Inktober 2016: ME Week 4.

Every October, artists from all over the world take on the Inktober 
drawing challenge buy doing one ink drawing a day for the entire month. 
This year I've set myself a personal project to coincide 
with this wonderful creative event.

On each day during October, I will be drawing a scene from
 my local area: The Medway Towns in Kent. I was born, and still live, 
in Gillingham and I thought that this years Inktober would provide me
 a golden opportunity to celebrate and explore my surroundings. 
All of the places I have drawn hold some kind of significance for me.

 Why is the project titled 'ME'? 
Because ME is the postcode for the Medway Towns;
it also stands for 'me' as a person.

All of my images are posted daily on my instagram
and twitter accounts.

If you are from The Medway Towns, hopefully you will 
recognise some of my sketches. If not, Welcome to Medway. 

Enjoy!

Demoncon 12


Friends, on Sunday the 2nd of October I shall be appearing the Demoncon 12
comic convention in Maidstone, Kent. I'll be there with copies of my book 
The Wormgler and displaying a collection of my artwork, which will also be 
for sale. But, it's not all about 'me'. Demoncon is a fantastic, friendly, family 
based, entertaining event. There's certainly something for everyone... 
and much, much more. I highly recommend this wonderful, joyous event 
packed full of talent and fun. 

I'm very excited to be there and to meeting you all. 

Enjoy!

The Wormgler: Out Now.


I'm thrilled to announce that my book, The Wormgler
has now been published. To purchase a signed copy, 
please head over to my shop or contact me via email.
Thank you for your kind support.
Enjoy!

David Frankum presents The Wormgler, a tale of hope, of the 
balance between light and dark and the mysteries within ourselves 
and the universe. It raises questions about our place in the world, 
but leaves the reader to draw their own conclusions.
Each beautifully illustrated panel is cleverly constructed,
 with its unique style belying the powerful themes within.
 Thought provoking and uplifting, each viewing of 
The Wormgler offers something new to discover.
Originally presented one panel per day via Twitter, this publication 
collects The Wormgler into a very special limited edition volume.
With a foreword written by Sebastian Stobbs (Conquer Gear) and
an afterword by Liz Norman (Frothy Betty).
