Draw Charlie Brown, Snoopy and Woodstock using the grid system.

There are so many ways to learn to draw. The grid with part draw character works well as it makes the drawer look for the detail and judge proportions. #bluey

Me and some other characters at work.

Character from a recent client’s commercial comic strip advertising promotion.

Enjoy the drawing process and you’ll be happier with the end result. Also, to draw a person seated, draw the seat first, then sit the character on it. As you would yourself in real life. Many students have told me they draw the character first and it just doesn’t workout.

Another worksheet from an #SEN school workshop. Lots of general tips that apply to any form of drawing as well as cartooning.

A logo I created a while ago for a health and wellbeing service which is associated to the NHS here in the UK.

‘I can’t draw’… oh yes you can! I’ve found many people try to draw the final cartoon without any of the workings, as a result, become frustrated with the results. Enjoy the process of creating cartoons.

Always a pleasure teaching the art of cartooning.

A nice busy cartoon class for Project Indi in Stoke on Trent. Requests began with #paddingtonbear #horridhenry and #rumi #kpop

Here’s a good cartooning tip/task… take different characters and use the proportions to create your own. ‘This guy knows his stuff, he could even help a dog to draw’ said #charliebrown

I took this pic whilst waiting for the kettle to boil at some offices in Macclesfield early Jan 2026. Snow on the ground, bitterly cold outside but then a nice warm blast of sun through the old windows.

With the conflict raging in the Middle East, fuel prices set to rocket, here’s a useful #costofliving tip on how to keep warm and light your home.

When I’m tutoring… the two way interaction and sharing of ideas :)

When I’m muraling…

One of many cartoons created depicting gas, oil, wind and solar energy industries for global clients such as Chevron, TOTAL, Shell, Petro SA and Qatar Gas. Work was printed as educational maps and each one launched at OPEC conferences. #energycartoons

This is what an online drawing class looks like. Fast-tracking ability wherever the person maybe. Back in the real world, the alligatorithms don’t seem to allow me to cross the waters.

Nurturing young creativity through group cartoon drawing classes helps children build confidence, enhance problem-solving skills, encourages interaction & explore expression. The benefits ripple into the use of the English language with story telling. So powerful yet so underrated within education.

It’s the norm for people with poor mental health to struggle to comprehend information and certainly struggle to retain the written word. This is where visual story telling speaks volumes. 30 years experience illustrating that a little goes along way.

Cartoon classes with SEN students are so enjoyable. The enthusiasm and creativity are always overflowing.

#caricature I left the body in linework so the overall style was more graphical with a hint of old comic style.

Some famous faces and others just strange… Commercial and personal project work showing a a mix of different styles.

Mr Creeps…

Not only a perfect denouement, it was the end of an era. Thirty years ago today, this strip was published.

Loads of people struggle with #drawinghands but like everything, there are tips to help make the process that bit easier…
