The lass behind Young, Fat and Fabulous is Gabi, and I’ve known her for quite a few years on this here internets! I’m really stoked that her blog is enjoying such success, and very honoured that she asked if I’d like to be a YFF girl of the moment. Daww!

When I posted some more of my images that poked gently at whimsy, Daydream Lily thought they were hilarious and posted them on her blog – which is full of whimsy!

You can buy these as prints now! Click on any of these images or head over here to buy one.

The chordae tendineae, or heart strings, are cord-like tendons that connect the papillary muscles to the tricuspid valve and the mitral valve in the heart. This is another new illustration, based on a little gesture Nick did the other week. You see, he is quite susceptible to having his heart strings tugged by tv shows, and one evening he did a demonstration of how one would tug on their own heart strings. It was so adorable I had to draw it…

Miss @Makalita liked it so much she bought a canvas print of it and kindly took a photo upon its arrival! It looks great, I’m always impressed with the Red Bubble print quality.

At School

I was going to be a teacher until I actually started teaching. I saw schools cramming information into kids’ heads and I saw those kids struggling with that. Why can’t we teach them what they want to know, of things they have an actual aptitude for?!

Correspondence Cinema

This one is easy. Web cams?! Video phones?! The future is here… unfortunately ;)

Hearing The Newspaper

We not only have screen readers for visually impaired computer users but pod casts as well!

Phonographic Message

My very own personal bane – voice messages and telephones… ugh!

A Curiosity

I honestly can’t remember the last time I saw a horse in its natural environment. They’re trotted out (ha!) for entertainment these days rather than utilised as transportation or simply left to their own free will.

A Rescue

In Australia we have the Royal Flying Doctor Service for rural areas, as well as the CareFlight Group – a helicopter based service for coastal and sea search and rescue missions.

A Chemical Dinner

Of all the illustrations, this rung true the most. We live in an age wherein most of us have no idea where our food is sourced from. Most of it is bog full of chemicals, colouring, preservatives and flavour enhancers. It’s kind of ridiculous if you reflect on it for too long, and makes you more than a little paranoid about what you put in your mouth!
