Love Will...



Well sorry to keep harping on about the past, but Im just a wee nostalgic cape wearer.

This is another piece o' work from university that I found a few weeks back in me old portfolio, 'Love Will Get Us'- an interesting experiment... Follow a word via thesaurus to its polar opposite. Everything really is linked apparently.

A girl called it cute last year. um.


Also doodle daydream's hit its fantastiastically 16th issue! one a day! Thanks everyone for reading, hope you're enjoying !

Just yell if they're boring you...

Kieran The Mallard!

Kieran-an is leaving for sunnier (um?!) shores... Booo! but yaay! for him anyway!
So Abe teamed up with Mr The Laps to make this comic based around Kierans experiances (or whatever). Plot & words by Gabrielle, Pictures by Abe.

At the moment Im particularly enjoying the naive petite comic strip format, boldly coloured... Its, like so wow!

Inhibited Abe Strikes Back!

You find a ball in the street and you want to throw it, or kick it. But you can't. Inhibitions (both real and imagined) prevent us from enjoying the things which matter.

Without them though, what'd I draw about???

I will dance to great music every day, and twice on sunday's.

The ever inspiring Jeffery Lewis. I saw him a few years ago, but couldn't appreciate him fully back then.

Tatanka/ Abe needs a Delorian

Abe dug this out of a portfolio last week.

A woodblock print of one Tatanka Yotanka I had made during my foundation course, shrunk and multiplied on the ever delightful St. Martins photocopiers, and, (during the second year of my degree) used to wallpaper my studio space.

Central Saint Martins will move to Kings Cross shortly, and this year the Foundation course at Byam Shaw will be closed. Both my primary and secondary school have been knocked down and rebuilt in the last five years.

It feels like my past is being erased... Or something or other... Ho humm.

Records Without Player

I have Records. But I dont got me a player no more. Sigh.

Part of a 12 panel strip on the subject, as part of Abe's grand comics experiment. I am back in the game, but I still dont really know how to play... It is fun though, so worthwhile it seems...

Abe Promises Solemnly


Well, recently I had allowed myself to be sidetracked from the sole thing which I have any real hope in to rescue me from the grey tones shading my present state. Don't get me wrong, I'm as big a fan o' grey as the next fellow, but after so long it begins to get insufferable in an Aghrewsjhdgsdhakf! kind of way.

But now it is my solemn promise to myself that I will get back on track!

Time to stop worrying too much and just do things!


Meanwhile here's Warpaints lovingly sung Billie Holiday:
