Some more samples...



A couple more images from the project I'm working on - some fantasy postcards. Here we have a temple built from sugar buried deep in a rainforest and The happy apple guesthouse, enough said. Yeah.... The plan is to end up with a book telling a sort of travel journal. I'm interested mainly in how mundane postcards are and approach these weird postcards as if they are pretty normal places to visit.

Here are a couple of photos from our trip to Paris that I've had developed so far, hopefully I may have some more soon that could be of interest. The little easel I saw by the sacre coeur in Montmatre and it just looked so quintessentially Parisian and quaint! It was an awesome trip and we got to see loads of cool stuff. The highlight probably had to be the antoine and manuel exhibiton, those two are nutters! A whole exhibition just full to bursting with amazing ideas.

Grannies.

These lovely ladies were made in response to a character brief. they're called (L-R) Valerie, Doris and Betty. I sewed them, stuffed them and then hand painted them with gouache paint. They like to get drunk of sherry, hence why they don't stand up very well.


Daffynitions


We had to make up a definition for something that doesn't have a definition, hard to explain. But basically this idea was inspired by the amazing Michael Macintyre.

Egremont. noun. Trying to guess where the train doors will stop on the platform.

Doctor foster went to Gloucester.

I think this is my Favourite animation thingy so far. Just another bit of fun on a rainy afternoon. I think I'm probably too impatient to do animation properly. but one day there will be something of worth on here.

Look what i found.

Aha! This is basically my flipbook made digital! its the result of the photo in my first post. very cute. I am told to accredit my audience with a brain but for those of you who just don't "get it" (usually my brother chris when it comes to my artwork) those are actually my thoughts popping out of my head.
