MORE IDEAS

SOME IDEAS......
Here are some ideas that I have that I may develop... chissa'!!!

LIVING IN SPAIN
Here are two of the illustrations I did for a book about living in Spain.... I particularly like the way I have depicted the Spanish estate agent...... very realistic, not at all stereotypical!!!!!!!

THE PRINCESS AND THE PEA
This is an illustration I did for a competition to illustrate one of the stories of Hans Christian Anderson. I chose the princess and the pea. I wanted the perspective to be a bit squiffy to give a sense of the height of the mattress and the precariousness of them. I quite like the 'Japanese' vibe that I gave the Princess!!!!

Glencullen....

I took some photos whilst walking my dog near my house today. Being the cheerful person I am I found myself in the local derelict church and cemetry! I was completely alone but it was a lovely autumn day and very peaceful, a good place to clear your head. I also took some fotos of my neighbours, the sheep. The song is one of my favorites at the moment and I thought it suited the tone of the photos. It is called La Collina dei ciliegi by Lucio Battista.

TIME TO GET SERIOUS!




I have decided enough messing around.... it's time to get serious so I am clearing up my spare/junk room and making it into a super sleek studio where I can organize myself in an atmosphere conducive to creativity!!!!! I have consulted Feng shui specialists and know where to put all my chakras (actually I haven't and wot's a chakra? can you buy one in Lidl on offer???) Anyway my mission for this coming week is to completely organize everything and get rid of all my junk!!!!! I have decided to paint one of the walls but can't decide on blue, pink or green....I'll get back to that one!!

MY NEW BLOG!!
I might have said before..... but at the risk of repeating myself, I am going to Sardinia in August and I have decided to create a different blog which I will update when I am there. I can record how well (!!!!) I am learning Italian, post boring holiday photos (and stop boring you on here!!!) and hopeully if I get bored/lonely, it will give me something to do! The title is Month of Sundays

First page of the storyboard I am doing.

This is the initial storyboard I am doing for an animation title sequence for a television pilot (more of a presentation board?) I hope to scan them, these were just taken with my camera

The front cover of a book I illustrated about relocating to Spain and buying a property.... I have to dig out the other illustrations I have for it... I'm sure they are in here somewhere!!!!!!

I have done these posts below some time ago but forgot to put them on my blog!!!!
