Interview with the cover designer
JAMES MCNAMARA
I can tell with my scarily accurate powers of deduction (and from your email address) that you're from Australia James. G'day mate and other stereotypical words. How's it going?
Very clever, yes I am Australian and I’m doing great.
How long have you been over here? Is it any good?
Middle of 2008 is when I arrived. I love it here, I don’t think I’ll be going back anytime soon.
How many sketch books do you go through in your average five week cycle?
Not too many actually, I seem to be a very slow draftsman, or so I’m told.
Do you do drawing full time?
I wish! I’m actually a bit jobless ha ha.
Did you know that in some parts of America a 'chuckle' is the name for a bit between a pigs bumhole and tail?
I do now.
That may or may not be true - I saw it on 30 Rock. What can you see if you look to your right?
All my clothes - they’re scattered everywhere. And a TV.
So I hear you're looking for a house/flat - what/where/who you looking for?
I sure am. I’m looking for a flat share, east London and with basically anyone who will take me.
Where can we see more of your work?
All my drawings can be seen at
my blog or my
website.
