Why Don't They Just Learn English?

(Fineliner on 190mm x 120mm paper)

This was one of the more larger pieces I did last year (and by large I mean just under A5). It depicts a friendly alien species who, having travelled light years across space, shared the fruits of their knowledge with us, and assimilated into human life as best they could, is still confronted with one of those age-old questions of ignorance.

The Injustice Of Everything

(2B pencil on 147mm x 107mm paper)

It started off as a rough sketch which I decided to work on a little more. At first, I was going to call this "Dark Scream" but I didn't think that was a suitable for what it was. The dark scream itself is aimed at "The Injustice of Everything" which was a far more apt title for it.

MARCH OF THE DAMNED

(2B pencil on 178mm x 114mm paper)

A strange image of shadowy figures, all chained together, going hopelessly and reluctantly in the same direction. Above them is a wisp of some scent or sound that was never meant for them.

Two more Guardian Spirit pieces to give out to people I meet. One depicting the standard alien grey, whilst the other shows an alien creature with a very apt name.

Prophecy 4 : WE HACKED YOUR ROBOT

 

(HB pencil on 123mm x 95mm paper)

We hacked your robot
Whilst you were away
Out at play

And gone for the day

We hacked your robot

Bought for those jobs

You were too lazy to do

Status-Tech

For the people you knew

And it did all that you asked

Everything it was tasked

Without complain

Or pain

Or gain

It "cleaned" your home

It "fed" your cat

And dealt with all

Your worthless tat

And when it was done

Its work complete

It just sat down

In your favourite seat

To make you aware

That without a care

You deserved what you got

When WE HACKED YOUR ROBOT!

Star-Keeper

(HB pencil on 120mm x 100mm paper)

 Another dreamscape work where a planetary theme seemed to develop with the glowing orb and the line of spheres near the leaning figure. "Star-Keeper" was then an obvious choice for the title of it.
