Pretty little map bird

This is one of the little birds that will be on sale at Potterton Books. This little fellow was made a few months ago, and it has some friends in development that come from other parts of London.

A Little Book of Alliterations


I've been working away on a series of little illustrations for a (possibly maybe hopefully!) book with 'Inside Pocket' independent publishers. This is a sneaky peek at one of them. 10 of the illustrations are going to be on sale for a little while as limited edition prints along with some pretty little map birds at the really very lovely Potterton Books in Chelsea from sometime around 17th November.

Visual Minutes for the NHS and the Eden Project




These are Visual Minutes from a conference I worked at with Creative Connection, for the NHS (bit of a mouthful) sickle cell anaemia and thalassaemia screening programme. They were looking at improving the process of diagnosis for patients, and I was one of three artists along with my friend Claire, and the very talented Chris 'visual minuting' - we work as a team to create one piece. This whole piece was about 10m long! It was a fascinating day, some really dedicated people. I learnt lots, both about sickle cell, and brushing up my visual minuting skills. The 'baby bit' is mostly where I was working!

About a week before this I went down to Cornwall to the Eden project to do visual minutes for the Eden Forum, which was looking at tackling climate change in the South West. There were some mind bogglingly big brains discussing some pretty terrifying issues, I felt like a very little fly on the wall. But a very lucky little fly.

The Eden project is really rather wonderful thing.

Catch Up..




This is the stall at the Thames Festival that I had some work on as part of the 'Playroom' collective - a group of graduates and students from Camberwell College Illustration MA. And above, skateboarding pandas. A possible image for a book project in progress with some of the Playroomers.
