Onions for Sept

25 Aug









Here's September's onion drawings for Gardens Illustrated, I'm really pleased with the skin texture and the colours I chose.

This afternoon I'm taking a break from drawing the 15 varieties of squash, pumpkin and courgette for a commission due Friday, and going into London for dinner with a friend. Really excited about catching up, but this POURING rain sucks and is only made appealing by the opportunity to wear my red wellies and use my lovely birdcage umbrella!

WOWEEE

22 Aug


WOWEEE very busy week!

Here's a drawing created for Stranger&Stranger for their pitch for a new Kaffir Lime Vodka packaging label.

I've started work on a new regular slot in Delicious Magazine. Each month I'll be illustrating their "History of Food" page, the first month is Parkin which is a yummy sticky ginger bread. I'm really delighted to get such a fun regular job, and I CAN'T WAIT to show you the border I've created, but obviously must behave and wait until it's published!

I'm also working on the Oct issue of Garden's Illustrated - Pumpkins, the patterns and textures (Read more...)

Gardens Illustrated – Roots

2 Aug





Celeriac's are really nobbly veg, terrific to draw and delicious as mash. I discovered this veg as a result of creating my regular illustrations for Alys Fowler's article in Gardens Illustrated - this new issue is currently in the shops.

I'm off out now to celebrate Steve's birthday with friends in London, have a wonderful weekend whatever you're up to x

Artsweek 2010 at Savill Garden

27 Jul


I really enjoyed returning to teach at the Savill Garden Artsweek 19th-25th July.

I worked with a fantastic group of adults "Illustrating Plants" and as a lovely touch the venue laid on delicious afternoon tea as part of the session! YUM

The family weekend workshops saw giant butterfly sculptures created on the Saturday, and caterpillar puppets on the Sunday - I couldn't resist showing you some of their beautiful work!

Today I am finishing drawing lots of onions for the Sept issue of Gardens Illustrated, (I'm really pleased with them and can't wait to show you!) and Wed, Thurs, Fri (Read more...)

SaturDADS in the sunshine

23 Jul






Here's some images from a recent commission from the Englemere Decorative & Fine Arts Society to devise and deliver a creative workshop for the local community.

I created a fun (and very messy!) workshop for SaturDADS, a bi-weekly club for dads and other male carers to spend quality time with their children 0-5yrs held at a local Sure Start Centre.

I drew a series of murals onto lining paper; dinosaurs, boats and fish and then the kids worked with their Dads to paint and print on the drawn murals using a range of objects including toys, shoes and marshmallows. The (Read more...)
