Oh I’m hopeless, I know. It feels like last week since I was last on here but I can see from the dates it was a good few months. I haven’t been completely lazy, I’ve been making cuddly wabbids mainly but thought I’d better skip back to the job in hand, and the job in hand was this:
Watercolour on A3 Bockingford
And these:
Imaginary Giraffes

So I’ve been struggling with this little guy for a while…the initial sketches were too ‘old’ looking; he needs to appeal to toddlers…so here is the finished illustration.
Gutted. A studio that I did some work for a couple of months ago have announced they are closing their doors. Very sad and made sadder by the fact that I havent been paid. On the bright side though, Daler Rowney brought a smile to my face (helped by my postman) by sending me 3 tubes of free paint…its that pleasure/pain thing, gets you every time.

Absolutely disgraceful.
….well under the sink at least. Here is my latest project…I discovered some fantastic new colours whilst doing this. Keepers.
A new childrens illustration for a brief that has had me thinking for ages – I had too many ideas and just couldnt get started on any of them. Once again, pen and ink…I really should do more like this as I always enjoy it more than I think I will when I set out to do it…
Pen and Ink
Why oh why oh why wont my paper behave? I’m following the rules but it just wants to curl up a soon as I touch it – any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated folks as I’m all out of ideas…
