I have well and truly moved over to tumblr, please join me there!

Postal Jackpot!

Yesterday I received a selection of post including Random Spectacaluar which is published this month by St. Jude's. It has some illustrations I did for them to accompany an article about Craft by Hugh Aldersey-Williams. Also in the postal bundle was some Christmas cards I designed for the Teenage Cancer Trust, Bulletin magazine featuring an editorial illustration by me and the jacket cover I did for The Mara Crossing by Ruth Padel. I completed this for Random house last January so its great to finally see it published.

I'm in the last photo, lying on my belly!

LOUD TATE WORKSHOP

apologies for not posting in ages, terrible slacker I am. I am happy to annouce that Zombie Collective will be holding a drawing workshop extravaganza in the South Duveens of Tate Britain this Saturday. So if you fancy a bit of drawing and all round fun (there will be MC-ing!) then drop by between 12-5!

Here are some pages of gruesome body parts we'll be using for collage:

ECCA

Zombie Collective did some work for ECCA: Enterprise centre for the creative arts and they were kind enough to put my illustration on the homepage!

Yesterday I went into YCN to sign 50 copies of my artcard which will be sent out to new and existing clients.

I've been working on a big project with design studio Cai and Kyn for the Clerkenwell Post, a magazine that will be distributed during Clerkenwell Design week at the end of this month. This is a map that will feature inside:

motivational characters for YCN

SPEAR'S

editorial illustration for SPEAR'S about the obsessive nature of book-collecting

bookcover

this is a rough of a cover I've been working on during my placement at Random House. i probably shouldn't disclose the title as parts of it will no doubt change, but its a hardback poetry book about human and animal migration...

Stationary

YCN commissioned me to produce a header for their stationary range. I had to incorporate the logo into the design and had fun going all space themed.

JACK WILLS

Just before christmas I was commissioned by Jack Wills to design a set of postcards for valentines day. They were insistant that the cards weren't overly romantic or cute so i had a lot of fun thinking up anti-valentines themes and slogans. The cards are now available in all Jack Wills stores, so if you're ever nearby one, pop in and grab a few!

you can also purchase them from the website

rosettes

I was commissioned by YCN to do a set of rosette puzzles for Endsleigh insurance. They went for a different direction in the end but this is some of the work I produced for them:
