New Year

Phew christmas over then and back to work :-)

i have emerged from a mince-pie and sherry induced coma and have tons of work to get on with .

And i really think that the websight could do with a little new year revamp

have so much drawing to do it may be a bit slow!

but thought i would post up a few doodles using my new and lovely pen.

and I hope to get the gallery images changed soon .

Brillustration and the Big Draw

As part of an illustrators group called Brillustration I thought I would post up the window display by the lovely people at Blackwell’s bookshop on park street Bristol.

we will be taking over their window next saturday 8th of october for the big draw event.

Brillustration will be drawing live in their window, encouraging people to draw making badges and generally encouraging people to join in the fun.

so if your about do come by and visit .

As they have a three for two offer on all Brillustration books (including mine , he , he. ) come and stock up,. you can always save them for the impending winter festival that I won’t yet mention!

we will even sign them for you !

 

 

Apologies for the rubbish photography it was a very sunny day.
