Weird is good. At least that's what we like to tell ourselves when we occasionally end up in the bizarre-o world that is the r/hmmm subreddit.

A one of a kind view of the world expressed in drawings. You know that maxim, "A picture is worth a thousand words"? That is how I would summarise Miles Johnston's work.
