Jolly!

Some of my work has been featured recently on the Jolly Bureau website - in the curate section which is a blog showcasing inspiration from illustrators and designers. Thanks to the guys at Jolly Bureau for featuring me, I recommend having a browse around the blogs as there is lots of good stuff posted on there.

Moving on

I recently did this quickie illustration (very short turnaround!) for Wintec Circle - it was for a postcard aimed at recent graduates. We ended up going with a brighter yellow background to fit the branding but I still quite like the original palette so here is a look...

Snark...

Here is a little peek at a full page illustration I completed awhile ago for Unlimited Magazine (it's in the current  issue), about the Snark stealth helicopter which was designed by New Zealander Trevor Rodgers. I had a lot of fun working on this one, taking a little bit of inspiration from Lewis Carroll's 'The Hunting of the Snark'.

Ljubljana Maps

I recently completed a couple of illustrated maps of Ljubljana for Wizz Magazine in the UK, the inflight magazine of Wizz air.

You can see them in context in the online version of the mag here.

More on the '40 Winks' illustration show...

I seem to be posting a lot about the show, however I have also just completed some editorial illustrations for magazines here and in the UK, so there will be some non-show related stuff coming very soon.

For now, you can see some pics from the opening night here.

And there is a brief write-up on the show here.

Drawings from the show...

Here is a look at some of my drawings from the '40 Winks' show, currently on at Draw Inc. in Hamilton. The images are based on narrative fragments from various folk tales. Thanks to Anne Challinor of Draw Inc. for these pics.
