Fishy Fingers

This was my entrant for this years 'Blister's on my Fingers' Blackout themed poster competition. The poster design had to work as a glow in the dark poster aswell as in the daylight. They didn't pick it so I'm off to tie a large weight around my leg, climb into a rubble sack and roll into the canal and join the fishes until they change their minds.

start of a dream

This was the start of an early morning dream that never was, due to the early awakening of my youngest. Not sure if I got the character right, but who will ever know.

Reminds me of the "Magic Roundabout" somehow.

Pete's Peculiar Pet Shop

Here's a couple of pics from a four book series for Pearson Education entitled 'Pete's Peculiar Pet Shop' written by Sheila Bird and illustrated by myself. I finished these earlier in the year and they are now hitting the shops. The series is about the vertically challenged Pete, his assistant Molly and the highs and lows of running a pet shop full of 'peculiar' pets in a town of Witches, Wizards, Royalty and Flea ridden dogs.

Not the usual toilet graffiti...
These are a couple of sneak photos of the work in progress of our artwork for Research Studios toilet http://www.researchstudios.com/.

Armed with our pens, ink, paint and vinyl cut outs we squeezed the six of us into a rather small toilet for the day. More to come soon, so watch this Bog, I mean Blog...
