Last of the launch illustrations for the Kirkby Unemployment Centre project (for now). This one is about a wood-chip factory that was polluting the local area in the early 2000s (hence the dead fish) - and the protest campaign the KUC coordinated in response.
Illustration showing a group of protestors in protective masks holding dead fish and placards. They are protesting against the factory in the background which is polluting the area. Detail from an illustration showing a man in a gas mask and hi-vis vest holding a placard. He is protesting against a local factory which is polluting the area.

People of Worthing! Got a great idea for a comic but not sure how to draw it? Or maybe you love drawing characters but are struggling to come up with a story? Then book a place on "Making Comics for Beginners", my 10 week course starting this autumn at Heene Community Centre: tinyurl.com/ycyhf2u4
Promo poster for a course called "Making Comics For Beginners: How to Tell Stories with Pictures & Words". Poster contains four comic panels. The images in the panels are: 1. a cityscape, 2. close up profile of a man, 3. close up of a young woman, 4. two children running with a building in the background.

Had a go at drawing Tom Baker, probably got a bit too obsessed with the eyes... #drwho #drwhofanart

Another launch image for the Kirkby Unemployment Centre project. This one depicts a march - protesting against the closure of a local manufacturing plant, which took place on a very wet day in 1994.

Playing about with a redesign of an old character - those who remember my comics from around eight or nine years ago might recognise him?!?

More details from my mini comic about adventure playgrounds, made with Prof Ben Highmore at Uni of Sussex. Read the whole comic on my website: jaimehuxtable.com#/the-new-pla...

We'd love to make a whole graphic novel based on Ben's research - publishers out there, let us know if you're interested!
