  Embrace Evolution. Adapt our diet. After the coronavirus malarky we are going to have to evolve. We need to review the situation. Our behavioural patterns have got to change. It would be preferable to emerge more sentient species or we are really are in for a hard time. By that I mean that coronavirus is a symptom of the far greater problem of human stupidity, cupidity and selfishness… Illustration by rob@flamingpencil.com Social distancing may be the only way forward. It may require that we permanently live in small, isolated family groups. The whole international hive mentality that has emerged will disintegrate. Are we are all brothers? Forget it. No matter what tune the kum-ba-ja brigade sings, it has always been every man for himself. The future will most likely force us to fundamentally rethink that.  Since we are in a coronavirus lockdown and you have oodles of time, why not go and see more of my work?

Now being a responsible adult is to stay at home and do nothing. But isolating yourself with your family is like living in a fishbowl. Loving someone is suddenly not being touchy, yet everyone is in your face. I’m loving the way the Coronavirus lockdown is turning our world upside down and outside in! Interesting times… Illustration by rob@flamingpencil.com I submitted this cartoon to the  Professional Cartoonists Org.  as part of a ‘toon challenge. The theme was simply: “Goldfish” It will be interesting to see how my work stacks up against better, more experienced artists. I find the humour, subtlety and brilliant insights of British Cartooning very inspiring. I’ve always been told to dumb my ideas down and aim for the lowest common denominator.

This latest panic in the world is going to leave the world completely changed. After the restart, I predict the demographics of nations will be altered, beliefs shattered, understandings purified, values tested, behaviours refreshed and unworthy systems laid to waste. Illustration by rob@flamingpencil.com My hope is that when the dust settles the world will have made a fresh start. Those among us who were most fortunate will see themselves in a new light of unmerited favour and deep gratitude. I would like to see unaccountable, greedy multinational corporations disposed of and replaced by responsible, low-environmental impacting local industries. Humanity will emerge wiser, more humane and gentler on the earth and her resources. I believe now is the time that it could happen. That could be the silver lining to this whole dark cloud we all face; Spaceship Earth and all her inhabitants will enjoy a more considerate, peaceful and prosperous future. That is the beacon I have set my ship to...
