Beat The Monsters
This is an illustration I recently did for Little Treasures Magazine for an article about children and anxiety. I was very scared of shadows when I was young - fortunately I love them now :)
H is for Horse Riding
This illustration is part of a project I started a wee while ago. With the olympics in full swing it seemed an appropriate time to post it!
Extra Curricular Magazine - blog mention
Thank you to Extra Curricular Magazine for the write up on their blog regarding our current 40 winks show! You can see the other prints from my series here... 2 more days to go before the exhibition finishes!
Polar Hunting
Here is one of my giclee prints in the current 40 winks show. I was inspired by the recent Frozen Planet TV series and an Inuit Folk tale called 'The Hunter & the Polar Bear'. The story is about a very poor Hunter who makes a deal with a mythical Polar Bear - if he heals his friend then he will be come a good hunter. I decided to incorporate the mythical 10 legged polar bear - who traditionally would terrorize humanity but in this case I made him friendly. I find the North and South poles very inspiring lately... lots of polar bears and penguins appearing in my sketch books.
