Gonna get back into the ol' blogging game. Here are some still lifes. The second one is an apple.

Boston Globe Illustration in the Flesh

I received this in the post at the weekend. I was fortunate that a friend over in the US was able to pick up a copy of The Boston Globe from a few weeks ago with my illustration inside. So here it is. Turns out the picture eventually ran in black and white (I had to provide a colour and a B&W version). I think I quite like it in monochrome.































First post of 2013, so I should also add- Happy New Year!

Horse Portrait- "Midnight"

A final post of the year- here's a horse portrait commission I recently completed.

Hope everyone's having a great Christmas (or just a great December), and very best wishes for the new year!

Illustration for SCHOTT Glass Manufacturers

An advertising illustration I did a while back for SCHOTT North America.  The illustration formed an advertisement for the company's industry-leading green tech home glass appliances. The client had a pretty clear idea of how they wanted the image to look. Ad agency Doe Anderson shot the photography, and I painted in the rest of the image.

I was told that the animals must not look too 'Disney', as the advertisement was going to be used at an event held at Disneyland.

Cats

Had to pull some cat sketches together for a client. Thought I'd deposit them here too.

Illustrations for 'Silentnight'

I'm finally now able to show some illustrations I've been doing on-and-off throughout the year for Silentnight beds. I was asked to produce some new images of their familiar hippo and duck mascots in various scenarios, for use in brochures and print material. I'm not sure whether there are more of these to do or not.
