a blues for Isaac Hayes


So, farewell then Isaac Hayes.
I never saw you in a tux.
You died at 65.
The usual age for a bluesman.

You were cool.

In Illo Tempore


A few months ago I had an email from DICE TSUTSUMI at Pixar asking me if I would contribute a picture to the TOTORO FOREST PROJECT. Dice said that SAYAMA forest is in danger of being buried under suburban development and we can't have that if we can help it. There are more than enough suburbs and there is only one Totoro Forest. The TOTORO FOREST PROJECT aims to save these tranquil woods for posterity. Dice has asked hundreds of artists who work in the animation business - you-all know who you are - to contribute paintings, drawings and sculptures to the fund-raising gig. You can read more about it here and see the stuff that's been done.

Mrs. Coulter's Monkey

This is Mrs. Coulter's 'daemon' which I did while working on the GOLDEN COMPASS.
You can see more of him over at Limbolo Bespoke.

Oxford landings...


I did this a couple of years ago while working on the GOLDEN COMPASS. It's not part of the visual concept of that movie so I left to one side, where it belongs, in Limbololand.
