Grey Matter

Having illustrated this talk live I decided to re-create a section of it again in the studio with a bit more time. Tried to keep it fresh and spontaneous looking in the same manner as a live commission. 

Department Store For The Mind

I've been working with the lovely folk at Department Store for the Mind recently. Take a look at my illustrations for the belly band of The Record Of Good Things

Department Store for the Mind is an emporium of beautiful objects for thoughtful people. We sell stationery, crockery, household items and gifts, all designed with emotional health and wellbeing in mind. 

Most department stores focus on practical needs: the need for a new washing machine, microwave or sofa. Our focus is on psychological needs: the need to love and be loved, to feel connected and purposeful, to find meaning and pleasure in our everyday lives.

Praise for Paynes Honey - Spread The News

Tried the most fabulous heather honey this weekend and consequently was inspired to draw a large bee and honey pot.

New Facebook Page

Bit slow off the mark but have gotten myself a Facebook page. Another vehicle for updates of new work :)

Fancying a cat theme for kick off, I came up with this.

My Insatiable Boiler

New Years Clear Up - Committing Doodles and scribbles to Album

All of today and some of tomorrow will be spent sifting through 2014's doodles and committing them to scrap book or album.

Website Illustrations

Just finished this website illustration for Child Coach Lisa Parkes. She's about to re-design her site and was looking for artwork to convey her business values. 

T shirts

Dogs appear to be pretty cool right now. I'm trialling this design through Art Rookie.


They are an exceptionally good price - for now.

Cartoon Workshop

Last week two of us were running a cartoon workshop at a corporate Summer party event.

It was really very enjoyable teaching the guests some cartoon basics. Hope they had as much fun as we did !!

Slow Home Broadband ?

Our home broadband is always so slow during peak times. I hold Richard B personally responsible.....

Business Coaching Illustrations

Had a load of fun with these coaching illustrations recently ! The client needed to illustrate a presentation on the subject of integrating cultures within a business context.

In order to get a nice simple feel, I switched from my usual dip pen to a smooth rollerball and brush combo !

New Work

A nice little commission to make drawings of a couple ( past and present ) for their Golden Wedding Anniversary. Fun with a mobility scooter was specified for the latter illustration !!

I love working in black and white. It is a pity I seldom get asked to do so. 

New All Singing, All dancing, Veronica Wood Website Coming Soon!

A Party Invite

An invitation requesting guests save a date in their diaries for a beautiful wedding anniversary celebration in the Swedish Archipelago.
