I am a 22 year old Illustrator from Cheltenham.
This is my authorship blog focusing on my personal practice into illustration and portraiture.
Portraiture work - pen and ink - Whilst keeping the same style of drawing, i have experimented with colour and shade with in the drawings - i find that the use of colour on the drawings give it more of a sense of depth about it - need to work harder on bringing emotion to my work
Sequential Illustration - ideas and experiments - 10 frame sequence - final sequence could do with more colour and more detail with in some of the frames
Self promotion piece - hand drawn with pen and ink then coloured on photoshop - really like the effect that making it digital has given it. using this method takes more time but I feel it makes the illustration look more effective
Sequential Illustration - Ernest Hemmingway The old man and the sea - Initial ideas in sketchbook, rough pencil drawings to find best solution to narrate the story
Origami Sequential Illustration - shows initial idea and experimenting with use of colour, more precise and confident marks on the page with minimal use of colour
Commissioned work
Audrey Hepburn - ink on paper
Dog for Jerry Thomas - digital - adobe illustrator
Dog for Rachel Thomas - digital - adobe illustrator
Innovation in Construction for Aidan Hughes - digital - adobe illustrator
Sequential Illustration - investigation in to age - I find that the use of black shadowing in each picture is effect and gives each piece more character - I need to use more colour in my work
