Welcome to my temporary website. A new site is on its way and this will show a full range of my work. At present I am able to include only a few examples, along with contact details, but further samples can be seen under Members’ Portfolios (B/Besley) on the following sites:
I have worked as a cartoonist for 30 years, providing cartoons on a regular basis to a variety of outlets, including
- postcards (Dixon’s, Hinde, Salmon...) - school books (OUP, CUP, Nelson Thorne, Macmillan, Longman, MGP...) - general books (NWP, Birlinn, Canongate...) - magazines (Country Talk, Country Life, The Oldie...) - journals (Case Notes, Cabinet Maker...) - newspapers (IOW Weekly Post, IOW County Press...) - business reports (Audit Commission, local councils, Health Authority...)
I have also written and illustrated a number of books of my own, including Scotland/Ireland/Skye for Beginners, The Cannae Sutra and several cartoon collections. Do give me a call -
