New Year's Resolutions



  • Fight the cuts, using the best of my image-making skills.
  • Finish Playing Out, and the next book, and the one after that.
  • 1,000 subscribers to Comical Animal.
  • Refresh jimmedway.com and this tired looking blog.
  • Learn signwriting.
  • Get the canal boat fettled up sparkling good, then sell it.
  • Chase more paid work that isn't teaching.
  • Sort out these piles of books.
  • Run 3 times a week at least.
  • Spend less time on this stupid internet, and more playing with Johnny and Rose.
  • Perfect my homebrew.
  • Continue treating myself to more books.

Recent attention for Comical Animal

Forbidden Planet blog – interview by Kenny Penman

Comics Bureau interview by Dan Berry

Panel Borders / Resonance FM interview by Alex Fitch (audio)

I've not listened to this yet. I'd had 2 pints while waiting for him, so my responses don't necessarily match the questions.

City Learning Centre mural








video

2 weeks ago I spend 3 days in the City Learning Centre at Abraham Moss in Manchester, producing this mural for them. We invited 2 primary classes along, gave them a whistle-stop Illustrator tutorial and left them to design their own future technologies. These were then incorporated into the mural. It was fun!

Comical Animal is GO!



-see for yourself - over here.

Also have a read of Kenny Penman's interview with me over here. It's only the first part, so there's more to come once I've replied to all his questions.

Keep it real, funny animal fans.
