What need is there of an 'A Level' in art or for that matter a Foundation Course when you're young and arrogant enough to take these type of strained strivings to an interview panel at the Illustration dept. of Swindon Art College!
It was obvious that there wasn't a job for me drawing tanks, or anything else at the mediocre end of the ailing British comics industry. So Art College seemed to be an obvious refuge from the real world for a few years.
They weren't having it; in fact the youngest bloke on the panel was well acquainted with comics and seemed more disgusted than the others!
After that, most of 1987 became devoted to expanding my artistic outlook with a view to getting onto next year's Foundation Course at Cardiff Art College. Sadly, I succeeded but there was a further fling or two with the world's finest artform after receiving another jolt at UKCAC!
