Another bit from the large scale #comic I worked on with @rafmuseum’s for their brand-new Building 69 about certified badass edith maude cook. Turn-of-the-century lady aviators were AN AESTHETIC.

Here’s one of the full comic I created for the RAF Museum’s new exhibition space about the history of parachuting featuring William Newall and his fantastic moustache (plus some utterly terrifying airborne antics).

“Towards an Unknown Region” for the Windhover series.

I am not spectacularly religious, but one of my prized possessions is a copy of my dad’s college poetry book, with his notes for Gerard Manley Hopkins’s “Windhover”. There is something so free about that poem. Reading it, I have the same sense of peace that I feel watching swallows dance across blue sky. It’s a blue poem—blue like heaven, like the way Renaissance artists used lapis lazuli to represent the divine. Blue, like joy is sometimes.

“(To Christ our Lord)

I caught this morning morning’s minion, king- dom of daylight’s dauphin, dapple-dawn-drawn Falcon, in his riding Of the rolling level underneath him steady air, and striding
High there, how he rung upon the rein of a wimpling wing
In his ecstasy! then off, off forth on swing, As a skate’s heel sweeps smooth on a bow-bend: the hurl and gliding Rebuffed the big wind. My heart in hiding
Stirred for a bird, – the achieve of, the mastery of the thing!

Brute beauty and valour and act, oh, air, pride, plume, here Buckle! AND the fire that breaks from thee then, a billion
Times told lovelier, more dangerous, O my chevalier! No wonder of it: shéer plód makes plough down sillion
Shine, and blue-bleak embers, ah my dear, Fall, gall themselves, and gash gold-vermilion.”
