Yarra Valley Water

These are for an educational picture book about water and stuff. Haven't done all the pages yet, but I'm plugging away. These were all done in Adobe Illustrator in a much "looser" style than my usual stuff. Still unsure how I feel about it.

Goodbye!

Trogg returns to Zartor with a gift for his fellow warriors

Man, I'm so glad I got the roughs done for this book. Shortest deadline ever. Not looking forward to getting the final art done in just two weeks (not to mention the other book I've got one week to finish).

Early Jim Henson Work

Check out these ads for Wilkin's Coffee done by Jim Henson, before the Muppets even began! Funny stuff.

Out of this World

These are character concept sketches for a new job. It's a sci-fi story for young teen boys who are reluctant to read. It's called "Out of this World". Super-imaginative title, no?

Some work, why don't I?

Here are some pictures I did for work.

Moby Dick 2: The Dickening


Math is boring!


Mary had a little lamb and it did stuff. Teacher does not like.


This was for a rhyme about a dude with seven wives. And each wife had seven sacks. Look at all them sacks. I think I kinda pimped the guy out a little too much. Maybe I should have gone for more of a Catholic look (they can have more than one wife, right?) I've yet to hear the feedback but I suspect they may object.


Don't ask me what is happening here. You can just make it up yourself.


"Rain, rain, go to Spain." Spain has the odd misfortune of rhyming with rain. Hence it has forever been doomed to use in occultish curses on the weather.

Goodbye.

Some old lady for work.

Roger Raindrop REEEEEEEMIIIIIIIIIIIX!!!!

Roger Raindrop

Did this today using Adobe Illustrator. It took far longer than it should have.

Toot, Whistle, Plunk And Boom (Disney - 1953)

Found this marvellous short on YouTube. I'd never seen it before. Disney doing their take on the stark "modern" look of animation that was picking up speed in the 50's, blended seamlessly, of course, with beautifully animated characters.

Bits and Bobs

For the English text-books I'm working on:

Logo for a production company:

Album cover concept for The Five Venoms:

Did these for a Canadian comedy improv group called PROJECTproject. They've got a festival on at the moment called Combustion:

And finally, here's a poster I did for comedian Sammy J's latest show:

Later!

Werk

I did an earlier version of this singer, but they asked for it to look more "Amy Winhouse-ish" only without the skank:

Definitely a Jurassic Park influence here:

Wake up early, drink some milk, eat your breakfast and brush your goddamned teeth:

This is the second time I've illustrated "Mary Had a Little Lamb" for work:

I thought this was cute:

Bye!

2001/2008

Just joining on on the "draw yourself as a teen" meme.

MOO minicards

My MOO minicards arrived today, and they're awesome.

Where did he get that straw?

For work.

WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't ask me why he's walking a dog indoors.

Work.

Here are some boring pictures that I got paid to draw.

Textbook Stuff

These are for work. Not much to add.

Images

I haven't been making much art lately that isn't work-related. I don't know why that is. I feel like I want to.

I have, however, been collecting images for some time. Images that inspire, make me smile, laugh, think, frown. I thought I might post some of them here.

I'm not going to reference the origins of these, so I apologise to the original creators in advance.

Here we go.
