Sorry but AS Colour don’t do the box cut in that green. I could do a black box tee with those same ink colours as a special order, maybe dm me if that is of interest (I too am generally a dark tshirt wearer for practical reasons)

A new tee - I wanted to make something positive for stormy times. I'll take pre-orders up until March 10th and print them after that. Pre-order means it takes a little longer than buying something off the shelf but it'll be custom screenprinted, sent directly from me to you. xtotl.bigcartel.com

I started it at the end of September, 2023, so there might have been a couple before that, before I started my account here

So, today I'm wrapping up People Watching. Massive thanks to everyone who has supported it & all the cool people I've met and drawn. I wrote an article in the Sunday Magazine today talking about the lessons I've learned doing it - and there were so many.

Yes! For cartoonists it has strong 'drew the speech bubble before putting the words in' energy

PΕ«keko Who-keko is in The Listener’s β€˜50 Best Books for Children’ for 2025! If you or someone small you know likes the sound of β€˜sassy assemblage of outrageously rhyming constructs will have you cracking up’ - it might make a good Christmas present, just saying quietly…

Ha, there is a laser kiwi but I didn’t think of good night kiwi, would’ve been good!

Love this so much - kids at Hamilton East School have been reading my book PΕ«keko Who-keko, and one class decided to write and illustrate their own version. A few favourite pages here but the whole thing was great

Ah! Yes they seem to have gone quickly. Practically I had to put a cap on the number of them, they do take a while to do and I’m time-poor!

Support Dr Siouxsie After She Supported Us! | PledgeMe Support Dr Siouxsie to recover some of the money she spent fighting her legal case to protect employees experiencing online abuse

You might have seen that Siouxsie won her legal battle against the UoA, but even after the damages were awarded she ended up massively out of pocket.

So she's asking for help - There's been lots of support already, which is cool to see - Siouxsie deserves it!
