Japan Fundraiser

Work loads have recently reached critical mass, amid everything else I've been doing two comic strips for a Japan disaster relief fundraising comic thats being put together by the wonderful folks at The Comic Book Alliance.


One strip has been written by Martin Conaghan, Its a collage/ photo montage style strip, and above is a panel for a three page folk story script written by Jaspre Bark. I really enjoyed working on these really different style strips, the turnaround was incredibly fast so there was no time to really fret about detail or tweak, I hope they work okay! This book has some fantastic contributions coming in from all quarters. More details about where & when you can buy it as soon as possible.

Some other beautiful artwork to raise funds for Japan has been produced By Japanese Manga artist, and regular Inverness Hi-Ex Guest, Chi-tan . There are also details on her blog of other ways you can support the Japan relief effort.

Another recent piece of charity art I've done is now available for auction on-line to raise funds for the Edinburgh Youth charity The Rock Trust. This charity does invaluable work for vulnerable young people in the Lothian area & is a very worthy cause.

The Rock Trust fundraiser

'The Rock Trust is a charity that works in Edinburgh and West Lothian with homeless and socially excluded young people between the ages of 16 and 25 years.'
every couple of years they run a charity fundraising Art postcard auction. The exhibition opens next week and features work from all sorts of big names, including the wonderful comic artist from 2000AD and Elephant man- Boo Cook. Previous contributors have included John Byrne. I will post links to the on-line auction as soon as the site goes live.
above is my small contribution ' Running Free' 6" x 4" mixed media.
