to John Orlando maybe he knows???

"Civilsation Just Can't Cope With Too Much Fuckin' Peace"...l

How's that for a catchy motto for 2013?

Possibly, the last drawing of 2012 from Filthy Moods, and another self-indulgent dollop of hokum from the "folks" who also brought you Martian Love Machine, Uncle Shit-Beetle and Wanking Jesus... Who says we ain't got standards?

Maybe it's just a "phase" I'm going through. Who knows?

Thank you for dropping by.

Please deposit your apple cores in the waste basket by the exit and call again soon...

Unlikely Twinge of Optimism or Grumpy Manifesto?

Here I am, settling down to embark on another year of drawing & writing with my usual monk-like discipline and air of serious sobriety...

The "Better Nation" quote is taken from the great novelist, writer and artist/designer, Alasdair Gray, (I think that he may have borrowed it from a poet - Will check!) Anyway, it sums up my philosophy of "just because we live in countries dragged into shit and mediocrity by greedy dishonest politicians and tunnel-visioned media whores, that we shouldn't apply humour, imagination and craftsmanship to our own work".

Gray wrote, Lanark, Poor Things, and 1982:Janine, among many others. If you haven't read him, check him out.

Fish Containing Broken Dude

It's, er... a fish containing... oh, c'mon! You know that I make this stuff up as I go along...

It Must Be Christmas...

A quick sketch containing the Filthy Moods spirit of Good Cheer and tasteful restraint.

Merry Xmas to you all!

Alien Porn!

Yes, I've seen the future, and it's not very nice. Mind you, the past and the present were pretty fucked up too, so let's just get on with it.

It's true: First the Aliens will find us, then bomb the shit out of us, and then they will steal our toilet paper and sell it to wealthy alien clients to keep in perspex cases in museums, or for rich alien perverts to masturbate over. Oh, the bitter irony! Damn those erotic perforations!

Be vigilant. Hide your bog rolls. The aliens are on their way...

Oh, yeah... Enjoy the cartoon!
