Apologies for the lack of blog posts lately! I have been super busy with my crayons and so internet postings have fallen by the wayside. Just a quick one to mention a feature by Photoshop Creative Magazine on myself, Louise Brangwin, Dan Burrows and EJ Miles (all part of the House of Aces illustration collective) showcasing four pages of our work in their latest edition out now! There is also a free podcast of the interview found on the Photoshop Creative website that includes lots of uhms and arrs from myself! (I think I should stick to crayons and not venture into radio!) oh dear! haha

Back to the paint box!

March 2, 2009

Just a quick colour study I’m working on …can’t say too much about it just now, but it’s great to be able to dust off my Gouache and get back to some painting!

Just got this through the post today! a copy of the book “Wherever Nina Lies” written by Lynn Weingarten and published by Point with my illustrations running though out the book. It was great to see it in the flesh (as it were!) and many thanks to Lynn for sending me a copy, as it’s only available in the States you can order it here!

Illustrated Typography

December 29, 2008

Hand drawn type based on the traditional children’s tale. I wanted to create the lettering out of gnarled tree branches and add elements such as keys, locks and birds and have them hidden amongst the trees. I will post a larger scale version on my website soon!
