New York!

I've been revisiting my photo albums while clearing out the cellar and came across my New York Album! I'd like to do a largish illustration about this wonderful city at some point, but think I will just have a play with some smaller bits for now...

Back on track!

I've been so busy inventing new ways to use up courgettes lately that I've been a little unproductive on the illustration front! But I intend to more than make up for it over the next few weeks - starting with a girl with a unicorn balloon. Because balloons are always better when they're animal shaped. Or mythical creature shaped.

New Baby!

My youngest cousin and his wife have just had a beautiful baby girl... an excellent excuse to make a card! Congratulations James and Gemma!

Turning pattern into stationary...

A friend asked me to make some note cards to give as a gift, which gave me a brilliant excuse to use the patterns I've been working on.

So the above packs of printed note cards are Pattern 101 'India & Elephants' and Pattern 102 'The Bird & The Stag' 's first printed outings! I think there will be more where this came from!

PSS: Dalton Ghetti

I stumbled across the fabulous pencil-sculptor Dalton Ghetti the other day and I love his work! From an entire miniature lead alphabet to an intricately cut key, his work is stunning; so intricate and yet so simple. Definitely worth looking out for!
