Considering how terrible your ancestors were, Lew, you turned out pretty OK.

Your illustrations are always good, this is actually exceptional in my view!

You need very little text here Lewis as it’s so brilliantly illustrative. Love the arthritic hands.

A little cosmetic dentistry and ......... he'd still be terrifying! Very much better off back in his grave - but as always, brilliantly drawn, with the typical Lew touches of detail that bring it all to life.

At least he’s got his own choppers….

A terrifying character Lew, bet you have many more for your book.

Posted by Carole Swingler on Mon 11 May 19:51:42

Thanks once again for your generous and encouraging comments.

He is just itching to come out of the frame.

Posted by John Kinsella on Mon 11 May 23:00:06

I can see that this poor couple didn't stand a chance Lewis! Of course they would turn out wrong 'uns with these ancestors.

Posted by Sandra Kennedy on Tue 12 May 02:32:46

Can't wait to see this book in it's full glory Lewis with all these fantastic characters.

Posted by Val Kenyon on Tue 12 May 14:20:02

For the book I'm illustrating. A dodgy ancestor who rises from the grave. The book is in square format, there will be text alongside this.

About the Artist

Lewis Cooper

Self taught. Love drawing. Like to make pictures up, without using reference pics, often in cartoon style. I do other pictures where I do use reference. I'm knocking on a bit, born in 1940 in Greenwich, London. Retired, and loving it.
