Illustration - Girl in Agent Provocateur

Found an advertising photo on the Agent Provocateur website from which i made this sketch. 

Illustration - Girl with blue glasses

Found a small photo of a 'sloaney' girl in a magazine and used it as reference for this illustration. Tried loads of versions with different colours before i settled on this one.

Illustration - David Short in his studio

I rent a studio off photographer David Short. I'm really happy with this illustration but he thinks it's made him look like Hank Hill from 'King of The Hill.' 

Illustration - Isle of Wight Lifeboatman

Inspired by a trip to Black Gang Chine in the Isle of Wight (someone has to be i suppose). There was a lifeboat exhibition with dummies wearing the clothes of lifeboatmen through the ages. I took photos and used them as reference for this illustration.

Illustration - Roses Awards Invitation posters

Brahm Design in Leeds comissioned me to illustrate the Roses Design Awards invitations. They had an idea already. I just needed to create some characters who's faces suited the lines. I did the hand rendered type too. These are the posters.

Illustration - Brahm Designers Mailer

Another Brahm Design job. They asked me to do a set of illustrations which represent the different kinds of designers which work there. I came up with the characters and accessories and they were mounted on foam board and photographed in mini environments.

Bits and bobs of work with experimentation of colour.

illustration - Portrait of Dave Whitely

Let to live brand icons

This is a project i'm still working on at the minute. It's for a letting agency who are renaming themselves 'let to live'. I've illustrated a set of icons which can be used in various ways to focus on the 'live' part of their name. The colour palette isn't confirmed yet.

Illustration & Design - Whirlow Hall Farm

Whirlow Hall Farm's newsletter used to look rubbish. When i worked at iris i was given a chance to redesign it. Hopefully it looks better now.

Illustration & Design - Hungry Buddha

A Nepalese catering company's need for an identity which was flexible lead to a solution based around a set of stickers.
