Ben has a pencil…

Think Again’s rather lovely and colourful logo was designed by the Bristol artist and illustrator Ben Newman. When we first set up the company, we looked long and hard at logo designs, but Ben’s quirky use of colour and free-hand lettering stood out from the corporate herd.

We were also secretly hoping that Ben would soon become the new Damien Hirst and we could sell the original logo artwork and retire to the Caribbean.  There’s no sign of that happening just yet, but Ben’s still doing rather well for himself.

Now, he’s got a book out – Ouroboros – a three colour, wordless cartoon which “juxtaposes brutal violence with ecstatic comic exuberance”.  Ben himself says it’s a book about life …”that which is forever done, but which may not be undone..both chicken and the egg… but also Sunday dinner”.

If that sounds like your thing, then you can order it from Nobrow Press.

Limited edition toys featuring Ben’s creation “The Dicephaly Brothers” are also available, and are bound to be collectors items.

Order a book, a toy or some personalised artwork. When Ben’s knocking out jewel-encrusted Dicephaly Brothers for a million pounds a time, you can join us in the Caribbean.
