book cover

heres a sneaky peak at my entry for the penguin design award this year, book is 'One Hundred Years of Solitude' by Gabriel Garcia Marquez.

third year

well i guess its been a fairly hectic time in my final year so far as i havnt updated this in far too long. well what have i been up to?
last term i did a fair bit of editorial style illustrations such as this piece on antidepressants:


i really enjoy the quick working pace of this kind of thing, it forces me to come up with new ideas quickly.

i also did some pieces based on extracts from Eon by great sci-fi author Greg Bear:


i tried new ways of working with these, trying to keep away from the computer until necessary, caused some stress but made me rediscover my love of actual drawing, i think my process as it stands now is much more well-rounded because of it.

all the editorials and book extract pieces are online on my flickr at
