This caught my eye...

As i was heading home to draw crocs i saw these biscuits in M&S and the illustrations made me buy them. Such a sucker for packaging.

Snap!

I'm drawing a series of animals for a friends daughter, first up on the list is a crocodile. I've just roughly coloured him but I'll clean him up in illustrator when i colour him properly. I can imagine his little hands flapping at the sight of a string of sausages already.

A load of old Birthdays

If you turned another year older this week like a couple of friends and myself, Happy Birthday to you! Due to several celebrations and the weather being so lovely for a change, I spent some time away from my desk and had a good old much needed stretch. I've been trying to keep my camera with me (something i'm hopeless at) so if i see any inspirational things on my outings i can snap them. I've only spotted drunken people and birthday cake over the last week though.

A late night with Mr Humbugs

I've always been a night owl ever since christmas 1985 when my parents bought me a ZX Spectrum along with my very own colour TV to play it on in my room. 25 years later and i still haven't kicked the late night habit. But it's in the early hours that i produce most of the nonsense i do. From today's early morning scribblings this little man was created. Say Hello to Mr Humbugs...

Invitation illustration for the nation (well, not quite).

This week, i was honoured to create a little illustration for my friends marriage blessing party in summer. With the layout and type by the groom himself, i'm so pleased with how it's turned out and more importantly, that the bride and groom like it! Quite a new way of working for me as the figures aren't contained within a black line (also a much quicker way to work).

Lyrics and Type Exhibition

Lots of work to do this week, but i'm looking forward to getting out to see the Lyrics and Type Exhibition which has it's opening night on Thursday April the 8th at the East Gallery, Brick Lane, London. Some of my favourite scribblers are exhibiting including Stephane Tartelin. This coupled with a coffee and a bun (♥!!) will make my week!

The Electric Sausage plays out on my desk...
