Buy It Now. A painting of mine which I produced in 1983, is now for sale on eBay. I wish the seller all the best of luck and I'm really happy about this. Now how on Earth he (the seller) got hold of the original painting - I can't answer that, but I can tell you: yes, I painted (airbrushed) it, it's been created by me and myself. Indeed. Now go and order it! Buy it! Now!! Also das ist schlichtweg unglaublich, ich weiß nicht, wo das herkommt, aber es ist definitiv von mir und ich wünsche 'Claus' alles Glück beim Verkauf. This is weird. This really is weird.

On 13 May 1787 eleven ships, now commonly referred to as The First Fleet, set sail from Portsmouth to establish a colony in New South Wales, Australia. They reached their destination on 18 January 1788, 18 years after Captain James Cook had first landed on the east coast of Australia at Botany Bay. One of the unplanned but long-lasting outcomes of this event was the large number of outstanding drawings of aboriginal people, the environment and wildlife found on arrival as well as of the early foundation of the colony.

 Whenever you need to cheer up, wear a bowler hat together with a Groucho Marx mask.

Great. Thanks to GoogleEarth it has come to my attention that Rod Steward Stewart is basically a neighbour of mine. So what's the difference between The Cartoonist and Rod Steward Stewart? The difference is that his back garden is big enough to accommodate a full-size football pitch.

 If you ever get stranded on a planet covered in flesh-eating plants with tentacles, just use your blaster to get rid of them. Easy.

This is Gerry. Gerry is an art director, a mate of mine and one of the few nice people here in London who actually give me work. In his private time he seems to find stuff in the streets of London [MP3], mostly discarded photos (I really don't want to know what else he might find there), and he is now publishing them on a website. Well done!But now I can't get this horrible song out of my brain, which is really irritating.

This is fantastic. It's all done with Action figures and proper sets in a comic strip format. Also check out Inside the TARDIS - a description of the sets, storyboards and models. Great work.

Sometimes. Sometimes those cover illustrations by Johnny Bruck amaze even Basil and myself. And this one is fab, unbelievable; in fact, it's pure madness whatsoever.Apart from that: I'm not well at all. A cold, a flu, Asian birdflu, SARS, who knows. I'm dying very slowly, at least that's what it feels like. See you when I've stopped coughing. cough ... coughcough ... sneeze ... cough ... coughcoughsneezecough ...

Living in England. I need more space. Or a bigger house. But Patrick McGoohan is great (So is the old Sony TV, 20 years old but still up and running perfectly.).
