Doodlings….

Couple of new doodles…

(Even) more fae sketchings….

I haven’t been able to get myself into work mode over this holiday period, so, instead of becoming stale and incapable of knowing which end of a pencil is which (it’s true… after a long period of no art, I go loopy and temporarily forget how to draw), I’ve decided to just doodle myself senseless in front of the TV at night, here’re a few drawings from the last few evenings….

Step by Step….

I’m often asked how I produce my images and whether or not I follow a set of procedures. I guess the answer is yes, I do work similarly every time I create an image, although each image has it’s own set of problems and triumphs….here’re a few I managed to capture as I moved through the image. All were painted digitally and follow along the same lines as far as ‘rules’ are concerned.

1) thumbnail sketch      2) finished drawing    3)laying down local colours    4)working through the details…

for those interested….Videos of me working can be found on my youtube channel here:

Book Available Very Soon….

Just received proof copies of my new compilation of line art from the last ten years…. I’m very happy with the way they’ve turned out, and rather excited and will be plugging them everywhere (laughs)… I’m told by Amazon that they’ll be available to buy online in a week or two… I’ll update here as I go. Here’s the cover:

New Website…

It’s been a little while since I last updated it, but I’ve redesigned my website and am fairly happy with it (for now). Here’s the link:

I’ve been busy on a few things as usual, a children’s picture book, a commissioned oil painting and a couple of personal projects on the go. here’s a little silhouette from one of my personal thingies…

Peeping… coloured…

I’ve got so much on the go at the moment, I don’t know which way is up. I started this illustration the other night and fully intended to paint it with watercolour (which I still will…eventually) but I needed something to wind down with last night so I coloured this digitally instead.

Peekaboo…..

This image had been hauting me all day yesterday, I waas up all night…I had to draw it… I’ll colour this with watercolour at some point….(maybe).

Goblin…

Another pic drawn in front of the telly last night… My studio’s so COOOOLD at the moment.
