Let's Call It A Tie

Somewhere Over Tasmania:

I drew this cartoon because Patricia Piccinini's SKYWHALE was supposed to fly over Hobart during the weekend. Unfortunately, it rained both days.

Well, at least she's safe from being popped in the name of science!

Star Struck With Schwarzenegger

Tangled In A Blue Tie

The Dark Knight Meets Dark MOFO

Apologies to Ryoji Ikeda.

His light installation for Dark MOFO really is one of the coolest things I think I've ever seen. Batman showing up would only make it marginally cooler.

Ruddy Optimism

The Protestosteopath

He Makes It Look So Easy...

What?! Another Redhead?

Spoilers

Let me just be upfront about this; I will never pass up any chance to draw Tony Abbott in an Edwardian dress.

The Tasmanian Budget: Now in 3D!

Up, Up and AWAY!!!

Eat Your Peas!

This cartoon is proof that if you put Malcolm Turnbull's head onto a baby's body, you get something that is deeply and terribly disturbing.

Smooth Opposition Tony

Hold On To Your Butts

Jim Wilkinson Wins

I imagine he played "Dancing Queen" to celebrate.

Jolly Ol' Saint Dick Adams

Ok, so Dick Adams has pledged to cut down on his travel costs. I can understand why he would want to fly by plane. It must get really stinky having to ride behind eight reindeer all the time.

He Just Spends All His Time Gambolling Away With His Family

So, I'm at the library with my 21 month old daughter and she's toddling around and squealing and liberating the shelves of books. At one point, she brings a comic up to me, EVERYBODY LOVES TANK GIRL with drawings by Jim Mahfood. I'm quite impressed with this, but I act like I'm slightly disturbed.

As she toddled off in search of other troublesome literature (that is thankfully NOT banned by our library), I checked the book out. I fell immediately in love with Mahfood's inking style and decided to try it out on my next cartoon.

This is that cartoon.

Below Par

Careful Not To Slip On The Entrails

So, the government is thinking about cutting university funding to help pay for the Gonski reforms to primary and secondary schools.

I'm a bit pessimistic about the Australian university system, so I'm just going to say that I had a LOT of fun drawing this cartoon. Too much fun, probably.
