Yep... I did it. Finally finished the digital painting... It took nine and a half hours. And I loved it so much that I have uploaded to Society 6 and Zippi (the UK version of Society 6). Have a look-see. I love the mugs. 'Here Be Dragons' is awaiting a proof and that one will… Continue reading Finished

Disaster!
I didn't go into the workshop yesterday. Instead, I watched the rain come down and I baked, decorated my room and moved furniture. I didn't think about the workshop... It is always fine. But I had underestimated the amount of rain. The amount of damp. If I'd looked in the mirror I may have had… Continue reading Disaster!
Something new
So I went and did it. I shopped on ebay for a Wacom Intuos 3... Which, for those of you not in the know, is a digital tablet. I picked one up for a song... I have been suffering from migraines - basically too much drawing. The irony is that I use such a large… Continue reading Something new

Still working on the illustrations
Still working on the kids book... Now it is a VW camper. I have wondered if my illustrations are too detailed. But they are how I draw - I just hope they go with the writing... Sorry the photo is bad but we have storms here and it is effecting the light badly.

So I thought - why not publish them...? The first is with the editor at the moment and she is hacking it… Continue reading Illustrating
Sale!
Yep - I'm putting some of my artwork on sale. 50% off... Go have a look see. Basically I need to make room in my workshop.
The portrait…
I'm pleased. Thank you to Ashton and Sharnie for agreeing to be my models - two brilliant cousins. And it is finished but as it is going for a competition I will share the completed piece once it is up, or not... Everything is crossed that it will get picked though. If you were wondering… Continue reading The portrait…
Try, Try, Again
I'm having another go and it is looking good... Sorry about the quality of the photo - we are having thunderstorms here and it is a bit dull in the workshop.
‘The Shallow Sea’
It's almost ready to go for a proof print and after the disaster of yesterday I am happy to say that the cover is coming along well... What do you think?
