I'm in the process of re-doing my website. Will let you know when it's finished, it's taking a while as I'm also in the process of moving house. This Monday I will be making time to see the mmu degree show , which is something I always look forward to. I'm especially looking forward to seeing Lora Avedian work whose blog I follow. She does wonderful illustrations and beautiful fashion garments.

Getting ready for the exhibition.

As you can see I solved the USB problem by buying a new one...clever me! Any hoo here are some pictures of the exhibition.

Exhibition

My work is in the Urbis Creatives exhibition at Urbis in Manchester city centre and will be up for a few more days. If you are in the area please go and have a look. There are lots of different pieces of work by different artists including fine art painting, photography, graphic design and illustration of course!

I have some photographs to add but at the moment I am without a USB cable for my camera, which is very frustrating. Will need to look into resolving this problem.

forest fire

Urbis Creatives launch night will happen on the 27th May at Urbis Manchester. I will be busy creating a new piece for the night. Exciting times.

I have done a piece for Atypica magazine, which will be out later this month. They have promised to send me a copy and I can't wait to see it! Will post a picture when it arrives.

I have been introduced to a great graphic designer called Olle Eksell by a fellow illustrator Liam Palmer . Liam has lent me a book of Eksell's work and I've had it for maybe a bit longer then I should. Oops.

sixties

I did this illustration for a flyer advertising a Sixties Magical Music Tour around Manchester.

'Take a tour of some of the key sites from Manchester's musical heyday. Discover where all star acts such as The Hollies, The Small Faces, Ike and Tina Turner, Chuck Berry, Jimi Hendrix and The Bay City Rollers plus many more played on the circuit. Visit the spots where Manchester's Northern Soul crowd used to hang out, and the celebrated haunts like the Oasis club where entry cost 25p, and find out how the Twisted Wheel kept its music Manchester's best loved secret. A must, whether you want to reminisce about the good old days or find out the roots of musical Manchester.'

I did an illustration for Mankind magazine, entitled 2am.
You can buy the magazine here , its great! Much love to Erin, who created it.
