The cumbrian wild.

Last week I was sent out into the brutal wilds of Carlisle to draw an abandoned car park and it was So Much Fun!

Urban Sketching

Urban sketching in Carlisle, Cumbria.

Very cold, wet and miserable but so much fun!!

Issuu book to come!

POP!

India Ink 

Redesign time!

For the past couple of weeks I've been working on my personal identity as an illustrator, working on my business cards, mailers and website design. I've always thought that I have a very erratic style of illustration, which while exciting ain't all that great for presenting an identity. However after designing my portfolio site and putting everything together I can't help thinking it all looks very...me!

So after several bizzillian hours of adobe muse and bashing my head again the desk I present my new portfolio website. Complete with updated work! (That is all very me!)

Back in town!

The third and final year of my degree has commenced and oh dear lord I'm already drowning in stress. Be not alarmed however, I shall be getting my butt into gear and posting and updating everything quite quite soon. (pinky promise!)

Saying that, recently I have been more inclined to post work to my Tumblr account and while I shall still be posting finished projects here (soon!) I feel more comfortable throwing out work in progress and quick collage/sketchbook pages there.

It's weird I know but there you go!

Computer Arts

Exciting stuff, my poster from the one day briefs got used to promote the universitys final show in the latest issue of Computer arts (201)
I know its not a proper feature but its still published work and I am super chuffed!

 

The exhibition is running until the 13th at the Brampton road campus in Carlisle. 

Get a better look over at Grillust.

Ceramics made in the university workshop.

 So they're not the most beautiful of artefacts but I like em.

Lost in the Post

Finally dug out my camera and found the photos of all the birthday, mothers day and thank you cards I made recently. Lots of fun to do!
