Abba & Chuck 2







Time Out continued to use me, mainly to illustrate their film review page, but it wasn't long before I started working for the music press.

I think the Abba drawing was done for Melody Maker. This second Chuck Berry I did for myself and has never been published

My 1st. published drawing










This drawing of Chuck Berry was, I think, the first pict
ure I ever had published. It was commisioned by Time Out the London listings magazine sometime in the mid to late seventies.



My intention is to use this site to publish a bunch of old drawings, [caricatures, for the most part] that, otherwise would lay unused and unseen. I haven't done this sort of work, commercially at least, for about twenty years, so, as some subjects have waned into obscurity, some images will need a little explanation but apart from that I will let the drawings speak for themselves and hope they find a generous audience with good, long memories.
