Mr Spider in Progress

 I am illustrating a children's book at the moment and here is one of the characters that I am working on. I think that I have changed his color scheme about 20 times now, he has been a tricky one but I am now about to clean him up and finishing him of and then I will I start working on some Panda's doing work out.

Wish you all a nice Sunday!

New Limited Edition Print

I have a new Limited edition print out, it's called Sleeping Owl and is a mixed media design created with acrylic paint and photography. It's in a limited edition of 50 and each print is signed and numbered and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. The prints measure 59.4 x 84.1 cm and is printed on my favorite paper;  Hahnemuhle German Etching Paper.

It will be available in my Online Shop from November.

Work in Progress: Imse Vimse Spindel

It's Sunday and I am working on some illustrations for Imse Vimse Spindel/Eensy Weensy Spider that will be in a children's book.  I am playing around with the lay out and the colors at the moment, which will set the style and the color scheme of the rest of the book so, this if far from finished and I have a bunch of spiders with umbrellas that also want to be in the book waiting for their turn.

I really enjoy making characters so I am very glad that this project came my way. Now I should get back to my spiders, have a nice Sunday!

A cooky beetle and a grumpy Mac

I am battling my precious Mac at the moment, it started to have a life of it's own and I am

 a bit nervous about how I would be able to do illustration without a computer.

Please, please precious computer do not die on me.

Design Souffle

It's London Design Week this week and I am running around checking out exhibitions and happenings while enjoying free drinks...

I love London Design Week, there's some really mind blowing design projects out there so if you happen to be in town - don't miss it!

Pssst... some of my work is being featured over at Design Souffle

Another lazy Sunday

Had a great Sunday, cleaned the flat and went to the Colombian flower market and bought orchids and had a coffee with the super talented Mina Milk.

Man and the Ocean - work in Progress

I am trying to use the photo I took in Broadstairs of the man standing on the pier in my work, this is where I am at right now so it is still work in progress but there's just something about that photo that I really like. Next week I will start working on a songbook for children that I am quite excited about, I have never illustrated a book before.
