This is when I first started drawing these characters. They changed in appearance a bit over time.

'Neighbours, Gotta Have Good Neighbours'


Once, like Mary Shelley, author of 'Frankenstein', I had a nightmare about neighbors. Although some were nice others were monstrous. It is hard to imagine that any neighbors could be that annoying, nosy and entitled but many outlandish things happen in dreams. Eventually this surreal story morphed into the story of Lawnmower man versus Mick and Hop. 

Mick and Hoppa had been around since the late 80s and had also morphed from my own adventures and experiences. Mr. and Mrs. Lawnmower Man, the creations of nightmare were further influenced by my observations of everyday life and the incredible pettiness and stupidity of people.
