Above is another in my ‘Mike’s Universe’ series. On Saturday I sat down at Robberg Beach 5 at Plettenberg Bay and drew what was happening. A dude was talking to a lady. Waves weren’t that nice for surfing. Luckily I had ma sketchbook.

‘Heaven’s Countryland Part 1’, one of the four shorts from David O’Reilly for which I did a bunch of 8bit graphics, won an honorable mention at the Ottawa International Animation Festival. That’s nice:

I was going through some old files and discovered these treasures from when I was a toddler:

I dig this. Kind of like the person’s got an apple head. 3 colours, can make out the pic – nice. Hi-5 young Mike.

So, this. My mother never used to drink whisky, and she’s not particularly tall. She is slim though and she did play tennis. Made for some interesting conversations at teacher-parent day where she really tried to impress that she does not drink whisky. Why I did this, I’m not sure I’ll ever know. Sorry ma. You’re still my best mum.

I’m currently finishing off a ‘Millionz-O-Doodz’ canvas for a buddy’s gallery opening in Muizenberg, Cape Town:
