.Book.Almost.Done.

Working like mad to get this book finished, all the images are done and arranged on the pages, I've typed up the text now all i have to do is apply the text to the pages and place the pages in the book making program, :)

Next I'm gonna read up on sending work out to publishers and see if I can get anywhere with it apart from just selling it on blurb and lulu.

Below is a preview of the front and back cover.

.Mini.Project.


Setting myself project is one thing. Sticking to it is a whole new story!

So I've set myself a project which I will be forced to stick to as it will be in my face everyday and inexcusable. I've hand made another mini sketch book which I have labeled 'A Doodle A Day' you get the idea of the project from the title. Starting from February 1st 2011 I will be doodling one thing a day in this book until it's complete, not matter how good or bad the doodle may be I will do it.

This book is only small so it won't seem like a big task every time I doodle, also it will keep me drawing everyday and possible lead to ideas for other drawings.

Little Book of Big Heads








As a personal project I'm creating a Little Book of Big Heads, which are my own character designs dressed as various things and doing different stuff. The are very simple characters but fit well in to most situations and are simple to draw, coloured with watercolour paint, outline with fine liner some areas washed down to get the ink running to make the shadows. I'm currently uploading to lulu.com to be made in to a proper bound and printed book, as the book it is now is all hand painted and stitched together by me. :)
