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!
Dog lovers, check out this Muttley Crew. A new A3 print, currently selling fast here.
A Christmas mural attracted some graffiti of its own. The spelling does it for me!
A very animated line for a very controversial project. Commissioned by Steve Jones and Martin Lorraine at AMV BBDO, my drawings and 12 Foot 6‘s animation combine again. The film was presented at the Manchester Conference by The Minister for Transport.
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]

Occasionally I get to do some straight drawing….for an animated film thru Masius.

A chance to draw the Pink Panther for Der Spiegel – always a pleasure.
From the “builtbypeople’ series comes a new Yeti in yellow.
An old label illustration I did for Anita Roddick’s husband. Thought I’d get it on the blog before it blows up – looks a bit ropey. I’d have drunk it when I was a student!
A few animated bits and bobs from 2011, expertly put together by the indefatigable Simon Deshon.
No 1 – ‘Chosen’ for American Illustration 2012. Part of a series of photo etching prints I’m working on, loosely based on celebrity. No 2 – One of 4 pieces I did through The Creative Federation for JISC. Soon to be animated.
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.
Get along to the Working Drawings exhib if you happen to be passing through Harrow.
More Brushes fun at The X Media Lab conference in Bath. Big interior projection in The Assembly Rooms….bigger to come. Films to follow.
