His style reflects his self-professed fondness of "deadpan comedy, flat dialogue, things happening offstage and impressive characters".[4] Others note that his work "combines pathos with the farcical"[5] and exhibits "a casual reduction of visual keys into a more rudimentary drawing style"[6] CareerGauld is best known for his three major publications: The Gigantic Robot, Goliath and You're All Just Jealous of My Jetpack. He has also authored a number of smaller-scale books such as Guardians of the Kingdom, Robots, Monsters etc., Hunter and Painter and his cartoon Move to the City, which ran weekly in London's Time Out in 2001-2002. Gauld studied illustration at Edinburgh College of Art - where he first started to draw comics "seriously"[7] - and the Royal College of Art. At the Royal College of Art, he worked with friend Simone Lia.[8] Together they self-published the comics First and Second under their [https://web.archive.org/web/20090918055432/http://www.cabanonpress.com/ Cabanon Press], which they started in 2001.[9] (The two volumes were subsequently published together by Bloomsbury Publishing in 2003, as Both.) As part of commercial projects, Gauld has done some animation work; in an interview, he commented that "[c]omics are a lot of work but animation... was too much.")[10] His books are now published by Drawn and Quarterly and he regularly produces cartoons and illustrations for The New Yorker (including cover art),[11][12] The New York Times, The Guardian and New Scientist.[13] In a 2012 interview, Gauld revealed that he had started work on a book that was even longer than Goliath (which was not You're All Just Jealous of My Jetpack).[14] InfluencesIn a 2011 interview, Gauld listed his "Cartooning heroes": William Heath Robinson, Gary Larson, Roz Chast, Richard McGuire, Ben Katchor, Daniel Clowes, Chris Ware and Jochen Gerner.[15] Personal lifeGauld grew up in the countryside in northern Scotland,[16] and has said that he had always wanted to be involved with something creative related to drawing.[17] He now lives in London with his wife, artist Jo Taylor, and his children.[18] While his full-length book Goliath is based on the eponymous biblical figure, Gauld is not religious.[19] Bibliography
