I was browsing the internet a couple of years ago and I came across a little character with a yellow t-shirt and a red cap. I thought he was pretty cool and used him as my avatar on Facebook and Twitter for a while. I didn’t think much more of it.
Then the other day I was browsing the Jibbering Art website to see what they had on offer and, lo and behold, I came across some prints by that same artist – Tom Lewis.
He was born in Birmingham and works as an artist and illustrator in Warwick. If asked how he’s ended up where he has he’ll tell you that

That’s Mr Tilly at the top there. Prints are available from his own site and from Jibbering Art.
An artistic legend before the age of 30 … visiting his website will unveil a whole new world of greetings cards, t-shirts, prints and originals.
