Why not visit my other web-site, too? It's an ongoing art project themed around a girl called Erla and the creatures that live on her island.
There are character profiles, comic strips, paintings and customised toys for you to look at, as well as a shop selling t-shirts, yetis, badges and original artworks. www.erla.co.uk

It's been ages since the last update, but I've been pretty busy becoming a vector illustration contributor for iStockphoto.com.
Since getting approved, I've been working hard on starting my image portfolio. I've uploaded ten images so far - I'll keep on adding more things over time, then hopefully I'll start picking up some sales.
If you'd like to purchase some of my iStock vector images for use in your design project, you can view my portfolio by clicking on the shiny button below.

The images of mine on iStockphoto are only available for purchase from there, and not directly from myself. You're welcome to get in touch with me directly if you'd like me to create something especially for your own project.

First up for this update is the third poster for Major/Minor. View the skeletons here. This'll be the last one for a while, as Caroline's taking some time out to have a baby. It's been great fun working on these posters, so hopefully Major/Minor will be back in the future.

Second up are a couple of designs I did for Kidrobot. Sadly these didn't make the next Dunny series, but I'm flattered that Kidrobot hunted me down and asked me to give it a shot. Even the super-talented McBess has been knocked back by Kidrobot, so I don't feel too hard done by to miss out. Click on the images to see the designs in more detail.

The second poster for Major/Minor is now up for your viewing pleasure. See the space cats here.

A few things for this update. First up is a flyer and poster I designed for new Glasgow live music night Major/Minor. more

Second is an illustration of a White Ermine for Gwenn Ha Du, an importer of beers and ciders from Brittany. more

Lastly, thank you to everyone who voted for my Yoka designs in the Clutter contest. Both of mine are through to the final with a chance of being made for real. Fingers crossed!

After a month spent battling a throat infection and going round in circles on Paypal's shop button making pages, my shop is now officially open!
The shop launch coincides with the release of my first ever giclée print, entitled 'Candy', shown below:

Thank you to Michael at Art4Site for doing such a great job on the prints, the fine detail and vibrant colours are fantastic.
Visit the shop now to find out about this and other products available. There's a free sticker pack with every purchase, too!

Just a sneaky peak at a drawing for you in this update - a small section of my new piece 'Candy', which I was pleased enough with to turn into my first proper giclée print. It'll be launched in a new shop section of the site, once I've worked out the postage costs and set up the page.
Only 10 copies have been printed (each signed and numbered) - if you want to be first to know when they're released, why not join my new mailing list, over there on the left?
The shop will also become a home to original paintings, stickers, custom toys and anything else I can dream up. Stay tuned...

As promised, I've been busy painting over my Christmas break, mostly working on this new painting, Dead Garden.
I'd hoped to get more things done - there are a couple of things I've started sketching ready to work on through January...
27Dec08

New drawing up today, another girl and ghost drawn in Illustrator, and a vast improvement on the last one, I think.
I've got a couple of weeks off work for Christmas, so I'm hoping to get lots more drawing done...
06Dec08
Another double update this time.

First of all, I'm really excited to announce that I've designed the artwork for The Hermit Crabs' new EP, called 'Correspondence Course'. I've been wanting to design a CD for as long as I can remember, so I was really pleased when they approached me. You can view the full artwork here or buy the actual CD from Matinee Recordings, or in the shops.
If you're in a band and you want me to design your CD for a reasonable price, too, please get in touch!

Secondly, here's a new painting. I'm still busy sketching people, and this one turned into a proper painting. I'm definitely improving, but still think I can do better if I keep at it. Take a proper look here. |
