Winter update

I know I have been a little slack with post updates of late, but fortunately this is due to me being really busy with a combination of freelance design work and illustration commissions.

Since January, I have worked across London for some fantastic design agencies, working on a variation of dynamic and exciting projects. Read more »

Imaginary Friend

The illustration is based on the concept of  a young girl playing with her imaginary friend. Read more »

Despite supposedly now being an adult, I have never been able to shake my affection with the Teenage Ninja Mutant Turtles.

Growing up as an 80s child meant I was able to see first hand the huge impact these little reptiles had on the world. To say I was obsessed with them would have been an understatement. Read more »

Yeti

Happy New Year folks…

What better way to start it off then with an illustration of a Yeti. This file will be available to purchase from my iStock portfolio.

I have included the complete process, as well as some larger screenshots of the illustration so that you can see the detail a little clearer. Read more »

Happy New Year

Happy New Year

Just before we wave goodbye to 2011, I thought I would post a couple of illustrations I have worked on over the Christmas break.

They aren’t anything amazing, it is just some character design work I was doing in between that lull of Christmas and the New Year. Read more »

Dribbble

Dribbble

After about a year of waiting, this week I got the ultimate Christmas present when I received my invite to be a player and upload my work on to Dribbble.

For those who don’t know, Dribbble is a show and tell site for designers where you can upload snapshots of your work for the world to see. You can register to view the other designers work whenever you wish, but it isn’t until you receive an invite from another ‘player’ that can you start uploading your own work. Read more »

Christmas Doodle Advent Calendar update

Just in case you have missed some (or all) of the Christmas Advent Calendar doodles I have been producing, I have included them below.

You can see the remaining seven by following me on Twitter or by checking my other blog on a daily basis. Alternatively, I will be uploading the final few to this site on Christmas Eve. Read more »

Travel disruption

Travel disruption

I have recently been working on this illustration and thought rather then just uploading the final image, I would upload my entire process.

The illustration itself is based on every commuters nightmare… Having to stand near the guy who has his music blaring out so loud that your brain begins to throb. Read more »

Christmas Advent Doodle Calendar

Anyone who knows me, knows what a sucker I am for Christmas.

For me, it is the best time of the year bar none. I simply love the joy it generates and the way it can bring people together. Read more »

It is the simple things in life

It is the simple things in life

I have recently been working on a few different characters visuals for a client who was keen to explore the ways in which we could simplify my designs in order to give their finished project a cleaner look. Read more »

Hello…

Welcome to my deepest, darkest thoughts and creations… Well, actually it is just my blog, but you know what I mean.

I will be regularly updating my blog (*cough* maybe) with sketches, doodles and any exciting news that comes my way.

The chance are that the cartoons will more often than not be inappropriate and childish, but to be honest that is what I love about what I do – I get to create these crazy little worlds where I can entertain myself and hopefully you all too.

Thanks for dropping by. If you have enjoyed my work, why not leave a comment…
