With apologies to Matt Groening, a little something I made for the Indo on Martin's White House visit. Concept by Review editor Jon Smith, drawn in Procreate.

Never got around to using this illustration in the Sunday Independent, but that's OK.

As this place starts to feel like it oughta, I'm feeling the pressure to post something.
So here's an old illustration I did for the Sunday Independent that I think we can all relate to...

2/2 But that's not our style (not yet, anyway) so I made above one from stock images and screenshots.
I did, however, wonder what my artificial rival would have created if given the chance. So here, too, is what Firefly proffered after much editing of prompts.
Human or machine, who wore it better?

Back in the 80s, my dad would be away on union activities every other weekend.
The upside for me was getting one of these books on his return.
I managed not to wreck them and now I get to enjoy them all over again with my son.

Our cover for Life magazine on Sunday, with stories from Ireland's LGBTQ+ community.
Tattoo hand-drawn in Procreate and artwork finished in Photoshop. Pretty happy with this one, tbh.
Happy Pride, y'all.

A fine way to celebrate #worldbicycleday - exploring back roads of Kildare (with only minor complaints from the non-pedalling passengers)

A little late for St Patrick's Day but happy with these illustrations for the Sunday Independent: the public figures who make us proud to be Irish. Icons one and all - hence the treatment.

The kids have given our new (to us) RadWagon cargo bike their enthusiastic seal of approval.

So much great work on this share. Here's a few of mine - photos re-marked and extended with various media and a sharp object. (I call them 'landscrapes')
