‘Hey Babe!’ Band Night

This was a girl-fronted band night at the Compass Theatre, it was wonderful! I Got to see Colour Me Wednesday, The Tuts, Perkie and Feralus. Most of these snaps are of The Tuts, Which I managed to get when they were sound-checking.  

Tigers

I wanted to play around with a simple colour palette for once. I’ve included some process/detail images here too, because it wasn’t so messy/embarrassing.

Oh, and here’s a song by Best Coast: The Only Place - from their new album. It reminds me of the sun, Hope you enjoy!

Johnny and the Bomb - A Musical Adaption

these were some illustrations I did for A&C Black. Stage/costume suggestions to go in an educational music book based on the novel Johnny and the Bomb, by Terry Pratchett.

The Wolf Sisters

This was the pencil drawing I worked on.

The Wolf Sisters

I’ve been feeling ill lately and wanted to distract myself. I was working on this, on and off, in between a couple of commissions. I also watched The Grey… I don’t think that the wolves were given any credit! I just wanted to make them look less vicious and snarly, like they’re always drawn.

The Tuts

Snaps taken alongside Jen at a local funfair. This band is a wondrous mix of Harriet, Nadia and Beverley. Check out their Tumblr

Silhouette Fox

Just having fun. Reminds me of a cartoon I used to watch called The Animals of Farthing Wood.

Playing in the Sand

It’s so sunny now! Makes me feel so happy. Here’s an illustration of a brown boy playing in the sand with a white girl… I should draw more people of colour.

Petrify (Wired Up series)

Just recieved a copy of Petrify from the publisher. I might be getting another commission from them for another in the series but for a slightly younger audience and with more illustrations! Petrify is written by Beth Chambers.

Jen of Colour Me Wednesday

Tucked into bed all snuggley, but don’t let it fool you, she’ll strike you in half and use those halves to create an original album cover art!
