Certainly worth thinking about doing a feature on his work Lew , it’s the artwork we would be looking at and not necessarily concentrating on the message it’s giving .

Not sure about that Dixie.  I think his work is brilliant, but it's very in your face with bad language and confrontational subject matter...that's what he's about.

I will be guided by you Lew  as you obviously know his work far better than I do and if you think it’s too much for the forum then we will stay away from his work.

Excellent, I'll be able to contribute to that because I have a LOT of books, and a lot of illustrations.  Not all of those are online, which means I shall have to try scanning some of them: handily, Microsoft has disabled my printer/scanner and camera (hence no posts lately) but I think I might have worked out what they've done and how to correct it.  Think and hope - why don't they just leave things alone or, if they are going to update and initiate, not manage to render one's programmes and hardware unresponsive......... I'm too OLD for this stuff!

I’m looking forward to it as well Robert  , I bought a book recently of twenty century British book illustrator it had some two thousand named , I obviously won’t get them all on the forum in a week .  I shall select some well known illustrators and some less known ones.
