Well yesterday i handed my last picture book files in to the printers so hopefully by the end of the week i will have the paper printed so i can make some lovely hardback versions of the lonely gardener and the greedy fisherman AND i will have some paperback versions of Helga, and the gardener and the fisherman!! fingers crossed the lovely printers will get be able to understand my silly description of what i want and i HOPE HOPE HOPE i dd all the files correctly as it was a bit of a rush to hand it in!

but the end of uni is in sight…. and i cant wait to draw in the real world!!!

the patient fisherman

In childrens book, comic, cute stuff, digital image, graphic novel, me, my work, Uncategorized on May 4, 2010 at 4:42 pm

this is from the story i am working on crazily to try to finish before my assesment at uni- it was inspired by this on vbs about a big trash island floating far far from civilisation. its really horrible cos it’s like an impossible thing to clean up and sort out, that is why this fisherman is patient cos he sets about trying to sort the mess out! bless him! good luck fisherman cos we have messed up the sea! more can be seen on my flikr account.

over and out!

experiments

i sort of have a crush on the old pink panther cartoons- i guess that what this experiment is based on….  i think its too crazy though so i am going to re draw it- it is for a new story which i am crazily going to do before my hand in date at uni- so like in three weeks! i might be over estimating what i can get done. any way stay tuned to see if this insane deadline will cripple my already fragile anxious mental state.

this is kinda how i feel

well i had a bit of bad news this week end…. luckily i have some nice people who make me feel better. so my drawing has been a bit neglected but i finally finished this image of the gardener. its not a good diagnosis for the gardener!

i wonder if all the blood is too much for kids? hmmm… i wonder

yaaawn

i have been drawing and photoshoping till the wee hours lately ( i have doing the old cliche of forgetting there is no “cmd z” in real life when you draw something wrong in your sketchbook… or knock your coffee over! ). i am happy to do it and my little fable is cooking up a treat,  but i am pretty sleepy now! here are some more recent images .

good night

a persian Fable

In comic, graphic novel, my work on March 26, 2010 at 9:42 am

so i have finally finished my picture book- well its all printed and hard back bound but alas it is still naked of a front cover, but very soon it will be complete! i will photograph it once it is all complete. So in the mean time i am working on a comic/ zine based on an amazing persian fable. here are some images from it so far.
