NEW PRINTS

 I added two new prints to my shop today. 'The Russian Tower' and 'Freckles' are on sale now.

Ladies

Three ladylike drawings from last week. Done in snatched moments between 'real' work. 

Drawing Sale

I have drawings piling up around me right now. So there may be a few of these coming up over the next month.

At this time I really can only accept Paypal payment from anyone outside the UK (uk-ers a cheque is fiiine). Prices and sizes vary from piece to piece, some are originals of prints and some have been hidden away unseen. Postage is not included in the price of work and will be added on when you order depending on where on earth you might be.

BIGFOOT!

I did a quick illustration for the Eastwing news page yesterday. Everyday one of the EastwingToday is October 20th and on this day in 1967 illustrators posts an image relating to that days date. Roger Patterson and Robert Gimlin caught film footage of what they claimed was a 'Bigfoot'.

I also (finally) did a new picture book report post. Only its not finished.  

 

Retail Detail

If you're in Oxford then you can now pick up prints, cards and badges by me at the newly opened Comma. You can see a wee blue bear fella in the yellow frame in this photo. You can see more pictures here.

Glasgow dwellers can now get cards and badges at the glorious Made in the Shade Maisonette. 

My christmas cards are now on sale. Get 'em while their hot etc etc. Non UK residents please ensure you order them before November 20th if you want to recieve them with plenty of time to send out to your friends!

Christmas & Coveting

It seems far too early to be chatting about christmas cards but nevertheless here we are! These three are my Christmas cards for this year. They'll be on sale in packs of three (one of each) in a few days. Once I get round to packing them all into cellophane. Although it is, as mentioned, perilously early for festive things I'm putting them on sale this month so that lovely folk outside the UK can get theirs ordered in time to still be able to send them out! Makes sense eh?

Today I am wishing I didn't have giant feet and I could get me a pair of these super cute wellies from aigle (ok actually if by some miracle my feet did suddenly become normal size I'd probably go out any buy something more exciting than wellies...but they'd be on my list for sure.)

I am also wishing that the UK shipping on these nice, simple watches wasn't TWICE the price of the watch itself. Thats just plain stupid (americans who want to buy me presents? i want the purple or the grey please.)

Eastwing Brochure

This is my spread from this year's Eastwing promotional brochure. Having been super unhappy with the work I submitted last minute (the result of a combination of having only just joined the agency two days before the deadline and a debilitating lack of confidence in whatever i was trying to do) I am happy to say that I'm far more satisfied with this year's efforts. The brochure for 2010/11 sees all the Eastwing illustrators take on certain dates within a month and illustrate the events on those dates. I did the Cheltenham Jazz Festival, The publication of the Great Gatsby and the great Fire and Earthquake of San Francisco.

If you're in Glasgow be sure to stop by the wonderful Welcome Home to enter their birthday raffle! I did this piece for it a couple of weeks back and if you enter it may well be yours! You can also win work by some of my favourite talented folk; Verity Keniger, Lindsay Grime, Jen Collins and Richard Sanderson!

I hadn't noticed that a load of things on my shop were in need of re-listing. I've also reduced a fair few things too, including the hand-painted wolf lady prints! Please feel free to stop by fully re-stocked shop!
