Tee Party

Three t-shirt designs that I produced for a competition run by Ohhdeer.com.

                                             

Grow a Pear

A piece that I produced for the 'Hug a Tree' exhibition, currently being held at the Funky Aardvark gallery in Chester. Go check it out, the future of our ecosystem may very well depend on it.

Sketchbook Scribbles

A few pages from my latest sketchbook.

Cocktails 2: Rise of the Margarita

I recently designed four images to be used on drinks coasters, each inspired by a different signature cocktail. These are not anything to do with my last post, but it does feel like most things I draw at the moment are based around alcohol. This is quite possibly why nobody has asked me to illustrate a children's book yet.

My Tales of Cock.

TGI Friday's asked me to produce images for some of their cocktails from their swanky new menu. Being the nice sort of chap I am, I gladly obliged.  I was given five cocktails to illustrate, but I enjoyed this project so much I decided to do one of them twice.

Pint of Leer

So I have decided to start converting a few of my tweets in pictorial form. This drawing is still in keeping with the etiquette of Twitter, as I managed to use less than 140 characters in it. And on that note, I shall thank you for visiting my blog for the last ever time.

Andrew Graham-Dixon

I was asked to produce a poster and leaflet design for art historian and chief BBC Arts Presenter, Andrew Graham-Dixon, to advertise his Caravaggio lecture series at the Edinburgh Fringe and Edinburgh Arts Festival. The brief called for something that would attract in an audience a little different to Andrew's usual demographic, as the Fringe has a slightly more varied range of visitors. I thought the cherub penises would do the trick.

Good Thrill Hunting

A quick doodle from my sketchbook. Some people might argue that this would have been best kept hidden in my sketchbook. But those would be unkind people.

Hipota Crochet

Another illustration for Amelia's Magazine, again to accompany an article by Jessica Cook. This time the piece was focussinng on Hipota Crochet, the wonderful miniature creations of embroidery artist Kaoru Hirota. Yes I used pink in my drawing again, what of it? http://bit.ly/WRgXyg

Delilah Magazine

This little little was an illustration I produced for Delilah Magazine (www.delilahmagazine.com), to accompany an article on dating. I know what you're thinking, and I agree. That is one damn fine piece of ass.

Amelia's Magazine

This is a piece I produced for Amelia's Magazine, to accompany an article written by the very talented Jessica Cook. The article was was entitled '50 Fabulous Frocks at the Fashion Museum, Bath'. My illustration focusses on a Champagne fancy dress costume from the 1900s. Check it - http://bit.ly/12zAzYT.

Commas and Colons.

This was a cover I designed for new online literary magazine, Commas and Colons. It features the lovely work of some delightful writers from around the world, and you should go and have a ruddy good look at it now (it's amazing they don't let me write for them too).

LOL skateboards

A design of mine was recently used for a series of promotional skateboards, for a new soft drink called 'LOL'. The brief called for something that would appeal to an audience of 11 to 16 years olds. I like to think this was 'rad' enough.

Horizontal Sorrow

This was a piece I produced for the lovely folks over at Inc Magazine, to accompany a poem entitled 'Horizontal Sorrow'.

Inner Dialogue.

This is my submission to Raygun Press, an illustration blog where artists can submit illustrations based around various themes. This particular theme was Inner Dialogue. http://raygunillustration.blogspot.co.uk/

Nine heads are better than one.

An idea I was playing around with, having all the characters connected to one another through their hair.

Movember Moustache Creature

This was a competition piece I produced for Creature magazine, as part of an open submission they ran to celebrate Movember. The brief basically asked for a classic moustache shape, to be developed into a character of some sort. Check it here - http://bit.ly/vb7LEN

Frigid Sid

A quick design I drew up for All Tropical's ongoing t-shirt competiton. No great meaning behind it, other than, I was a bit chilly whilst I was drawing. Finished runner up.

octoPuss

I produced this cuddly fella recently, to be used on a t-shirt, for the delightful Halu clothing.
Want to buy a t-shirt? You do? Marvelous!!
