Portfolio Pieces - Day Two

Another portfolio piece. Here is another bee, this time in a different style.

Portfolio Pieces - Day One

I would like to have a few new promotional pieces in time for my degree show - to update the site a bit and to use on press releases and pitches and presentations and the like. Every day I hope to post a new one here on the blog, with the best also going on the website.

Day One : A bee and a thistle in my distinctive style.



If you like my work and are interested in working with me on a project, please email me.

The Beginning of the End

And here we are - our exhibition is early next month, after that I will no longer be a student. Perhaps I can call myself an illustrator.

Many things have happened - there will be a huge update and revamp of the site in time for the exhibition, along with lots of promotional work to try and get myself into the industry truly.

There is lots to do in between now and the 4th of June, when the exhibition starts (like printing the exhibition pieces!), an essay, a big presentation and fund-raising. But, the thing I want to concentrate on is creating some fun little promotional pieces to print as postcards etc to hand out to publishers and editors.

So - I've decided to give myself a bit of a challenge! A picture a day which can be used for promoting myself. It has to either be a new picture, or a revamp of an Arcana frame or page fully coloured that can be used as such. Tomorrow will be the first day - today I'm going to try and update this site a bit and get things ready and settled.

Watercolour Illustrations

Some new pieces added to the site today, including a few watercolour and mixed media pieces created for a fundraising project at university.

I felt that participating in the fundraiser would help people to see my works - the fundraiser is for the third years final exhibition, and they will be showing the "postcards" created by students in a exhibition, and inviting members of the public to purchase them to raise money.

I hope that people will see my works, and note my name, and like them! I love the thought that someone could pay money for my original watercolour postcards, and read the back and find thier way back here.
(If you do - hello, thankyou very much for buying one of my postcards, It really means a great deal to me).
Also I hope that people will like my style enough to commission me for further projects, and start to create a name for myself in the industry, even while I am still studying.
