Textures and Colour study

Late night painting and trying out some brush textures is a great way of unfocussing your mind and coming up with new ideas. Paint paint paint... :)

'I am Jake' is printed!

In my last post I showed some artwork from the book "I am Jake" that I recently illustrated for Orkney Young Carers...well it's here! Ta Daaaah! It's finally printed and has been distributed all across Orkney schools and drama groups. I am so proud to have been part of something that was not only written by my mother, but that it is also going to help in children's education all across my home town! I hope they enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed drawing it.

I am Jake

Some recent freelance work that I produced for a novel written by Pamela Beasant, for the Orkney Young Carers. It was called "I Am Jake". The story was set in Orkney, and centred around a young boy who cares for his disabled brother. I really loved doing this, I hope you enjoy!
