Flyer for Anorak Magazine


Process, with our without line and speech bubble, hmm…)


Today I made this flyer for one of my absolute favourite magazines, ANORAK MAGAZINE, if you aren't familiar with them already then you should definitely check them out!

On July 10th, ANORAK MAGAZINE will be holding a two-hour workshop at YCN in Shoreditch, London, from 6.30 PM where Cathy Olmedillas, the Publisher and Producer of Anorak Magazine will take you through how she launched Anorak and how it evolved from a creative outlet to a business and share some tips on how to get started and also discuss your ideas. Great for anyone who is considering starting their own magazine.

That's it, my Thursdays at the Roller-skate Disco is finished wrapped up and ready to go to the On These Magic Shores exhibition at the O3 Gallery in Oxford with artists like Gemma Correll, Sarah Ray, Julia Pott, Kris Tate and Jamie Mitchell.

I had so much fun working on my piece, if I have time I will make a little animated monster disco.

But now it's time for dinner.

Mail Me Art 3

Photobucket

Burp.

Here's my submission to Mail Me Art 3, it became a burping monster.

It is time for the third round of Mail Me Art; "Mail Me Art: Short & Sweet". This exhibition and book launch will be at The Framers Gallery in London, 30th July - 3rd August.

There are more then 200 illustrators and artists from all over the world taking part so I am really looking forward to go down and see what everyone has done, maybe I will see you there?

Monsters & Coffee

I hate, hate, hate, hate being photographed and prefer to be on the other side of the camera. But I need some images of me at work for a new project so I asked Dani to help me and take some pics of me drawing and here are some of them, thank you Dani! I know it was not an easy task as I do everything to avoid being in a picture... which I think you can almost tell from my face expression above.

I have had a great day, had a coffee with the brilliant illustrator Danijela Dobric, (you should definitely check out her work if you aren't already familiar with it, if you click on her name there's a link to her website) and drew an army of monsters for a really fun project that I am working on, here you can see some of them;

This is just a ruff sketch,  I am not happy with this monster but love the face expression, looks so unbelievably lost, but I think this one might be a bit better;

That's it from me for now.

Hmm...

Here's another sneaky little monster but I can't seem to make up my mind, should he be green or blue, hmm...what do you think?

Oops, here's one on the loose

Here's one of the finished monsters and I think he is my favourite, let's call him Burt for now.

Monster Friday

Photobucket

Today I am a lucky girl and can do one of the things I love the most; surface design and drawing characters. Today's theme is monsters and the coffee pot is full, the play list is loaded, the sun is shining and I am really excited about a new project that I am involved with - I could not ask for a better Friday.

Here's a little sneak peek from my sketchbook and some work in progress, but I think that these monsters are way to well behaved and cute for me so I have to get back to my sketch book for some more wacky monsters, the kind that you would not like to have around your house.

Have a lovely weekend everyone!
