The adventure continues...
Have a look at some recent unrelated bar sketches and drawings for my current project, an Arabian Nights inspired short story for Graphic Classics. I'll tell you more about it in a bit... I hope the weather's great wherever you are, and that your summer's even better! And here's a drawing I did for Madrid's Expomanga in Solidarity with Japan. All my best, Lance Tooks

I will one day find out which bars it is you hang out in - though whether to go ogle the customers or to avoid them, I haven't yet decided!
You're welcome to join me anytime... while I sketch them you can write about them!
