Woodrow Phoenix is a British comics artist and writer who also works in the fields of editorial illustration, graphic design, font design and children's books. He is known for his experimentation with illustrative and graphic styles, offering up an incongruous mix of the cute and the sinister. His graphic story "End of the Line" first appeared to much praise in The Brighton Book, a mixed media anthology in association with The Brighton Festival. Woodrow is the author of the much-acclaimed Rumble Strip, pushing the construction and narrative possibilities of the comic strip in an entirely new direction while exploring the complicated psychology of the relationship between people and cars. He is co-editor of Nelson, a collective graphic novel with 54 creators, published by Blank Slate. In November 2011, as part of the British Council Dickens 2012 celebrations, Woodrow Phoenix is working with emerging artists in Argentina to re-invent Dickens’ urban observations on the streets of Buenos Aires.
