| October 19th, 2009 - Lisa Kleypas book covers... |
| I will be illustrating a series of four period romance books by best selling author Lisa Kleypas. Each of the books represents a season which will be the focus of my illustrations along with the main character which will be in a silhouetted style so as not to give away too much about her! I will post the covers on my 'clients' page when they are out. |

| A quick update for the past few weeks... |
I have been SO busy with work that I haven't even had time to update my news page for a couple of months! So here's what I have been up to...
During the summer I was working on a book, 'Fashion For Dummies' (the yellow Dummies books) for Wiley publishing. I had a brief to create around 200 illustrations - by far the biggest job I have ever had. I was doing about 5 illustrations per day and working 7 days a week!! I am really excited to see the finished full colour book which will be out in November just in time for Christmas. |
|
| |
| Since finishing the Dummies book I have been working on several projects for clients including Oskia Skincare at Liberty and a monthly commission for a new online boutique specialising in fashionable work wear. Businesselle features a stylist section with a different 'working week wardrobe' each month where I have illustrated 5 outfits all available to buy from Businesselle. |

| February 1st , 2009 - High Heels personal shopping service... |
| Any girl's best friend - a personal shopper! I have been asked to create the brand identity for a new personal shopping service in London called High Heels. This is very exciting for me to have the opportunity to create a whole package for this company - a logo, website and fashion illustrations - of course. |

| January, 2009 - Hugo Boss storyboards... |
| Happy New Year! And it was especially for me when I finally got a commission after a bit of a dry spell - I was wondering if all this business with the economy was going to affect me and other illustrators. I am guessing it will just because budgets are inevitably going to be cut. I was happy to receive a call from Grey advertising to produce story boards for a new Hugo Boss perfume advert. This was a great job to do as I had always wanted to do stoeyboarding ever since watching Disney movies when I was young. |

| 11th September, 2008 - It's been a while... |
Yes, I am still alive! I've been very busy moving house (back to Cornwall!) and generally sorting out boring stuff. Recent news to report - I have an illustration coming up in the next Radio Times Magazine, they asked me to create an illustration to accompany an article on London Fashion Week (September 19th, 2008). You can see the illustration on my client list page if you click 'Radio Times'.
I have also recently been doing some work for a really cool packaging company in Brighton called Tagit Ltd who supply many high street stores like Topshop, Marks and Spencer, Oasis and Miss Selfridge. I have been working on some floral themed designs for them. You can see one of the illustrations on my client list page.
An all-girl folk band have commissioned me to illustrate their forthcoming album 'A Different Season'. The girls themselves are featured on the cover along with their instruments in a Japanese inspired style. Their music is really beautiful...
