A post-Christmas must-buy! When Julius Weidemann contacted me a while back I didn’t realise the body of work I put together was for such a great publication. Taschen’s 100 Illustrators, edited by Julius and Steve Heller, is a compendium of all the Illustrators Now books, edited from 600 to 100 ‘best of the best’. It’s certainly a privilege to be amongst so many great exponents of our profession. Thanks Julius, Steven, Daniel and Nora. Not many left on Amazon!
Two new A3 prints, ‘Midlife Cyclist’ and ‘Man and Bike’ have been flying off the shelves. Grab one here.
Dog lovers, check out this Muttley Crew. A new A3 print, currently selling fast here.
My first commercial Christmas card. Sold out in a week so I’ll probably try it again.
Local lifestyle mag BathLife entrusted me with their Christmas cover. A brave editor went with the rough which made it stand out like a shining star amongst its glossy competitors. Also gave me a feature. Thanks Bathlife.
A Christmas mural attracted some graffiti of its own. The spelling does it for me!

The ‘making of’ film for Curo’s ‘Learning Space’ drawings. A forward thinking company willing to embrace work that’s not done on a computer. Wall drawings, transferred panels and window vinyls all combined to create an exciting workspace.
Just doing this 59Fifty I promised Jim Wannemacher at New Era two years ago [whoops, found the box stashed at the back of the studio]

Adobe commission to do a live-draw at their launch party for CS6 and Creative Cloud at the amazing 1 Marylebone. The VIP guests could tag their illustrations on Facebook the following morning [if they could find themselves]. Drawn on iPad using Photoshop Touch, importing and filtering shots of the venue and guests then scribbling to make it look like the craziest party.
X MediaLab, the internationally acclaimed digital media think-tank came to Bath last month to run one of their globe-trotting Digital workshops. They invited us to live-draw to add some texture and creativity to entertain delegates. We drew on iPads and the drawings were projected onto the walls inside the Ballroom of the world famous Assembly Rooms where Jane Austen would have danced – to a different iTune of course Mr Darcey. Shot by Joe Brown, directed by Simon Deshon at The Creative Federation.
