The North

Thought I'd put up some drawings and photos from my time up North, I spent a few days with my friend Daniel who I haven't really seen since graduation last year so it was nice to see him again.


Me and Daniel did speak a little bit about doing a project together. Something involving a viking. In my own version of the story I wanted a little viking boy to go on a hunt for a werewolf. I haven't quite figured it out yet in my head.



I also took a few photos of some the places I went to. I really liked going to Whitby.







And I managed to finish some of my own projects, my rejected octopus from the Southampton museum.


And just some drawings I made whenever I managed to sit down and think.





I think Daniel seemed to know quite a bit about the local history- one that stood out in particular was the hanging of a monkey who was believed to be a french spy. So I made a quick Monkey spy on the train home from Newcastle.

New doodles

Going down to Cambridge tomorrow to support a friend in his MA interview (hes applying for the same course as me.) and after that, I'll be travelling up north! I was going to bring my sketchpad with me, hopefully I'll be able to spend the next few days enjoying the sights and doing some drawing...

Moustache Octopus

I've been working on a couple of Illustration projects these past few weeks which helps keep my mind busy-its probably best I didn't really show them on my blog for now so I thought I'd take a few photos from little square sketchpad.

One of the drawings from my book I haven't really scanned yet. Been trying to think of some British red coat soldiers to draw.

Just an abandoned concept from a bunch of ideas I pitched to the Sea City Museum. Below is the rough and this one is the more finished concept. I'm sure I'll finish this little drawing eventually.
