Just a quickie before I start work for the day, I’ve got a big job on right now, it’s taking up a lot of time (in a good way) won’t be able to post any of it for a fair while but in the meantime, here’s a wee fae feller riding a birdie…..

Howling Moon- new book, new illustrations….
I recently completed cover art and interior silhouettes for a publisher in the UK called Wyvern Publications, the story’s about a ytoung boy who finds out he’s got werewolf blood (shudder). It’s a lovely little book and I was very happy to receive my copies in the mail today, here’s a link to the publisher’s site:
cover art:
here’re a couple of interior illustrations….
Long Dress- Pencils and Inks….
This is today’s warm-up sketch, I thought I’d ink it also. Here’s the before and after…
Mermaid…
Haven’t had much time for sketching around all the commissions I have on the go at the moment, but I did manage to find the time to sketch this up for an old school pal….
Sketchbook stuff…
More doodling. I love wildlife books- have heaps of em’. I also love drawing birds, owls particularly…..
Finished….
This watercolour has taken a wee while but I got there at last. I’ve been tinkering about with it for over half a year in the evenings in front of the telly. I find watercolour so very relaxing, I’ll definately be doing more…
Dinosaur sketchings…
Today’s warm-up sketches… based on one of my son’s toys (note to self***very handy reference***)
Speedy Sketchings….
My art, due to the high level of detail I’m having to put into current projects, is beginning to stiffen up… So in order to get over this, I’m going to sketch myself senseless every morning before I begin my commissioned work. Here’re a couple of colour doodles I painted today (photoshop)….
Tooth fairy-Updated…
This is a very old drawing, I’ve posted it here before but I’ve always found it lacked a little something, I’ve tidied it up a little and am happier with it (for now…). Here it is along with the line art….]
Leaves In Watercolour…. (still at it)….
I’ve been working on this watercolour for maybe 7-8 months on and off, a little here and a little there around commissioned work, The hard work is starting to pay off and I can (at last) see results, only another 6 months or so to go (hehe).
