Reading In Bed

Not that anyone wants updates on how I'm feeling...but I do find being sick in bed gives me the opportunity to recommend the book I'm reading, as it's the comic book equivalent of comfort food but also brilliant. Comfort food made by a cordon bleu chef...Anyway It's The Toon Treasury of Children's Comics and it's just amazing.

Been checking out your work recently, Eric. I'm surprised I hadn't heard of you before. Lovely askew gothic puppety feel to your work. Some nice colour work, but the b/w stuff really appeals to me. I'm quite jealous.

I'd be very interested to know what you plan to do with the Harry and Silvio strips. Maybe you have a publisher? Some of those cloudscapes and the little bobbing Caractacus Potts style inventions... fab!

Keep up the good work!

Hello,

I hope that you are now a lot better and I am sure you are as you have been blogging some more. I saw that you were reading a Toon book and I was wondering if you knew about the British Cartoon Archive?http://www.cartoons.ac.uk/
It is an interesting read for people who enjoy knowing stories behind the pictures.

By the way your illustrations are really intricate. There seems to be a little sense of menace or doubt in them which doesn't make it all fluffy and straightforward. I hope you don't mind me saying that.
