I entered The Runaway Baby, which is very much work-in-progress, in the Macmillan Prize last week, and am very very happy to hear it’s won the Lara Jones Award.
This is a new part of the Macmillan Prize in memory of the creator of Poppy Cat, and is for illustration for babies and very young children. So the Runaway Baby, and Hilda, will be in the gallery at Foyles Charing Cross Road from May 29th until the 1st of June (Tuesday-Friday), with all the winning and highly commended entries, including work by four other people from the Cambridge MA. There may well be a beautiful whale and some very impressive moorhens.

Crit Bird
Doodling with rubbish during our slightly hysterical masters project crit on Wednesday.
Fiesta!
I just picked up some new party invitations which I illustrated for Earlybird. The invitations are quite small so not all of the cats and pirates I drew made it into print. This may be why the cat-band’s frontman is displeased: as you will see below, his percussionists have gone off without him. Now, who’s going to finish my dissertation so we can have a party?
