What have you been up to? I'm a business now!

Hi guys, if you're reading this and haven't been here before, a big warm welcome to you! Please have a stay and look at my blog, and if you like what you see (which isn't that much yet) then go and have a look at my loop account where all my illustrations currently sit in a very cool fashion for your enjoyment....

Now that house keeping is out of the way...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have been a busy little bee since I finished my last elective for my illustration degree. I have officially started my business which is... yeah, you'd probably guess by the name, ILLUSTRATIONS! Yeah! Woot!
Some of my proudest pieces include:
The Luneys and the illustrations that I have done for them..

These were a part of a year long project that I did for my third and final year of my illustration degree. Basically, they are a race of rocks who are gifted with the power of imagination. Don't think they're perfect though, they have their ups and downs, their predators and tonnes of schooling to go through!

Character combination concepts

I did a series of character concepts that involve character combinations which were then to be used for environmental pieces. I am most proud of these pieces because they went through many stages of progress. The Lupaquilleque to the left here especially went through many different stages until I was happy with it (and my lecturer was too!)  To the left is how it started off. I also did about ten other copies of this one, and many countless sketches in my sketchbook! I think I can see a clear difference between this one and the illustration above..

Book covers

Anyone who knows me, knows that I am practically in love with my own characters, and that I love writing just about as much as I love to draw. For a very long time I have wanted to publish my own novels with my illustrations, so it's only natural that I would love to draw book cover illustrartions and design their layouts. To the left is book 3 of my series, Gemini Warriors.
