I have started to illustrate one of the three childrens books that I have written. Oddly, each was for a competition and all got to 'almost' stage and then fell to the wayside. 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

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?

The Snail
It was in there, somewhere... At first I noticed a few slime trails on the carpet. But after a time I realised that the small creature was still around. The trails went from my dog's chews, to the door and to my desk. Not the computer desk but the drawing desk. I was happy to… Continue reading The Snail
New Drawing!
Yep, The last one is finished and because it is going for a competition I'm afraid that it is hidden until they accept or decline it. So... on to the next. This one I searched everywhere of the canvas. It has a 7.4 cm depth! That means that the picture really will wrap around the… Continue reading New Drawing!
The drawing so far…
I have been ill... Again... But I have managed to do a little drawing. It is getting there slowly.
