Goldilocks
Yay!
Received my own copy of Goldilocks from OUP. Can't wait for Snow White now! I don't think it's on sale yet...it's not up on the publisher site. It's a schooly, learning aid sorta book so you would buy it directly from the publishers.

Goldilocks update
Good news good news!
I'll be receiving a copy of Goldilocks and the Three Bears soon! I haven't got any photos I've taken myself, but heres a link to my agency blog: right here so you can get a glimpse. The snaps are a bit unfocused but what the heck, I'm chuffed.

More Goldilocks stuff


A spread, and a page from Goldilocks. I'm working on a sample illustration of Snow White now - I'll put that up some time.
Watched Poison Ivy at Jen's yesterday whilst stuffing dried figs and popcorn into my mouth. The figs were nice but the film was...hmm okayish, it was very strange. One of the main characters looked like Otto from The Simpsons as Hat pointed out!!

Goldilocks Final Artwork


It's been a while!
I thought I'd post some final artwork on Goldilocks. These are some of my favourite ones. I can't wait to see it in printed form of course! I'm just glad it's all finished... phew.
Oh, and you Must read, (or at least have a look at) the, Nausicaa: of the Valley of the Wind series, story and art by Hayao Miyazaki - it's such a great graphic novel. It's clearly an extension on the film but holds its own with tremendous originality. I borrowed the sereis from the library and am reading the last in the series. Some of the panels are just so beautiful in compositoin, I feel like cutting them out and pasting them onto my wall where I can stare at them and learn something. May be I'll buy them all one day. I've already got number 5 for 80p!! from a comic store at Harrow. It was just sitting there on it's own in a box of rejects with a bright yellow 'reduced price' label. Crazy Crazy.
PS:
I may be doing some artwork on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs *fingers Crossed*

Goldilocks Roughs


I've been meaning to put these up for ages actually. I'm waiting for feedback now. These are some of my favourites among the roughs I produced. I feel the text spaces really made me think about how I composed the drawings. I used photographs of my niece for reference, it makes all the difference. :)
