In need of enlightenment?

By That's life

Spiritual enlightenmentWhen it comes to quotes of spiritual inspiration, can you possibly go past Gandhi?

Live as if you were to die tomorrow; learn as if you were to live forever

And now for an e-plug for someone of today who inspires me with their interpretation of quotes – Gavin Aung Than of ZenPencils.  Not that he needs it – he’s living comic superstar who brings famous quotes to visual life through his amazing comic work. I had the pleasure of meeting him in person last year at the Australian Cartoonists Association yearly conference. I almost got close enough to rub shoulders.

So what’s your favourite quote?

Don’t be shy; we all need a bit of inspiration. Share.

 

The last straw

The straw that broke the camel's back

Whilst drawing this cartoon I couldn’t help but think…

that this would make a fantastic real life starter pack for all the new relationships out there. I mean, you can get His and Hers towels. Everyone carries a secret His and Hers baggage full of delights to share and discover during the course of the relationship. Then why not a His and Hers set of straws? At least you’d know where you stood.

What do you think? The next must have product for couples?

 

Collect your thoughts

catching thoughts literally

I can see why you would leave ‘Check emails’ behind, but ‘Ring in-laws’…That’s dangerous to leave behind!

What thoughts could you happily leave behind?

 

Merry christmas tree

Christmas tree of angels

I’ll be going on holidays in 2 more days and have run out of cartoon drawing time, so I’ve recycled a Christmas one from last year.

Merry Christmas and safe holidays. See you in the new year.

Here boy, fetch

By Dogs

Dog and stickSticks, selfie sticks, frisbees – What do they all have in common?

Dogs like to fetch them! So it got me thinking, about record stick fetching achievements and sure enough, the Guinness World Record group has come to my calling. Introducing Davy Whippet (and Rob McLeod) who broke the Guinness World Record for the longest flying disc throw caught by a dog with a catch at 134 yards (402 feet). Surprisingly the pair are not dog and owner. The owner, Lara Sorensen, noticed her pup had a talent for catching, so she introduced Davy to champion frisbee thrower Rob McLeod…and the rest is now captured in Guinness book history.

Wash time

By That's life

Coloured wash

I think everyone has had a washing machine malfunction once in their lives. This cartoon was inspired after a recent wash where I placed a rusty brown towel in the wash with the family’s white socks. Surely towels are colour fast, I thought as I shoved the contents into the front loader. Personally, I don’t mind pink socks. Not sure the like was shared; so I kindly offered family members to take on the rewarding responsibility of washing. No uptake… I can only conclude that they don’t really mind pink socks after all.

Do you have a washing machine malfunction story to share?
