'In recent years I have found myself working increasingly in sequences of drawings which explore subjects and techniques which interest me. These sequences are the origins of the QB Papers; they vary in approach and tone, and between reality and fantasy. But I hope that in each of them in its own way will appeal to anyone who likes looking at drawings. This is rather like the conversation pictures in that it shows the positions that people get into when reading - but it's more specific and "observed" in that it shows different characters and their individual reactions.
