Cards for Charity

Two of my Alice illustrations printed as greetings card for Medulawi. This is my girlfriends charity that provides education and nurses to Malawi. It is a great cause and the cards are really nice. 100% recycled, matt finsh.

Work in progress

Behance has a new 'Work in Progress' function. You can post iterations of your work as it progresses and show your process . . . and perhaps get some constructive feedback. I have a new project I am working on right now and am trying it out. Take a look. It is a pretty well designed feature and it is interesting to see how peoples work develops.  I do find though that getting any serious feedback and not just positive, 'pat on the back' comments is pretty tricky in most places on the web. It is really hard to find a forum for critical response. Working at home alone all the time can be very creatively isolating. It is great to have so many talented peoples work art your fingertip (thanks interweb) but nothing beats a bit of interaction and conversation.

Monkey King

Number 2

Ganesh

This is the first illustration I have done as the start of a new series to build an educational illustration portfolio to add range to my other children's book work. I am imagining a world religions and historical set as well as some more narrative work.

One for fun

Spot the difference

Before and After  (lighting and layering)

A quick revisit to this piece to try out a few things. I think perhaps I can go further . . . Don't want to over complicate the image but do want to lift the style a bit.

Badge Explosion

The Lindy Hop Fail Awards badges project I did recently exploded across the Lindy Hop scene via facebook and a number of blogs shortly after I posted it here. After hundreds of shares and thousands and thousands of views, I decided perhaps I would make some real badges to sell. They came out really great and have sold like 'hot cakes' You can order them HERE or pick them up at the Amsterdam Lindy Exchange

I also made a limited number with the logo from the dance night I run in Utrecht. Love these ones.

Merit Badges

A fun little project to get me back in to the swing of things.

Having some fun drawing again tonight after a month of graphic/web design projects. Nice to be back!

Sparse scribbles

More scribbling but not much illustration. Everything seems to be Websites and graphic design projects. Out of my comfort zone but learning lots. Missing drawing though.

In Fashion

For some reason owls are in vogue

More Cafe Scribbles

Doodling

I will get back down to some serious work this week but in the meantime I have been getting back into the habit of sketching. Lost my line a bit but some practice should get that back.
