Riding on the train, the other day, I drew, in my sketch book, this picture. My sketch book contains numerous portraits, scenes and cartoon ideas. I had begun, a while back, drawing a woman called Angelique, who modelled for the portrait group, but I left the nose and eyes and begun anew. This time I went back to the unfinished drawing and made the nose and eyes into a male angel. The gender of Biblical angels is not set but suggests males, more than anything, but with a hint of androgyny. Other angels are a 'Hellish' mess of wings and eyes.
This is a possible cover for a zine I am working on. Mick and Hoppa get a job from the pope who needs astronauts for his Vatican space program, designed to find, not only Goldilocks planets but God's planet. Things don't go entirely to plan and Mick, in particular, causes chaos.
