China vs Columbus
Did the Chinese get to the new world before Columbus? A Q in the Q&A column for BBC History Magazine that I'm illustrating from January. It seems that maps from the time (which I referenced for the pic) show that the Chinese visited many places in the world before Columbus' 'discoveries'. Have a look at www.1421.tv if you're intrigued.

Big Picture 7
Here's one of the latest illos for Big Picture 7 for Wellcome Trust. Following hot on the heals of Big Picture 6 (see below) this time the subject is Drug Development. An idea was needed to show the different ways a drug will protect a cell. Some repel attackers, some fight them inside the cell and some protect the core of DNA. Seemed to lend itself to a castle idea! It'll be out in December and the pdf will be downloadable on their website (in my links list) along with the other 6!

Come to Cumbernauld
I've just completed a map commissioned by the Scottish Wildlife Trust for the friends of Cumbernauld Glen. Haven't done a map for a while and boy was this one complicated! Hopefully it'll attract people to a more picturesque area of Cumbernauld (made semi famous in Gregory's Girl). There'll be slate waymarkers set into the paths around the area too. Never had images set in stone before!

McMerchandise U.S.
For complicated reasons (i.e having to send a t-shirt to Australia) I've now opened a U.S. version of my t-shirt site. Seems this site has better options for printing and with the exchange rate being so good it's about the same (if not better) prices as the EU site. Have a look at the McMerchandise links!

Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby!
On March 23rd we welcomed a very small Ruby May McBeth into the world! After 6 weeks in the neonatal ward she's home with us at last! Now I have to try and do some work in between the feeds, the visits, the screaming, the sleepless nights, the nappy changes......
Maybe I can start her off early with the colouring in. 'Ruby, here's how a dip pen works....'
