Simply a collection of character designs I have been working on.

Flâneur is a French term meaning ‘stroller’ or ‘loafer’ used by nineteenth-century French poet Charles Baudelaire to identify an observer of modern urban life. The flâneur carried a set of rich associations: the man of leisure, the idler, the urban explorer, the connoisseur of the street. Some modern flaneurs are Sophie Calle, Will Self, Laura Oldfield Ford and Iain Sinclair.

The image recalls the attempt by Tony Benn (then Post Master General) and illustrator David Gentleman to remove the Queen’s head from the design of postage stamps, as they felt that its inclusion often caused problems for designers in terms of space for their work. This also appealed to Benn’s socialist leanings and he encouraged Gentleman to submit his designs without the monarch. 

Both Benn and Gentleman fought hard for this radical change to stamp design suggesting that the Queen’s head be replaced with the words “Great Britain” or “U.K. Postage” However by the end of 1965 the Queen, having initially entertained the idea, decided in no uncertain terms that she wanted her head to remain on stamps.

 “Churchill's Egg” was a sort of pressurised sarcophagus designed to safely house Winston Churchill on high-altitude flights.

Churchill's doctors were concerned about the 69-year-old prime minister’s heart. Unpressurised cabins (the norm at that time) simply wouldn’t cut it, and a bulky oxygen mask was to be avoided. So the Institute of Aviation Medicine designed him a pressurised chamber with an elaborate intercom system. Here, Churchill could relax, work, sleep and of course smoke during flight.
