Sketchbook Stuff!

Just Some sketchbook work I've done lately!

Drew this ghostly lady whilst listening to Wish You Well by Dum Dum Girls. Such a lovely song *sigh*

...Of course, I'm anticipating the new Metal Gear Solid V game!

Listening to Colour Me Wednesday. I'll be creating some art for them soon for their new album!

Ahhhh, the lovely Perkie, do listen to her stuff. Her voice is like honey. I think she's secretly a member of Fox Hound but I'm not sure...

Haha, this is Dale, a contestant from Masterchef 2013. I just thought he'd look good as a sailor oright! Gawd. 

The Boss, Big Boss's mentor. One of the most human characters in the Metal Gear Solid franchise. She is amazing.

Sketchbook Stuff: Grimes and Catwoman

Hello,

Just some sketchbook stuff I've been doing.

Sketchbook Stuff

Not feeling well! Here's some sketchbook stuff I've been doing to pass the time.

 Food & Drink - here's Perkie sipping away and Jen with an orange on her face.

 Fashion - I like that tartan blazer thing and the braids.

Wildlife - an inky lion.

Kate Nash Signed My Sketchbook!

Kate Nash signed my sketchbook! This was when The Tuts were supporting her at The Shacklewell Arms. Picking an animal from it, she said she quite like bongos, haha. I gave her that ink doodle I did of her in return.

Kate Nash Ink Doodle

Hello,

Just an inky doodle I did. If you look carefully you can see my vain efforts to draw her using a dark pencil. Got angry and rubbed it all out and started fresh using a brush pen.

I might be seeing her tomorrow at The Shacklewell Arms, London. Fingers crossed!).

Spitalfield City & Hackney City Farm

Hello!

Really wanted to draw animals, so I dragged my brother and a friend along to these small but beautiful, (and very smelly) farms. I remembered why I drew dead animals in museums, (they don’t move). The best part of the visit was of course the working farm cats! There were signs asking not to pet them…I petted them.

Animals 'n Stuff

Hello,
these are some ink drawings I did a while back. I scanned them in and played around with them on PS. I'm currently working on some panels for an educational book commissioned by OUP. It's just a few pages but  I'm working on the story of Dick Whittington and his wonderful cat.

Mr Bowie

Hello,

This is Mr Bowie in a suit and bow-tie.

Inky Stuff

Yellow,

Some stuff I've drawn recently when I should have been working. I don't know if I've mentioned already, but I got a small commission doing some panels for OUP. A the moment I'm doing stuff on Dick Whittington. I'll be getting another story soon.

Isle of Wight

Hello,

this is a sketch I did at the Isle of Wight. A drawing of Hat standing on a cliff looking over at the sea.

Lykke Li

Hello,

Listening to the tracks from Lykke Li's wonderfully crafted second album titled Wounded Rhymes. How poetic!

(The illustration is of the splendid lykke Li herself.)

Study: Chair

Hello,

Just a study from a photograph, (link below). Might be going to Legoland with a few friends coz like Thorpe Park is way too hardcore apparently! Either than the blatantly extortionate prices, deathly long queues and vomit ...It should be a fun day?

Sketchbook: silly stuff

Hello,

More stuff from a small sketchbook. Some of it's from the Natural History Museum, other stuff, like the inky stuff was just doodling for fun creating dragony, zombie-ish, foxy stuff.

Listening to Lykke Li, particularly this song: I follow Rivers. A very haunting song that seems to creep into the folds of my brain, but strangley elating. The video is beautifully simple.

Sketchbook: Billie Holiday

Sleepy,

just did this drawing, shouldn't be though. Need to finish work!!

Sketchbook: Doodles and Ridiculous Stuff

Hello,

I've been doodling and also playing around with ink. These are scans of some of the pages from my current A5 sketchbook.
