This is a project I’ve been working on called Jesus 2.0. It’s an infographic guide to performing some of JC’s most popular miracles, printed on communion wafers. Pretty sweet huh? Yes, I know, it’s potentially offensive. However, my intentions for this project were primarily to amuse, rather than to offend. I do love the idea […]
I found myself messing around with symmetrical patterns this evening, and it got me thinking about moths and butterflies. They both have exquisite patterns on their wings, but moths are normally less brilliantly coloured. Wikipediaphile and proud, I made a quick curiosity-fueled google search. What’s interesting is that there are often ultraviolet patterns and hues in a moth’s […]
Here I am, back with some shiny new stuff as promised. I’ve literally just completed this illustration, and I’ve got a couple of alternative versions for you to chew on 🙂 I’ve also uploaded a video of its creation, which I’ve no doubt you’ll find utterly enthralling 😉 The smoke took a few hours to […]
I’ve been busy. I have so much to show you that I haven’t a clue where to begin. So, I’m going to leave you with a link to my shop for now, as it has prints of a few of my shiny new illustrations for you to look at. I think it’s time I started […]
Hello again, poor neglected blog. It is official, I’m an art student….again. I’ve had a bit of a shock to my system;this college actually gives you stuff to do, and lots of it! We get live briefs, studio units, visual recording (drawing, painting from life) computers in art and design, AS photography (almost as much […]
This is VERY different to my usual work. I got bored watching TV last night so I started sketching some random things 😀 I sketched this guy really quick with an hb pencil. I used a cocktail stick dipped in ink to draw loosely over the pencil lines, then did some quick blocking in and […]
Just a simple illustration I painted using graphic design software. I didn’t want too much detail, I just aimed to capture the warmth and the movement in this scene. I’m starting a National Diploma in Graphic Design in September, so I’m brushing up on my digital illustration skills 😀
Just a little coloured pencil sketch of a rhino at Chester zoo. He seemed weary, the tedium of captive life eh? Boredom
Well, I’m in the mood for big cats again today. I was given permission to draw this handsome lion, Izu, by the young and accomplished teen photographer Charles. His photography can be found here- http://www.flickr.com/photos/charlessf/ I spent the entirety of this morning drawing this. The foreshortening was quite challenging, but I think I pulled it off. Izu’s mane […]
This drawing was inspired by a beautiful photograph by the talented David Hewett, who can be found here on Flickr.com- http://www.flickr.com/photos/mrdehoot/ David kindly gave me permission to reference his work. I drew this in H pencil, HB, and 5B, then gave it colour glazes to bring out the eyes. And a greyscale version..
