Here is a look at an editorial illustration commission I have just finished of a boxing kangaroo looking a little worse for wear, after a tough boxing bout. Traditionally the boxing kangaroo is a symbol often displayed prominently by Australian spectators at sporting events. It is an image that is widely considered Australia's sporting flag.

My illustration is to accompany an article discussing the tough time Australia is having in the global financial market at the moment. Hopefully this little guy has a good rest and finds his fighting spirit again really soon.
