That’s the beauty of Billy’s work - it radiates his humour and personality. It is honest, and true, and uncontrived, just like its creator. His self- deprecating reaction to being referred to as ‘an artist’ (we’re sure we heard the words “ pretentious pish ” being muttered good-naturedly) isn’t false modesty - he genuinely feels blessed that others want to own the drawings he does out of pure love and enjoyment. “It takes a little bit of the inside of you and puts it somewhere else.” In Billy’s case, that ‘little bit’ equates to an inhuman amount of charisma and warmth, the sheer force of which can only truly be appreciated by witnessing the effect he has on those who meet him.
