Oh Really Magazine - Issue 5
With the world racing by in a blur sometimes it’s easy to miss things. Early last year I discovered Oh Really Magazine and I’ve been checking back at regular intervals to keep up with their exploits and to find out when the next issue would be released.
Finally, a day or so ago I got an amazing surprise – Issue 5 has been released… and I have some of my older Illustration artwork featured in the Australian based Oh Really Magazine along with some amazing artists including Kid Zoom, C215, Phibs and Ears (plus many more). I can’t wait to get my hands on my copy.

Here’s my finished entry for the For Boarders By Boarders exhibition at the Reebok Lounge in London in the coming weeks. It’s loosely based on a friend – hence the name.

A painting I started some months ago for a colleague and never got around to finishing off. Just needs another 30 seconds and it’s done!

Here’s the fifty minute pencil drawing I did today on my lunch hour for the Illustration Friday prompt – resolve. When I do artwork for Illustration Friday my first stop is usually to ask Google for it’s definition of the word – today I picked the following explination “decide:bring to an end”.

Sketch for the Illustration Friday prompt ‘Opinion’. I was a little late with this one – didn’t managed to paint it in time…

I’ve been busy looking through some old sketch pads (some over 10 years old now) and have uploaded a couple more of the scans I’ve done to my sketchbook page.

“Fleur is beautiful but lazy and, at forty, spends her life looking for rich men who can provide her and her teenage daughter with a glamorous and effortless existence. A daily trawl through the court pages of The Times provides her with an unusual but fertile search area – the funerals and memorial services of the great and good, where gatecrashers are so much less noticeable than they would be at a wedding or a christening.”
