trying to illustrate.

So.. i'm  on part 4 of a realllly naff n ridiculous poem for children
its about an inventor and his friends.
they do stuff.
here are my first attempts.
All unfinished but Old Davis is a sweetie.

Commishh

My friend Dan asked me to do a picture of him & his uni friends for their house next year.
I had a bit of an argument with his nose & an ink spillage situation
but I think it's alreet

lousy photos cos it's late n dark,
still, atleast it's not another dodo.

dodos

stopped for painting for a while cos things were going badly
but now I have twin dodos to make up for the interval.

As you can see, rumours of their extinction were greatly exaggerated.

not quite what I hoped.. n it does look a little like a beer advert but hey :)

'attention to detail'

(for various reasons) there is very little painting in this project so most of my prep is my research photography, I've only put a bit of it up and it's all photos of photos. My camera and photoshop skills range from feeble to nonexistent xD

casual, obligatory corn on the cob studies

final piece

... finished works in progress

got my A level work back yesterday
so here's the stuff that I couldn't put onto my blog beforehand- all finished.

Emotions...
portraiture

photoshop

installation

Uni Folder

covered another folder in ink, paint n robots... leaving myself an encouraging message or two

cos I'm nervous & neurotic like that

it'smehh- much more turquoise & purple in real life but i think the indoor lighting has made it a little sallow
