Traditional artist fully converted to digital. I love funny stuff, stupid puns and Christmas cracker jokes that would make your nan cringe. Some day, I would love to be a children’s book illustrator. In the meantime, I will continue to assault the internet with my dry humour, even if a lot of people tell me to go away.

Still charcoaling… this one ended up with a bit of an eighties hairdo though

I can rarely resist doing something silly to a reference

More from my work in progress

I’m thinking of investing in a hairdryer. Waiting for layers to dry is not my idea of fun and patience is not my strong point 😂

Natural history all the way.

I’ve been working my way through an EDX course on natural history illustration. I’m really enjoying it, so expect more zoomed in drawings of random twigs and things I find when I’m out walking the dogs.

Mo charcoaling and some book editing

I’m never going to get this stuff from under my fingernails 😂In other news, I spent the morning yesterday redoing text for my children’s book project with Michael Mortenson, here’s a little sneak peek. Watch this space.

Mo crosshatching and more charcoaling

Go go messy fingers (sing this to the power rangers theme)

Happy Easter!!!

I went crosshatching. My dog found a bunny this morning but it didn’t have any eggs for us.

Charcoaling and a badly photographed landscape

First time I’ve done a Landscape since school, still got a bit bored.
