The Illustrated Dyspraxicon 01

An autoethnographic exploration of Dyspraxia and its associated traits and symptoms. This is an initial exploratory research document to discover the parameters and direction of further research in this style. It contains rough sketches and visual thinking only. There is no finished artwork as the the research project is still actively work in progress. As such this is a discussion document for further development and collaboration.

Secondary Education Drawings

NB: all produced before the invention of the

internet

12 pages of a sketchbook (early 1980s)

'Impossible Misconceptions'

Evidence of taking things literally, literally;

and some hints at obsessive behaviours.

History of Comics (mid 1980s)

2 pages of a 4 page illustrated history of comic

strips I researched and created.

Dynamite Gags (mid 1980s)

5 x A3 pages of gags (most of which aren't that

funny) using only a character and a stick of

dynamite. More hints at a desire for exhaustive

completeness and obsessive tendencies.

Typewriter Portrait (mid 1980s)

Another slightly obsessive picture, created on a

typewriter, drawing with letters.

Quavers (mid 1980s)

I loved playing with the sounds of words (I

still do). Here's another example.

MacBad (mid 1980s)

I decided to adapt Macbeth as a 24 page comic

book. Who did I think I was! It's pretty awful to

reread, but here's the front cover.
