Hello! This is just a quick update to say, there’s more “Furber and the Mystic Woods” coming soon.
I’ve just been catching up with deadlines for some other illustration projects, which I’ll talk about in another post. (It’s pretty exciting though!) In the meantime, I’m getting back to work on Episode 15. There’s still a lot of drawing to do…

I just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who has been supporting “Furber and the Mystic Woods”. I’ve really enjoyed making and sharing this webcomic.
Thank you for your patience too. I’m aware that sometimes there can be some large gaps between episodes. Unfortunately, the illustrations take a very long time, but I’ve always loved drawing (especially the fiddly bits!) It’s my favourite part of the process and it brings me a lot of joy!
On a final note, I know a lot of people are struggling at the moment. This webcomic is for you. I promise to make this little corner of the internet as safe, uplifting, and as hopeful as possible. My wish is to create a sanctuary for anyone who needs it…
Don’t forget to shine your light today. Your kindness makes a difference

Energetic, spontaneous, and playful, Frizzle the Mosspainter loves going on adventures with Furber. She’s incredibly creative and imaginative, but she can easily lose her focus. She is quick to take charge and feels emotions very deeply. When she feels sad, she turns into “Drizzle” and her dress turns blue.
Frizzle first appears in episode two of “Furber and the Mystic Woods”

Frizzle is based on my partner, Liz Lowson. Liz is just as imaginative, creative, and bouncy as Frizzle! Liz writes books about bears (which I illustrate). I highly recommend reading her stories. They are amazing!
