Mother of Dragons

Here is my latest illustration for my Etsy shop, and it's my favourite! I am absolutely obsessed with Game of Thrones, so it was only a matter of time before I had to draw my favourite character. In fact, I'm not sure why it's taken me so long? 

But here she is, Daenerys Targaryen, aka the Mother of dragons, with her you dragon on her shoulder. Each print is finished by hand with gold paint detailing on the dress and metalwork, so each one will be truly unique. Get yours from my Etsy store by clicking HERE

Aspinal of London: Store events 2015

Over the last few months I've been doing some exciting events for Aspinal of London, becoming the in house illustrator for the day, creating watercolour fashion illustrations for the customers. I've been all around their London stores, including; Covent Garden Canary Wharf, Marylebone, Selfridges and their Flagship on Brook Street, and also to their store in Bluewater, Kent. I absolutely love doing these events, drawing all day, meeting wonderful new people, surrounded by beautiful Aspinal products.

In this case, the customer choose their favourite Aspinal product and posed while I sketched them, I then added watercolour and it was done within 5-7 mins. So all of the illustrations you see in this post have been done quickly, in store and in front of the customer.

I've had an incredibly positive response from everybody that I draw, as it adds a lovely element to their shopping experience and gives them something extra to take home with them. I have a few more events in the pipeline, which as ever, I'm very excited for. The events are widely shared on social media, so follow myself and Aspinal of London for updates.

#5 Red hot chilli pepper

So I'm back form my trip away and getting stuck into my fashion illustrations again (or at least trying to fit it in amongst other work!). 

This girl is inspired by a photo from the Sartorialist and this amazing Dolce & Gabanna chilli pepper two piece. I want it! If only I had a spare £1000 lying around! I did manage to get a similar outfit on Etsy from Laundry Day Apparel, which fits like a dream and is perfect for summer!

Out and about...

Above are a selection of images from my Instagram account which show some of my recent work that you can find in various magazines.

 I regularly get to create maps for Fabulous magazine, which I love doing, as I get to learn while I illustrate! Researching the different places beforehand to see what they look like and the general vibe that I want to portray is important in order to get the best outcome. 

I also regularly create illustrations for the "How to…" beauty feature in Top Santé, a monthly women's health beauty and wellbeing magazine. Which include a step by step guide to getting the latest beauty looks.

And also, one of my favourites, Sunday Times Stlye magazine's "Can't live without.." feature, for which I illustrate a different beauty product every week.

I have been very busy of late and will be updating EVERYTHING soon with new work, so keep a look out!

You & Your Wedding Magazine

 I'm thrilled to share with you all a commission I worked on a few months ago for You & Your Wedding magazine.

The issue has just came out and I was excited to pick up a copy and take a look.

I always love to see my work in print and in it's final form.

For the article entitled 'The Five Maids You Need" I illustrated five different types of bridesmaids 

and also a second illustration of some accesories.

It was a lovely piece to work on which I thoroughly enjoyed and, am very pleased with the end result.

Life on film

    

       

Hey everyone,
I’ve got something very exciting to share with you all!

I make my on screen debut in my very own video! It is simply a little snippet of my life, how I work and what I love to do.

It was created by the very talented Sam Nicklin and shot in various locations. In my home studio, my home city of Newcastle and also in sunny Austin TX.

Enjoy! xXx
