Wildlife & Robots

Here's some moderately recent illustrations of wildlife that's adorned envelopes and cards for friends.






Always an ongoing theme; whether destroying, loving, on their own, enslaving humanity or tenderly embracing a dinosaur, robots are the greatest! They're everything the future should be hopeful for, and fear.

Drawing Theme?

I came across this while checking out http://drawn.ca/

http://www.terribleyelloweyes.com/

There's a tonne of great illustrations here, and I thought we might as well get on that 'Where The Wild Things Are' bandwagon. At least it's an idea for new random sketching that I think I would actually do. We should just meet up soon for tea with a couple copies of the book and sketch.

Things loving things!

I can't believe it took me 3 months to post on here... sorry, I'm sure I'll be more consistent what with the random art I've been making while putting the final touches on my book paintings.
Anyway, here's my second Dinosaurs Fucking Robots submission. I'm really pleased with myself over this one. Hopefully it'll go up on the official site soon, if not I'll just have to create my own forum for this ongoing series.



Here's the first one I painted. It's a bit more wholesome.



Coming soon: T-Rex & Pachylcephalosaurus!


Procrastination!!!

Look at me, actually posting something on here. Sorry for the delay, but I tried to do some sketches that were related to the blog title and failed miserably. But enough of that, I'm just going to post up some of my most recent work that I'm proud of.
The first being a stencil I did of local live pa artist Longwalkshortdock


I'm really happy with how it turned out, before I started cutting I imagined it would be more complicated than it turned out to be, the only sticky area was the NES controller.

Hmm... I'm having trouble uploading another image... blast, I'll make another post.

But here's a super useful site I found recently!
