Poppy

Here is my new piece that I have been working on for absolutely ages. It a piece dedicated to one of my watchers as a thankyou for their continued support. I will be doing another giveaway sometime this year, but not too soon as I have some personal ideas I want to do before then.
I decided in the end to ditch the green leaf background as it wasn't working as I wanted it too, and was detracting from the star of the show; the poppies. I have really enjoyed drawing flowers, and they will definitely feature in at least one more of my pieces this year.

Poppy (Work In Progress)

So this is a piece I am working on the moment. I did an event on my deviantart where I asked my watchers to comment, and I would then pick a random comment and do a piece that they wanted me to. The watcher I picked (PoppyMay) wanted a piece based on Poppies, so off I went. I've always wanted to do a piece that involved flowers more prominently, so this has been a lot of fun.

So here are some pictures of where I'm upto at the moment:

After the background layer of pastel was added and now I'm starting to do the detailing in the background:

It's finally finished! 

So this is the Hipster Girl image that I have finally finished. I think it's turned out to be one of my better pieces, and my most 'trendy one'. I'll be turning this into a tshirt design for Threadless, so watch this space.

I'm still alive... some more work in progress!

So after a long Christmas break I am starting to get back into work again. The first thing I want to do is complete the hipster girl image I started last year, and then after that complete a commission that is sprinkled with poppies.

Other projects I would like to do this year would be to do a series of work based upon a theme. I'm thinking circus, masks, flower meanings or Rococo...too much choice it seems! I would also like to collaborate with some fellow illustrators... so if you're reading this and are interested don't hesitate to get in contact.

Work In Progress- Hipster

Just a little piece that I am working on at the moment. I'm thinking of doing a short series of 'stereotypes', so comment if there are any in particular you would like to see me do!

The Imaginary Beings Exhibition

So last weekend on the 8th October my work was included with other artist's work in an exhibition at the Devonport Guildhall in Plymouth.

The exhibition included visual art, performances, live music, video and sculpture. All of it breath taking! I am very happy to have been a part of this exhibition, and hope to be included in more like this in my future career. Here are some pictures for you to peruse, better quality scans of the artwork should be up soon.
