new product!

I've made a bespoke Woodland Name print that is now available to order in my Etsy Shop!

Church Illustrations

I've recently done some more Church Illustrations, one for the Order of Service for a wedding, another for a Christening and another was just to keep to celebrate the wedding. 

I have added this as an option that you can now find in my etsy shop here

Spring is around the corner!

My favourite thing to do at this time of year is to spot signs of spring. Little bits of green that hold the promise of longer days.

New work at Ludlow Food Centre!

Hello poor, neglected blog - sorry it's been so long. Well, January was a bit of a blur of wonderful wedding commissions which I'm not going to share until after the big days (which are in the summer).

So in the meantime, I can say that my exhibition at Ludlow Food Centre has been extended until the end of the month. I've shuffled things around and added some new bits in so do pop up the stairs and have a look if you are passing! 

A new video

Over the last few months I have done three A6 drawings of bracken in different stages - green, yellow and now I've drawn the third; brown. I set the camera up before I started and so you can watch the drawing appear! You can subscribe to my You Tube channel to be notified when I upload a new video.

Recent commissions...

Well, where has the time gone?!

In December I did quite a few different commissions and projects - some I can't show yet, but it's time to have a look at a couple of them!

First up was a present for a very special little girl;

I have decided to offer this as a listing in my shop; have a look here!

This is a commission that I did at the end of last year, for a bride who asked me to draw three flowers in her wedding bouquet as a gift for her mum as a thank you present. I think this is such a lovely idea - I really enjoyed doing it. 

First I did a rough sketch to send to the client before going ahead with the final illustration

I've also added this as an option to my shop - it doesn't have to be wedding bouquet flowers, it could be a favourite or a few favourites! Have a look at the listing here. 

later and later...

I very nearly decided to leave today's drawing until tomorrow, as it is late ... I've been changing, tweaking and adding listings to the shop!

However, I decided to just buck up and draw quickly - not my best but I love the smells of Christmas - the tree, mulled wine, gingerbread and all those warm, cosy smells - this seemed to be a good way to symbolise that.
