Whilst on tour in Canada in 2007, Billy was inspired by Montreal’s drizzling rain to buy some felt-tip pens and a sketchbook. Over time, his drawings of little islands became intricate yet honest shapes – and Born On A Rainy Day began.

The sixth release from the sell-out series reflects Billy’s idiosyncratic, no-holds-barred comedy. Black-and-white lines, Escher-esque surrealism and an increased use of colour are underpinned by a sense of liberation. His anonymous characters boast a charming simplicity.

Billy says: “I just want to keep honing the thing that I’ve got and make it better and better – that’s all. That’s the only ambition I feel."

This set includes all six framed titles:

• Malkie's Day Off
• Purgatory
• Rebel Without A Sword
• The Sausage Tree
• Three Teds
• Wooly Ruff

These artworks come displayed on deckle-edged Aquarelle Arches-Torchon 300gsm paper, elegantly float-mounted in handmade black paint and silver foil, pine and spruce frames.
