FUTURE OF COMPUTING


I had this double page spread published in last months Mac User magazine for a feature article on the 'future of computing' I only just managed to get my hands on it! The drawing illustrates the App Store phenomenon and all the multitudes of developers who are trying to get their apps published.



My early sketches for this piece illustrated a ten commandment style ipad and a crowd of lemming like developers surging at a mountain peak. Unfortunately its quite an obvious idea as a load of people knocked up similar things around the ipad's announcement. Shame as mine would have been badass!

MR UNIVERSE


Another piece for the Go Red charity auction. This time I did some legs, I was quite torn with which subject matter to choose but ended up doing some giant Mr. Universe pins. It was drawn in red pencil and then watercoloured, the shaded areas were supposed to be a slightly darker colour to the main skin red but I over cooked it a bit. The result is quite interesting and it has a bit of a Mignola Hellboy look to it! I work some pastel in for the highlights.

20 MINUTE RECHARGE


I have an illustration in this months copy of Men's Fitness.


The article is about coping some zzzs at work. This brief was very quick turnaround but I think it ticks all the boxes. I went for a Matrix style green tinge to the colouring, stopping short of adding a "hello neo.. the Matrix has you." on the screen.

GO RED BLOOD


This is for a charity auction called 'Go Red'. It will be held at the coningsby gallery on wednesday 31st of March. The idea is to do a remote collaborative 'consequences' drawing, like the ones where you draw a head, fold it down and pass it along to someone to draw the body etc. I got body as part of a group project with the new illustration collective PUCK. The rules were that it had to be predominantly in red. I went with the blood gang sign plus prison tattoos. Didn't want you to think I was going soft doing this charity stuff!
