A recent colour sample, unfortunately nothing came of the job :-( First time I've mixed painting with digital. I'm undecided whether it works or not. A bit more playing around methinks.

The Santa Trap

Was sorting out some files the other day and came across this sample I did a couple of years ago. So thought I'd pop it up.

Artisancam, an interesting look into how illustrator Sarah Dyer works.

Goldilocks

This is an image I did recently for Polka Theatre, London. Below is the image in their brochure, it's a bit of a shame the colour's haven't come out so well though.

Taking a stroll

I'm playing catch up with posts, so here are some pics from London a couple of months back. Strolling around Spitalfields, Brick Lane and Columbia Road. Haven't spent much time in these areas before now, so it was great to have a good look around. There's so much to see!

We all scream for ice-cream

Busy, busy busy, but enough time to have a sneaky break for some ice-cream! Luckily we have an award winning ice-cream shop at the end of our road :) I'm really liking their pots.

Exciting packages

Came home the other day to find a nice big package containing copies of my recent picture book to be published around September time I think by Carolrhoda Books. It's so strange to see it as a complete book, I'm pretty pleased with the way it turned out.

You can pre-order it here.

Finally!

These are a couple of my artworks that were part of The Art of Picture Books exhibition back in March. I've been meaning to put up some pics for ages but haven't been able to get very good photos of them so these two are the only ones out of the six worth showing!

The images are from a picture book I did for Carolrhoda Books published in 2005, I'm Not Afraid of This Haunted House by Laurie Friedman.
