Yours sincerely, James Squires

Beautiful Bird

Secret Box

Hello, world. First post-earthquake blog update. I was going to draw an earthquake comic but then I didn't- not because it was too soon but because I would probably just end up drawing something involving terrible earthquake puns. 

Lots of green... so it doesn't look too much like this I guess. It kinda does anyway though.

This one goes out to the city of Christchurch. The garden city. Get well soon

5. He is dead
