Recently on Facebook, I was looking at a piece of work by one of my old tutors. I mentioned that he really should start a blog to profile his work, and he asked me how he would do that given that he was such a ‘Dinosaur’. Andy Hawkins was my illustration tutor on my Foundation course at Amersham College of Art in the 80s’. I was in my teens, and Andy could have been no more than in his late twenties at the most, even possibly 30, and I think recently graduated from the RCA.  I should mention by the way, that Andy is an amazing illustrator and currently lives and works in Saltburn-by-the-Sea in Yorkshire (and not a Dinosaur). Anyway, it got me to thinking how dramatically the landscape has changed for artists since we both graduated.
