Chris, who I’ve had the pleasure of sitting next to for a couple of years at mN (and who makes the most delightful cup of tea), crafts marvellously intricate sketches of whatever wanders into his mind on the trains to and from Liverpool each day and sticks them up on his site, sketchybeast.com. Balancing ridiculous prolificacy with masterfully craftmanship and a flair for twisted Victoriana and the unusual, each piece has a short but rich backstory hinting at much more to come and I, for one, want more.
