Perks of working in a school - free life drawing classes! Little bit rusty today, but looking forward to getting my skillz back.  Oh yes, skillz with a zee.

2 x 10 minute poses - cartridge paper and charcoal.

Thought I'd try a little cut-out experimentation a la Brittney Lee! 

I made this for my lovely and talented friend Laura as a birthday present :) Obviously it's still early days and I have a long way to go, but I think for a first try it turned out fairly well... what do you think?  

It was nice to have a break from Photoshop for a while and work on something more tangible - I think there'll be more to come!

We're going on tour!

Little something I did whilst getting excited about the up and coming Jipsy tour, in which I am miscellaneous instrumentalist/ artworker :D 

Deep Sea Discovery...

It's finally finished! Part 2 in the adventures of my as yet un-named intrepid explorer! Stay tuned for more exciting escapades... next stop the Wild West :D

Exclusive!

Here is a little sneak preview of the piece I am currently working on - not long now before it's revealed! Coral reefs make me happy :)

Adventure Awaits...

Quick! Get away! Those men look like they're trying to steal that really important book that you haven't secured very well!

Trying something new, with much more detail, to become part of my new portfolio - exciting! :D This is the first of many (hopefully) Illustrations to feature this chap... he gets around...

Location: Indian Jungle

So recently I've forced myself to practice background work.  To my great surprise, it's not actually as boring as I'd presumed! At points I was even quite enjoying myself...

Here is my first true attempt at an imagined background - an indian rainforest for an illustration I've been working on for quite some time but never finished.  

Because it needed a background in it.
