A Notion Deep Inside..


Last year, it was a Gram Parsons piece for my brother's 40th,this year it's my sisters turn and she gets this Bruce Springsteen piece as she's a massive, massive fan (not long back from seeing a home town concert in New Jersey).



It's A3 dimensions and created using pencil, watercolour, ink and charcoal.

I probably lose Brucie Bonus Points as the image is from the 'Born to Run' photoshoot and lyrics are from 'Badlands' to be found on 'Darkness on the Edge of Town'.

Tablet

A two-pager I've just completed...



For this I wanted to channel (rip-off) the boldness and abstraction in the E.C. work of Harvey Kurtzman. If you're going to steal, steal from the best etc.etc.

I also wanted it to be inkwork and inkwork alone, no post-scan texures, Photoshop shading etc. applied.

True Love is Like the Loch Ness Monster



This is a book cover illustration I created for Helen Cox, editor of New Empress film magazine, of which I create regular illustrated content for. It's a collection of film essays and criticism.

The cover concept was from a frankly bizarre (but fun) brief from Helen.


I also created the type treatment.


It can be bought through here.
