A change of scenery and painted this fox. 

Anglepoise project

Living Lamp was a professional brief set by British lighting maker Anglepoise® for final year BA Illustration students at the University of Portsmouth. Over 40 students were tasked with bringing an Anglepoise® lamp to life by exploring the narratives around their anthropomorphic qualities through a single concertina sketch book. Each concept was kept under wraps until the end of the campaign, when all the sketchbooks were presented simultaneously. 9 winners were selected by Anglepoise® Brand 

I was chosen as 1 of the 9 winners! Have to say I really enjoyed working on this brief for Anglepoise. The book was actually completed in December/ January time, but with everything being hush hush could only be posted now. 

Lino print

Getting on with some lino print. Experimenting with repeat patterns.

Keyrings

Loving the laser cutter at the moment. This time making some keyrings for self promotion.

Hillers gardens

Winter, probably not the best time of year to go photograph flowers. Yet here are a few of some shots I managed to capture whilst at Hillers gardens this winter.
