A little more lino!

After I got my Lino cutting set for Christmas, I got a little hooked! Working on doing some prints, hopefully available soon!

Lino printing

For Christmas I got a lino cutter and some lino. Here's my first attempt! I love it and can't wait to do some more!

Spring!

Spring is here! So i drew a quick bee!

Paris

Me and Josh had a 3 day trip to Paris about a week ago. It was amazing. Cold but so lovely. We did lots of sightseeing and drank an abundance of hot chocolate! We also had tickets to the Ghibli Exhibit, which was awesome! Here's a few photos i snapped and a frame from the Ghibli exhibit that you get added into!

Featured!

I'm really pleased because today i found out that my work in progress mole piece was featured on the official Dribbble Blog!! Here!

I really love using dribbble the community is so lovely and i've been getting some great feedback on there.

If you use it too, come say hi. My profiles here

Another Rough

Played about with the brushes again

WIP

Here's a quick peek at some new stuff i'm roughing out. Also playing about using the new digital brush sets i got.

Deluxe Collection II by Lorenzo Etherington

I picked up this amazing bundle from the post office the other day. A HUGE 600 page sketchbook, full of stunning art work, designs and illustrations. All by the talented Lorenzo Etherington. I also got this original piece of artwork from his sketchbook too! If you haven't seen Lorenzo's work check it out here

Old concept

This was a concept for something that never went any further. I thought he was cute!

I've updated my Etsy store and added a bunch of stuff!

Taxes

As usual i'm pushing it with being waaaaay behind on doing my tax stuff. It's partly organised (sort of) I'm distracting myself by playing around with some new brushes i bought, here's one of the doodles.

Happy New Year!

I realise I'm rubbish at blogging. This year I'm going to attempt to keep it more up to date with sketches and doodles as well as finished pieces. 

I'll hopefully use January to give the blog an update and add some more bits to my shop. 

Happy New Year! X

The Human Next Door!

So it's officially completed and with the printers. All being well we will have the comic ready for Thought Bubble this weekend! Me and Nikki will be on table 135 in New Dock Hall. Hopefully see you there!

New Prints!

Some more laser cut wood designs!

Bristol 2014

Soooooo it's Bristol comic con this weekend! That's come round fast! Unfortunately i won't have any plush items for sale, and my comic has been put back until Thought Bubble all due to me breaking my wrist and making everything difficult! But i'll have some new prints, cards and laser cut badges and necklaces! Come say hi if your there!

Quick screen peek

Sneak peek at some new stuff

Broken

I broke my wrist playing roller derby :(

I'm still here!

Sorry for the complete lack of work or updates for a while. Just before christmas my flat got damaged by the storm and ended up leaking a lot. Christmas day was then spent moving stuff to avoid any damage to them. One of which was my computer which has meant delays on me finishing work for things and starting a lot of new projects. But now we have a new home and slowly our belongings are coming back. Ive got a massive list of things to finish and also the comic to work on. Hopefully have the studio up and running in a week or two fingers crossed. Watch this space for new stuff!

New card designs
