Website and News

I everyone, just a quick note to let you all know that I spent all day slaving over a hot dreamweaver to make my website a bit more user friendly. I have added some more images and given each one its own url. I have also included a PO Box address in case anyone wants to send me an old fashioned perfumed letter and I added a few more awards to my Bio page that I have been lucky enough to win over the last few months. Have a look when you get a chance and let me now if you think.

In other news if you have signed up for my newsletter expect to see it waving at you in your inbox in the next week or so, I've have finally worked out the bugs and am almost ready to send it on its merry way.

I have also been selected as a finalist in the Flair Illustration Awards and will let you all know the results as soon as I do, fingers crossed!

Also have a look at this AMAZING illustrator Holly Idle, I stumbled across her work the other day and thought it was absolutely beautiful.

No Bull

Another take on my theme 'one of these things is not like the others'. I have decided to included my reference this time (mainly because I think the bull dog is so cute!) and my pencils, let me know what you think.

'O' dear!

Here are some more of my cheeky 'O' animals. I decided to create some illustrations based around the simple circle shape as part of my search for a new logo. I wanted to use the double O in Foord as a stating point, I'm not sure where this will lead in regards to my logo but I am loving creating my little round illustrations and hope to add some more to the family soon.

Swept

Here he is again! my little top hatted man is getting swept away, lucky he always has his umbrella at hand. I thought this one fit perfectly with illustration Friday's theme this week SWEPT, hope you like it!

Spoilt

This fortnights miro round-up word is SPOILT and being a little spoilt myself (with good reason of course!) I decided to do the above illustration. I used a mixture of scanned hand drawn elements and photoshop, hope you like it. Check out everyones spoilt brats at the miro round-up.

Soaked

This is one of six acrylic paintings I created focusing on this little top hatted man and his strange travels. I thought this one fit perfectly with illustration Friday's theme this week SOAKED, hope you like it!

Melody

Another illustration for the much loved Miro Roundup, this fortnights word was MELODY. After many (many, many) scrunched up pencils being tossed in the bin then set alight (I am exaggerating of course but you get my drift;)I finally decided to take some inspiration form the old greats like Charley Harper and KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID! I love working with line and really like how the addition of one spot colour makes this illustration quite graphic. Check out my fellow illustrators work at the Miro Roundup for some more soothing tunes!
