Illustration Friday - Heights 2

Yay!! I have finished my balloon illustration!!

This image started off as a doodle in my sketchbook, which I decided to develop using screen-printing techniques. I then used some of these elements and combined them with other textures using my Wacom tablet.

I wonder where Molly and Teddy are going today...

Illustration Friday - Heights

New heights for Molly in more than one way...

This illustration is taken from a sketch that I did during the early stages of developing my character. Continuing my experimentation with my Wacom tablet I started adding textures and depth to the sketch.

Molly has also started to develop a beautiful friendship with Teddy. I'm looking forward to sharing more of these two with you soon...

It would be great to hear your feedback. What do you think Molly and Teddy are watching..??

Many thanks for your time.

Illustration Friday - Puzzled

I have been experimenting with my new Wacom tablet this week and this is one of the results. I don't often draw animals, so thought I would have a play with it whilst experimenting with my new equipment.

I think it is going to be worth the investment and the start of a great partnership!

Illustration Friday - Intention

I have recently been working on a commission for an illustrated book called 'Bend Your Knees'. The book showcases a collection of artwork from a variety of different illustrators.

The book is being sold to raise money for the Lake Victoria Disability Center in Mosuma, Tanzania, and will be available in Analogue and The Red Door Gallery in Edinburgh very very soon.

I'm pleased to share my image with you for this week's Illustration Friday topic, 'Intention' :)

Molly - Part 1

This is a little peak of a project that I am working on at the moment. I have recently been doing lots of story-boarding and planning but I am finally starting to add colour to my illustrations.

This little girl is called Molly and she has a very interesting tale to tell.

More to come soon...
