New Work - Pray

It's been some time since I posted anything so here is some new work that I recently completed:

New Work - Night Town

It's festival time in Night Town! Somewhere in the world there lies a great forest, hidden away in this forest grows a tree of unknown age. The inhabitants of this tree appear visible to the human eye only once every 23 years when they hold a festival to celebrate something long forgotten.

Are they celebrating tonight?

New Work - Jellicity

I have just completed this personal piece of work called 'Jellicity'. I thought that 'jellicity' would be a real word, referring to how jellified something was (similar to elasticity), but apparently not. So next time you make some jelly and a friend comments upon its lack of jellicity, you know where the term comes from. Additionally it can refer to, as in this case, a city inside a jellyfish.

.Dock Illustrations

I recently created these designs for an article in a free paper called .Dock (an abbreviation of Document of Creativity in Kobe). .Dock is a paper that documents design related activities in Kobe, a city appointed a City of Design by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization).

The article by Bianca Beuttel (a Kobe based designer-essayist) looks at the relationship between children and design.

Behance Uploads

Continuing my uploading of past work to the Behance site, here is a collection of Victorian machinery:

And here is a preview

New Work - Jurassic Love

This is a new piece of personal work I have just finished called 'Jurassic Love'. The image represents a fictional (as far as I know) love story between two Diplodocus (Diplodoci?). As we all now know that love story doesn't have a particularly happy ending.

Antler Town Cotton Bags

Here is a preview of the 'Antler Town' cotton bags I have had made for the Atelier Loghouse craft fair. Details of the fair can be found HERE

Atelier Loghouse Craft Fair

On Sunday 11th of November I will be selling some of my work alongside many other artists at the Atelier Loghouse near Minou. I will mainly be selling bags and postcards so if you are interested in popping around and saying hi details can be seen on their website HERE.

Ten Year Anniversary

This is an image I created to celebrate ten years of marriage this week. Time passes so quickly!

New Work - Spiderlins

I have just completed this new image, observing the life of a rather musical family of Arachnids. I was interested in creating an image with spiders and was inspired by the many interesting shapes that exist in the wild and those yet to be discovered!

New Work - Bat Cave

Here is some new work I have just completed, entitled 'Bat Cave'. This particular bat cave, however, does not feature any ageing British actors dressed as butlers. (please click image to enlarge):

Victorian Machines - 'The Bobby"

I have recently been experimenting with bringing my illustration to life through animation. Here is my first (very brief) attempt. It is called 'The Bobby' and is based on one of my older illustrations of the same name. It features a petty thief's attempts at escaping from a rather menacing looking policing device in an alternate Victorian era. Hope you enjoy!

New Work - Antler Town

Following on from my last illustration comes another piece exploring the lives of the tiny people that lead near invisible lives in the wild. Have you seen one?

Website Update

Just a quick message to say I have just updated my website with some new work. I have already posted links to most of the work here before but it is all now conveniently in one place, less scrolling involved! The site can be seen here . Thank you!

New Work - Fly the Coop!

Here is a new piece of work I have recently finished, about the little people we see living in the trees and forests around us. You know what I'm talking about, right? Those little folk? What do you mean you never see them? Your just not looking hard enough!

New Work - Tree House

Here is some new work I have just completed, inspired by....well, trees and woodland animals and stuff like that. Hope you enjoy passing your eyes over it! (Click to see large image)

New Work / Poolga

(A slightly late post but better late than never!)

Two new pieces of work by myself are now available to download for iphone and ipad from the great Poolga website. The work is part of an 'Unseen Agency' week on the site featuring works by many fantastic Unseen artists. See here for the Poolga site and check out more Unseen artists here. Here is a sneak preview:

Cloudbusting

Moonlight Fishing

New Work - Winter Maiden

I'm sure everyone over in the UK is sick and tired of wintery scenes at the moment but I'm actually feeling rather nostalgic for the snow laden British countryside of my youth. Which leads me to the subject of my latest and final illustration in a series of work entitled 'seasonal maidens':

Winter Maiden

New Work - Seasonal Maidens

I have been creating illustrations of 'ethereal maidens' for each season this year and have just completed one for Autumn, a rather blustery design which is fitting for the recent change in weather.

Just winter to complete now, with any luck I will post it before the year is out and then can look forward to ushering the spring again!

Here are all the designs so far (click to enlarge):

Summer Maiden

FormFiftyFive

My latest work can be seen up on the FormFiftyFive website from Monday 8th November for one week as part of a weekly showcase of artists belonging to the Unseen Agency. I recommend anyone interested in design to check out this great website which profiles many interesting artists and designers.

For those who's fingers have seized up and are unable to click, here is a preview of the work (but please check out the site if you get a chance!)
