Ahh the beautiful curve of those distinctive wings, or have they been lifted from a Typhoon?

The relentless pursuit of the Sunday Supps ‘Mints’ appalling standards continues…
The artist is given as Thomas Docherty, but the only artist of that name seems to be a children’s book illustrator, who does much better work than this oddity.
Anyone know if they are different people and / or more about the Mint’s artist?
