AOI Images 36

2012-01-05T16:23:00.001Z

Happy New Year everyone! Hope you all had a great Christmas and enjoyed whatever time off you had!

First post of the year and it's good news as my Octo illustration has been selected for The Association Of Illustrators (AOI) Images 36 'Best of British contemporary illustration'.

I entered the image in the self promotion section as it was created (and is still available here) as a free downloadable IPad wallpaper.

TS Today - 'Lapland'

2011-12-22T12:13:00.000Z

Merry Christmas everyone! With mere days to go till we all eat, drink and be merry here's my recent cover illustration for the lovely folks at TS Today.

I'm sure you all remember the truly awful Lapland 'theme park' that was all over the press a while back, well... Trading Standards had their pretty watertight court case against them thrown out due to a texting juror!

Unfortunately I haven't got hold of the magazine yet so can't show you the illustration in situation but check back soon and I'll update this post when I do!

Enjoy the festivities and I'll see you in 2012!

Digital Arts - 'Masterclass'

2011-10-24T14:49:00.010+01:00

Feels crazy to say it but it's almost November! But it's not all bad as in this months Digital Arts magazine I was commissioned to produce a 'Masterclass' (their words not mine...) tutorial for my illustration the Donor Trail.

Now the Donor Trail illustration has been a busy illo and was seen by the Digital Arts editor, Neil Bennett, at the AOI Images 35 exhibition.

It was a interesting job, having to really thinking about my process in creating illustrations and getting it down on paper. The way I work is by no means perfect and it's a constantly evolving thing but hopefully it'll be useful and maybe insightful to someone out there!

Digital Arts November issue

is out now in Newsagents now or you can buy it here -

AOI Images 35 - Exhibition and Book

2011-09-05T17:11:00.009+01:00

I'm a little late in posting this but it was the Association Of Illustrators Images 35 exhibition/annual launch on the 25th of August.

My Donor Trail image for the Radio Times was selected by the panel of judges and as always it's great to be a part of such a fantastic collection of illustration. It's a real buzz for me to have my work seen aside illustrators I used to look up to when looking at the annuals way back at University!

The show was at the Bankside Gallery on London's Southbank and ran until the 5th September so I hope you got chance to have a look round.

If your interested in getting your hands on the annual check out theaoi.com for further details.

Libya

2011-08-26T18:35:00.005+01:00

The conflict in Libya has been all over the news with the what looks like the fall of Gaddafi's regime. One image that stood out for me was the statue of the golden hand crushing a American plane in Tripoli with rebels around it. So thought I'd have a little play with the imagery and this is the outcome.

Personal work

2011-08-22T15:40:00.003+01:00

A little post of a bit of personal work I've just finished working on, trying out some new textures and all that, it's a little sad but hey... enjoy!

Community Care - Front Cover

2011-06-30T14:19:00.005+01:00

Above is a lovely commission I recently completed for Community Care magazine. It was great to get another cover illustration with such a meaty subject matter - NHS reforms and the impact on social care.

The gist of the article is that the proposed coalition reforms are going to hit the learning disabled. Missing out on foster care for example and ending up in less supportive large hospitals/homes.

The illustration was also used alongside the article. (below)

TS Today - 'Environmental Hazard'

2011-06-01T11:12:00.002+01:00

Within it you'll find some questions and answers about my work/process along with what tech I use and descriptions of the images you can see. There's also a photo of my work area (it's not always that tidy..) but please ignore the slightly cringe worthy snap of me!

Lovers

2010-12-03T13:41:00.005Z

Personal work time again and I've been having a little play around with this - it's been fun to do something a little more light hearted.

Anyway hope you like!

Climbing The Ladder

2009-05-03T18:32:00.004+01:00

Thought I'd give myself a bit of a bank holiday kick and set a 3 hour deadline to get this illustration done (from concept to completion).

Here's a editorial piece I've just finished - supposedly 'If you love coffee and drink more than 100 cups in 4 hours you'll probably die.' Hmm... even though the 'probably' is slightly vague, if you ever feel the need to try I would still recommend stopping at the 100 mark.

Luckily I drank no coffee in the making of this illustration, just a bottle of wine so I'll be fine.

Spend today worry tomorrow.

2008-11-25T17:37:00.004Z

Don't know about anyone else but now Labour have cut VAT by 2.5% I'm going to go out and spend £800 on a 50 inch TV I don't really need cos at a saving of £20 how can you say no?
But at least I'll sleep well knowing I've helped the economy which will obviously no doubt be reciprocated in a year or so when I'm struggling.

Plus with that extra £20 quid I'll nip out and buy a new jumper, that way I'll not have to use the central heating...

F1 Bahrain 2008

2008-04-18T17:40:00.002+01:00

All the press were writing that Massa had to perform this weekend otherwise his seat would be under serious threat, well, he answered them with one of his 3 a year barnstormers and left the others in his wake even including his team mate. Kimi struggled all weekend but a solid performance to take 2nd meant that he climbed to the top of the championship leaderboard - which is quite ominous considering where he he was last year at this stage..
Kubica took a surprised and deserved pole and 3rd in the menacing BMW that could very take the title challenge to Ferrari and push Mclaren back a step or two as they struggle to put everything together.
3 week break and back to Barcelona where you really start to find out who's quickest...
