This was a fun piece to do (even if it took a while to finish, but i’m sure you’ll all appreciate that procrastination won’t get done on it’s own). I added the lighting effects to the main character in the same why (I hope) that SPA Studio’s did for their movie, Klaus. There’s a lotContinue reading “The Clock Maker”

The Clock Maker WIP
Working on this bad boy at the moment. The above piece was made quickly to give me and idea of the atmosphere and values I’d be focusing on before I fully render it. I did a similar illustration to this for Inktober on instagram a couple years ago and always wanted to expand on it.Continue reading “The Clock Maker WIP”
Paper Planes
A friend of mine has been nagging me for a while to do an illustration of a group of us that all met a few years ago in Ibiza. One of the first things that happened in our apartment was the maiden flight of a paper airplane, I can’t remember why and we probably shouldContinue reading “Paper Planes”
Life’s a beach
This is another concept for a children’s book. I feel like there’s lots of potential and character here to explore – who, what, where, how etc… This place feels lived in and practically built, even if it seems a little unstable in places. Is it an island or part of a larger mainland like soContinue reading “Life’s a beach”
Sailing the skies
This is a children’s book concept I’ve been toying with for a while. It’s essentially a story about time and death, which doesn’t sound too children’s book-y, I know, but the story would address the issue in a subtle and abstract way (I hope). Anyway, this a full page spread in which the two mainContinue reading “Sailing the skies”
Fishing Village: work-in-progress
Three hour digital sketch that I’m going to tidy up and colour for the portfolio. The idea was taken from a fantasy book I’m reading at the moment by Miles Cameron (if you’ve not read his work, I highly recommend him). I’m excited about this one!
The Testaments
This is a throwback to an editorial piece I did for the release of Margaret Atwood’s “The Testaments” for a university project. It went through a few iterations before I landed this design, but this illustration in particular ignited my want to become a professional in the art industry. I’ve also yet to read thisContinue reading “The Testaments”
Happy Father’s Day!
Darcy and Ted
Two hour quick digital paint of a girl and her dog. Not really any refinement to this one, just a quick bit of character design and a mess around with colours. Enjoy!
Safari Family Photo – Process part 2
This took a little longer than anticipated, but it’s finally finished! So… the final part of the process is by far and away the longest and most tedious. I can kind of switch off my brain a little bit here and just settle in for the long haul. I’m adding contact shadow, detail (like giraffeContinue reading “Safari Family Photo – Process part 2”
