Long time no post!


I can't believe its already September! and i haven't posted for 2 months, anyway here are some drawings i did a while ago, they were for a competition to illustrate Angela Carters "The Bloody Chamber" alas i did not win but at least i can put them up here, the book is a collection of short stories so the illustrations are for two of the stories in the book, the first is for the bloody chamber the second Puss in boots which makes me want to try and do more print designs.

Volcano and cave

 Jack Barraclough gave me a graphic novel/storybook idea about a volcano about a year ago(!) and i've done some finished looking pictures, hurray! They weren't planned out so maybe they won't be in the final thing, but i like them and its a start I geuss.  

 My Lolo(filipino for grandad) is from a part of the Philippines called Bicol and thats where Mayon Volcano is situated, were visiting it around christmas time! but Im a bit scared as its a pretty active one, anyway the picture is based on that and the cave was based on the underground river on Palawan island.  Hopefully we'll get to see that too.....

Monkey

I read Wu ch'eng-en' Monkey a few months ago and really didn't like the cover design, it looked like a chick lit cover with faux chinese font and if it hadn't been a present i don't think i would've picked it up( i really judge a book by its cover) so i have made my own,  It shows the stone egg that monkey is born from.

Not my usual style i suppose, but here is a design i did for a tshirt for a friends band. He's a huge fan of the AWESOME filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao, so i just thought what the heck I'm just gonna do a big ole picture of Manny! I'm not sure if his bandmates will go for it but i hope so wanna wear this Teeeeee.
