Just finished a poster for a series of talks in Cambridge…

I will give a prize to the first person who can correctly name everyone in the picture, which is no mean feat as I’m not too sure about some of the likenesses!

The prize might not be that good though… you’ll just have to wait and see

Just finished a digital image for an article on opendemocracy about the politics of poppy day. I was going for a kind of early 20th-century avant garde photomontage style. It was interesting making a completely digital image, and actually very fun!

A poster I designed for the single launch of the 22-piece girl alt. choir Gaggle.

today’s drawing

a bit of a rude one… this was a little photoshop experiment. I drew it out by hand then tried colouring on the computer. Again, just click on it and you should see a larger version.

As I’ve been working on my website, I’ve also been looking around at other illustrator’s websites and found some inspiring stuff which I thought I’d share.

1. Emanuelesi . I like the gentle, humorous nature of this work. Oh, and his dogs.

2. Britta Naslund. Beautiful pencil detail of beautiful girls and boys

3. Arlene Rieneke. A Singapore-based illustrator. I especially like her reimagined book covers (a project I am storing up for a rainy day).

4. Gabriel Moreno. who seems to have worked for everyone. But probably deserves to.

5. Lotte Beatrix Crawford . who produces beautifully messy, and often funny, watercolours.
