Strawberry Fields

This illustration is for Gen Ryan my former class mate at ECA. She is putting together a series of images based on the song Strawberry Fields forever by the Beatles. I didnt really know what to do for it so i just created this Strawberry monster that eats people. I am wanting to get back into the routine of making up characters so this was good practice.

Woof Woof

I have finished the 11 images for the short childrens story about Woof Woof and the pirates from Eel Pie Island. The story was written by Stephen Tague who asked me to illustrate the text. It was great fun as i think the characters are really enjoyable to draw. I think it is a really nice story and i hope it will be a success in the future. There may also be more Woof Woof storys in the pipeline so keep a look out on my blog for details.

The Skinny

Hi i recently got to the last three of the Skinny T-Shirt competition. I unfortunately didn't win but i did get my image put in this months magazine with my website details. I hope this will give me a boost in site views. It is a good thing to put in my portfolio so i am really happy with how it went. I think i will try to enter a lot more competitions in the future. Here is a couple of drawings i have been playing about with recently.

Skinny T-Shirt competition

These are 3 designs i have been working on for a competition. It is for a Scottish magazine called the Skinny. It is looking for 2 designs to put on T-Shirts. I am not sure which ones i will send so any feedback would be good. Thanks to the world of Bloggers.

Book project

These are some character designs i have made for a new book project i am working on. These are the first draughts so they could change when i show them to the author. Lets hope he likes them.

Medusa project

Here are some more images for my book project. The title of the the book is "Perseus and the quest for Medusa's head". I hope to design the layout in the next few weeks so that i can send it off to get printed.

Monsters

This image is just one in a series i plan to make on monsters. I am going to make a book about these creatures where i will write a short story on each of them.
















This image is for a text exchange project with a writer from Edinburgh University. The story he wrote was about a creature who lives in the mountains.
