A Burberry of Raincoats

This was a quick quick quick project for a collective nouns competition. I'm working on a few longer term projects right now but sometimes its nice to take a break.

Last Ever Lifedrawing - Linda

Last ever naked tuesday! *sniff* We were drawing Linda, who I previously thought was called Allison.

Elephant Stew

For a recipe in the Observer monthly food magazine by Nigel Slater for "elephant stew"... (which does not contain elephants).

Cinnamon and white wine jelly

Recently I found an article that suggested making Jelly as the new "it" dessert for cheaper dinner parties. I decided to do a quick drawing for the article, to get in the mood for some shorter projects after my great big printed book.

Chipmunk antics

This is one half of a duo that are making up my next possible children's book... he may still change a fair bit. Also he doesn't have a name yet, suggestions welcome. :)

Starbucks on the Royal Mile

I haven't been posting much because I'm screen printing a book, but here is something I drew today.

Stranger At The Pier

This illustration is for the text and image collaboration project between Edinburgh University Creative Writing MA course and us 4th year illustrators. I'm working with a man named Larkin who wrote a short story called "Stranger at the pier", this is my image to accompany that story. Its a pretty dark story so my usual happy/ colourful illustrations would not have gone well. I tried to keep the things I'm interested in (colour, pattern, shape) and apply them to a darker image.
