Metro

Yesterday was such an exciting day!!! My coffee drawing was in the metro along side Martina and Yinka. We are a part of Let's Be Brief.

Magazine and zine

I'm excited to share that issue 4 of Plog magazine has some of my work featured in it. I got myself a copy at the Pick me up fair and the quality of the whole magazine is really impressive.

And I've illustrated a story for Bad Roommate zine, all I can say is that it is about rice...

Drawings and Magazines

For the past two weeks now Ive been going life drawing again and I decided to try something different with my drawings and work them into my normal weirdness,  as usually the drawings I do get left and forgotten about in some sketchbook or another. 

And my work is in Bizarre Magazine in the October issue and in The Subterranean Literary Journal 2.

Feature

See my designer bookmark on Dog Ear.

"If you ever thought you couldn’t read a magazine and a book at the same time then you are sorely mistaken. 

DOGEAR is a new magazine that folds into a bookmark. After 30 submissions are collected from the website, a printed version will be produced as a 'best of'.  

DOGEAR’s demographic is anybody that can read. Mostly it will be people who like to read books and book reading people tend to be open minded and a have a thirst for new ideas in the form of the printed word. This is where you come in..." Quote from the website itself.

Features and exhibits

I have done two drawings for illustration rally, one on the theme of food and the other about flowers.

From tomorrow I will have a book and some prints in this exhibition.

And lastly Ive been featured in Fuss magazine's Summer 2011 issue.

100th post

This is my 100th post!!

 

A story board done for illustration, on the short story "There's a Man in the Habit of Hitting Me on the Head with an Umbrella" by Fernando Sorrentina.

The story, as the title suggests is about a man who keeps hitting someone on the head with an umbrella. I'm not overly fond of drawing real people, or real things, so I found this a real challenge.

This is a different version of how I drew the storyboard. The book is made from a single a3 photocopy.

And even more exciting, Im in Anoraks winter magazine [coolest kids magazine ever] which is on the theme of books, it can be bought online here http://www.anorak-magazine.co.uk/index.php/issues
