New House Painting for Birthday

Commissioned by Fran for her husband's birthday...

New House Painting

This pic took longer than most as the family had scaffolding outside and skips and it was difficult to see the house until all that was cleared away.

Fritz Wegner

I've put these pictures up because Fritz Wegner has always been one of my very favourite illustrators and I bumped into him again a couple of weeks ago. I first met him when I was sitting on my cards-and-house-paintings stall at Highgate Fair last year and he came up and was looking at my work so I asked if he was in 'Art' himself and he said he was an illustrator, so I gently said 'Can I ask your name?' and I nearly fell of my chair when he smiled and said Fritz Wegner. I love his brilliant drawing, line, colour and sense of humour...

More British Council pics

Have just finished big job for the British Council of over 30 illustrations for their new online course on cultural  cifferences between partnership schools. The course will be accessible to schools in the UK and countries in South America, the Caribbean, Africa, India and other countries in the Far East.

Icons of Osteopath Clinics

The osteopath, Robin Kiashek, commissioned me to do little 'icons' of his two clinics, for use on his website and stationery etc. These were coloured in Photoshop, instead of the usual watercolour technique.
