Sterry Cartoons: A collection of music and animal cartoons by Hannah Sterry.
Noticed a face in the boyfriend’s bass and had to share!
I’d love to do a series of instrument photo-cartoons so if you reckon your instrument would make a good cartoon, send me a photo/link via twitter, facebook or my contact form and I’ll try to turn it in to a character and feature it on the facebook page!
Spread the word and lets see how much of the orchestra we can cover! 🙂
Sterry Cartoons have invaded Facebook, Google+ and Twitter too!

“Breves should not be called breves… especially when you’re a woodwind player and breving is blooming difficult.”
I realise this cartoon isn’t quite as accessible as some of my other music ones, because breves aren’t very commonly used, so here’s a chart briefly showing the note lengths (with the breve right at the top) and a link to wikipedia’s page on breves.
Agh! Don’t look!

Answer: Too far!
Yes, I have some more music cartoons for you and they’ll be available in my shop shortly (when I get round to it). There are more over on Sterry Cartoons facebook page.
In the meantime, it’s been an exciting few weeks and I haven’t blogged much, so here’s what’s been happening recently:
The Sterrys live music for Tuesday Night is Music Night at The Cottage Hotel have been a great success and we’ve been asked to continue through September! Earlier in August we (Hannah and John Sterry) also played there to raise money for Hope Cove Lifeboat and someone was kind enough to to take this photo:
It was a wonderful place to play, partly because the weather was so amazing and I managed to get a picture of the view from the terrace. It’s really lovely on sunny evenings on the Tuesday nights, because as we’re playing we can watch the sun setting over the sea – it’s beautiful.
I’m finally learning to drive after years of putting it off because of university and moving!
The Boyfriend Song now has a much better delivery and set of chords and I need to practice it to perfection!
My SketchBook is filling up really quickly and I’ve been talking to a local animator about possibly animating some of my cartoons!
Anyway… that’ll do for today, but I’ll keep you updated as this all progresses (when I find time to blog, that is).
Feel free to ask me any questions or just have a nice chat in the comments! 🙂
Less is more is a phrase that was repeated to me from a very early age, although this may have been because toddler-me was extremely messy and seemed to think that no wall should be free from gigantic crayon scribbles!
Now, I generally manage to keep my scribbles on paper, but I’m trying my luck with vector graphics in a futile attempt to clean up my act (and my cartoons). “Minimalism” is my very simple first attempt at drawing in Inkscape.
What do you reckon?
More cartoons from Hannah Sterry…

I got a tablet yesterday, so I’ve been trying to re-draw my old cartoons and had a few new ideas along the way. Anyway… here’s the new digital version of the Musical Compliments cartoon. Hope it makes a few of you music teachers and students chuckle! 😀
The cartoons reads:
“Liking the natural look!”
“Thanks! You’re looking pretty sharp yourself!”

I realise I haven’t blogged anything in a while. Basically I’m waiting for my mandolin strings and shiny new camera to arrive so I can mess with some more instruments and do some more photography.
In the meantime I’ve been drawing cartoons like this one:
Anyway, soon I should be back to regularly recording and uploading nice fun bits of music about pirates and zombies and zeppelins! 😀
