I sold editorial cartoons regularly while at university (Natural Sciences, Cambridge University, then Philosophy, Bristol University).
I got a studio in Bristol, married (still am; three kids) , created three-page comic stories monthly for 2 ½ years for The Damage, a British scatological, sometimes political adult comic, illustrated The Harmonious Wheatsmith (1991, ISBN 0 951 7890 07, about organic farming), and sold numerous other illustration works.

Then while a school physics teacher, winning an international award (Physics on Stage, 2003), I produced hundreds of cartoon worksheets. A few fine art drawings sold privately and others were shown in galleries; Life-drawing continues to be my constant devotion since 1990. I am now self-employed producing science cartoons, and my humorous popular science graphic guide needs a publisher.
Graphic guide
Some 240 pages of fully-illustrated astonishing, accurate science, with an international-award-winning flair for making concepts in physics clear and fascinating. It needs a publisher!
Puzzles
The New York Times hosts a blog, Numberplay, that features maths and logic puzzles.
In November 2014 it featured one maths challenge by the celebrated maths writer Ian Stewart, and this other challenge by me; my cartoon portrait of the late Martin Gardner, arch maths puzzlist, surrounded by enigmatic symbols of the themes of his writings.

My next offering is titled Ant War and I have more illustrated logic puzzles and physics puzzles in production.
Art
These are some of my artworks, some exhibited (Bath Society of Artists Annual Exhibition, Happening Gallery, North Bristol Art Trail), some not. They are all representational and figurative, in varying flavours of abstract.
