Woahh look who hasn’t posted anything since October, eh? Took advantage of the sun and my new coloured paper pack to snap some pics of ‘Ladion of Sloed’ 💛

The lovely asked if I’d be interested in designing a 48 page zine showcasing his project; AI-generated images made through a series of conversations, with some wonderfully weird outcomes.

Images generated and halftoned by Gareth, zine designed by me, and printed on 55gsm newsprint by the brilliant . You can purchase a copy from Gareth’s shop if ya fancy! 🤗

Some of my fave outcomes from .geraldine ‘s August sketchbook prompts ✏️💗

Day 15: freestyle
Day 13: fave movie character (who doesn’t love Verne)
Day 30: urban inspo
Day 6: (my tiny) hand

It was so lovely to do a small creative task each day, gradually filling my lil hand-bound sketchbook!

I realised I haven’t posted in a veryyy long time, so here’s some pencil sketched spreads from my children’s book produced for my MA Major Project 💫

All of the spreads were drawn and painted by hand, using a mix of watercolour, gouache and coloured pencils 🎨

Piece of work from a couple of months ago - a drypoint etching depicting ‘Downton Abbey’ 🤎

I never used to be interested in printmaking, but during my MA I’ve had the chance to explore a range of print techniques, and I’ve fallen in love with etching ✨

Also super grateful for ‘s help with the etching process and my technique ☺️💛

Had a lovely time visiting Mansfield Green E-ACT Primary Academy on Wednesday to see the school library wall mural I designed and illustrated 🤩

Also loved meeting the children who helped choose the design (I was definitely the shy one) and receiving handmade cards from them 💕

It’s amazing to see my work on such a large scale, and I’m glad the children love it as much as I enjoyed designing it 🥰

(Thank you & 💕)

A couple of illustrations from a recent brief for a primary school library 📚💛

I wanted to show how various children’s classics ‘come to life’ ✨ The illustrations are hand-drawn in pencil and digitally colourised.

Something a lil different… I’ve been experimenting more with collage lately, adding it to my list of paper-ventures✂️💜

Produced these at uni yesterday as a form of creative procrastination, and I rather like the outcomes✨

Digital illustrations from a micro-project I’ve been working on - exploring wordless narratives for young children 👽🌎

The story is about a spaceman who travels to the moon and meets an alien. The two then go on an adventure through space together 💫

I did not anticipate how difficult it would be to tell a story without using words!

Super excited to finally be able to share that my illustrations were chosen to be featured in the 2021 BCU Anthology book!

The illustrations were hand-drawn in pen in line with the theme ‘room to breathe’ 🌬

Pre-MA task - create a piece of work to represent you. I created a spread from a children’s book about a little fish who knew she was different to her peers, and she’s finally beginning to understand why.

My outcome represents what I’ve discovered about myself, my specialisms and my career aspiration, designing for children.
