Thames Poster

I did this for that London Transport Museum/ AOI competition- a poster for the Thames. This is based on the under-appreciated stretch of the river beyond the Thames Barrier. The image is based on my sketchbook scrawls from a morning visit. Going to give it a couple more hours' loving soon I think.

Posemaniacs Figures

I've been doing quite a bit of Posemaniacs sketching lately. 30 and 90 seconds.

 

Anticlimax

 Pat bought me this Kinder Surprise-style Mario egg the other day, uncovered in the corner of a shop in Chinatown. I'd like to imagine that this discovery fitted the mould of Indiana Jones or Lara Croft chancing upon a priceless artefact.

I eagerly peeled back the foil and devoured the disgusting soapy chocolate (which was probably ill-advised, as I'm almost certain it was several years out of date). Trembling with excitement, I popped open the capsule, expecting to be greeted by a beautiful Mario or Yoshi figure that had stepped straight out of a Gamecube. 


Instead, I found this:

The Shard above rooftops.

Legs

At the the Wellcome Collection. It's a really good museum (of medical stuff)

Bizarre Tree

Came across this tree. I genuinely had to touch it to make sure it was real.

The branches have grown into loops. I'm not sure how that can happen, but it looks pretty amazing.
