I've just received some printed copies of the final Castle Howard Children's Riddle Trail Map, and I think it looks great and has reproduced very well. It's nice to think of children receiving a copy of the map when they visit, and I hope they are enjoying the trail.

I really liked my 'Children and Nature' series of drawings, but felt that my drawing skill had improved since I did them. I've recently redrawn and recoloured them, and I think you'll agree they look a world apart from the originals, and better by far.

BEFORE


The illustrations show children interacting with and enjoying nature and outdoor play.

Revisiting Old Artwork II: My colours have got brighter!

Whilst doing some work on my website I realised that over time, the colours I use have hot brighter and my style has developed. I have gone back and revisited some of my old favourites, and recoloured them. I now think they look a lot better - bolder and more striking.

Revisiting Old Artwork, Queen Elizabeth I and Sir Francis Drake

I'm gradually updating and sprucing up my website (you may have noticed some new banners over the last couple of days), and this has lead me to revisit some past artwork.

I feel my use of colour has really developed recently, and so have been able to give a few pieces of artwork a new lease of life.

This image of Queen Elizabeth I knighting Francis Drake was drawn originally for the Hall Place Tudor Timeline, but I have re-done the colour and it now looks better and brighter.
