Terraforming Titan: Way down by the Methane Sea. 

I struggled to decide on a title for this: If someone suggests a better one, I might change it.

Possession is 9/10th's  of the Law.

Just a little update. Long story short. Someone invited me to enter a story in a competition, which begins on 15-5-15. I have spent the last week or so (interrupted by an operation) working on this, which has turned out to be a little longer story than I first expected. The story is nearly complete, (tidying up, proof reading and additional artwork remaining) and I will publish it here in 3 parts on Wednesday Thursday and Friday. In the mean time here's another plate from the story. Emrys, surprises Ariol. The sixth, and for now, final part of The UFO in my Garden, will follow Next week.

I knocked up this digital painting of hitch. So I thought I'd include one of my favourite Hitch slaps with it. On miracles. I’ll grant you that it would possible to track the pregnancy of the woman Mary who’s mentioned about three times in the Bible and to show there was no male intervention in her life at all but yet she delivered herself of a healthy baby boy. I can say—I don’t say that’s impossible. Parthenogenesis is not completely unthinkable. It does not prove that his paternity is divine and it wouldn’t prove that any of his moral teachings were thereby correct. Nor, if I was to see him executed one day and see him walking the streets the next, would that show that his father was God or his mother was a virgin or that his teachings were true, especially given the commonplace nature of resurrection at that time and place. After all, Lazarus was raised, never said a word about it. The daughter of Jairus was raised, didn’t say a thing about what she’d been through. An...

I really rather liked Firefly, one of the better SF series from the time when the US TV execs were just giving up on SF in favour of the much cheaper to make reality TV. Or really pared down SF that nobody actually wanted to watch. This is based on my favourite moment of the film Serenity. Well that's a small fib, my favourite moment is the look on the operatives face as he demands somebody fire. But that isn't as much fun to draw and paint, even digitally: so here's what has him so hot under the collar. Because Wash's finest moment follows, there could only be one title.

OK,  so it's like this: things felt a bit like I was running like mad, and not only standing still, but going backwards.  Worse still amid all the election coverage; if that were not bad enough; there is still the constant stream of reporting of evil acts done in pursuit of power. And, as is my wont, I thought I'd write a poem. Put those feelings into words. The first line was easy, "When I dispair." But then all I could think of were the words someone else had already followed them with.  And eventually one has to bow to the inevitable, it has been said better by someone else so just quote them. Well I went half a step further than that, I sketched a portrait too. “When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem  invincible, but in the end, they always fall.  Think of it  always.” M. K. Ghandi. ...

Click here to read  All Parts I awoke to alien sounds of hammering from the garden, but thought hurrying to the railway station to by the paper was too much effort. I Decided to slip into the daily routine of life, working eating sleeping, serenly as all mankind has for thousands of years. There was no real reason my life should change, just because there was a UFO in my garden. But in my garden the hammering and stirring went on as it had all night. I was worrying what interest this might attract from the neighbours. Not least Jamie, who had insatiable curiosity. It seemed the professor didn't sleep, especially when he had something to work on. I ate breakfast, and made myself a cup of strong coffee, before walking over to the UFO sipping as I went. The area under the spaceship with my flattened beans in it, was looking overgrown, the light was reaching it through the ships cloaking device, so it was all growing, it was just restricted in which directions it could grow. To m...
