If this comic seems a bit out of place, I encourage you to get reacquainted with Chapter 2.
First up, Becky has a new, small and cheap painting for sale here, with the proceeds benefiting the World Wildlife Fund.
Secondly, thanks for your patience and continued patronage during our silent period. The time off from regular updates allowed us to complete the Tigerbuttah Golden Book in record time.
It also allowed us the time to put on the Tigerbuttah gallery show in Auckland, New Zealand. The exhibition, which is still on for the next few days at The High Seas, displays all the pages of the Golden Book in sequence, without words. The show then tours to Wellington on March 5th at Popup Gallery, which we will be attending!
Here are some photos from the Auckland show.
To say we were over-joyed at the turnout was a huge understatement!
Music for the show was provided by our amazing friends Bear Cat and their panda pop music!
The beautiful cupcakes are courtesy of our best friend Tamzen and her fabulous assistant Claire!
If you look at the cupcakes closely, you will see a number of comic references, such as our general love of beautiful toadstools, sunflowers and butterflies. The flower covered with a band-aid cupcakes are specifically in reference to this old comic of ours!
Now, I am not one to generally eat band-aids, but if they are made of icing atop delicious red velvet cupcakes…
Thanks again to everyone who came out and everyone who contributed to make the book (and the show) possible. Special thanks to Sophie & Nigel at High Seas, as well as Adrian Kinnaird and Andy Conlan for taking photos!
