What have you done / what are you doing?

Always been interested in cartoon work.

Have produced educational comics for over 5 years now with publishers inHeritage. Comics provide not only a window to the past and future but enables the kids of all ages and competence to participate with the adventures and learn something in the process.

What excites you about comics?

Comics are a superb way of presenting difficult subjects to children 8 to 11 years. I always get a kick out of the kid's responses to our comic work.

What excites you about science?

Science has always excited me since my fascination with subjects dealt by The Eagle, Look and Learn and Knowledge, all ground breaking publications from the early '50s and '60s. At that time 'outer space; was such

a major topic, not only in scientific journals of the time but comics too.
