A Blast from the Past....

Work is so slow at the moment (as in there isn't any) that I've had an opportunity to go through some of my old files of work. I came across these....all hand painted from eons ago. They were for a now sadly defunct magazine called 'Stories for Children'. This magazine was brilliant, it normally had about 5 to 6 original kids stories illustrated by some of our best artists (including Norman Beardsly...who used to do most of the illustrations on the 'Rainbow' kids show)

I miss those days when everything seemed a hell of a lot easier than they are today!

I'm still here.....in spirit at least!

Hello one and all, just a quickie update as I've got loads on at the moment. I've been working on 3 different commissions all at the same time, including a huge 78 illo job which is burning me out rapidly.

I've just completed another job for the good old BBC 'Doctors' programme, I'll show all that work later to the transmission date. As usual, it was a fun job to do, their team always give me brilliant directions but totally trust me to interperate the illustrations in my own style. This commission was slightly different from the last two as all I can say for now is that it wasn't a mock comic cover. Personally, I can't wait to see what they do with the finished show, it should be interesting!
