Have you got your copy of my new colouring book yet?
I’ve been asked a few times by different people if I’d produce a book of my doodles that grown ups could colour in. So here it is – a pad containing 20 of my favourite van doodles to help you unwind or to while away those spare moments.
Colouring books are A4 gummed pads with a cardboard back. Doodles are reproduced on 160g acid-free paper.

I’m organising a community art project to fund another Christmas lunch at No. 84 this year and I’d love as many people as possible to get involved – wherever you are in the world, whatever your your age, artistic skills, experience or ambitions. All you have to do is design a Christmas card and donate it to the project.
Designs will be made into A6 cards (at cost by Singlewell Stationery and Print http://www.singlewell.co.uk/) and sold in packs of 6, with all profits going to fund the 2019 Christmas lunch at No. 84. If we raise a lot of money, any extra will be donated to Crisis at Christmas.
Nearer to Christmas, we’ll have an exhibition of all the cards at No. 84 and a launch event. If loads of people get involved we could also have other exhibitions or events at local venues.
If you want to join in, here is what you have to do:
Let me know you want to take part via ‘contact’ on this website, or via Facebook etc
Design a Christmas card that you are willing to donate to the project free of charge
Get your design to me by the 19th May 2019

For those of you in the Gravesend area, I will arrange some local collection points and let people know where these are via Facebook. I’ll also keep this ‘Event’ post updated with the latest news and information.
If you live further afield and need to send an original, drop me an email and I’ll send you my postal address.
