Parenting Styles – Little Treasures Magazine

Here is a recent illustration I made for Little Treasures Magazine for an article about parenting styles – some organized and scheduled, some free flowing. It was fun to add families of farm animals to my portfolio!

Bulletin Magazine Uk

Friday, May 24th, 2013

A while back I was asked to create an illustration for Bulletin Magazine in the Uk (RCSLT). The article was about Risk Feeding elderly patients who suffer from dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) and the research into the lengthy delays in Uk hospitals. It was fun to tackle my first medical subject – thank you to my many nurse friends who helped me understand the medical terms.

Hum Studios Website illustration

hum studios – website design by Husk Creative

Earlier this year I got to work on creating this magnificent magical music machine for the talented guys at hum studios! Hum is a creative audio studio based in NZ – check out their amazing showreel! This illustration features on their website which is now LIVE!

I had so much fun drawing every musical element I could think of – topped by adding a mad audio scientist at the control panel and a monkey organ grinder… I have the best job!

Thanks to Nathan & Andy for this awesome opportunity and Lou from Husk Creative for making it come alive on the web!

double page spread

I created this illustration for Little Treasures Magazine about the choice women face after they have children, whether to go back to work or stay at home and how to find the right balance between the two. It was a fun assignment and nice to try a slightly different format than usual!

 

Sound the Ocean – Ghost Town

Monday, February 4th, 2013

Last year I also had the privilege to work on one other album, this time for a band called ‘Sound The Ocean‘. They released their new single recently called ‘Ghost Town‘ which I made the illustrations for. I’ve been quite keen on illustrated maps lately so I decided to make a map of an old abandoned ghost town. I will have the spreads of the whole CD package in my gallery soon but here are a few images of the cover, inside spread and cd.
