This illustration was originally done to accompany a written piece that appeared on the quite excellent Lovely Left Foot. Originally I wanted to try and work Barnes nickname ‘Digger’ into the main illustration itself.
However, after various illustrations of JCB’s (John Charles Barnes) and caterpillar tracks churning up the touchline I felt that a minimal approach would probably be the better option. So instead I opted for a play on words as part of the title and a traditional portrait of the man himself.
