Lately I've been working on building up my Editorial Illustration portfolio.
This is an illustration based on the Telegraph article 'Honey pots costing £55 each sell out', which is about Manuka honey grown at the Tregothnan Estate in Cornwall, which sells at £55 a pot because of its apparent health benefits.

Self-promotional Editorial illustration inspired by the Guardian Article 'Street Clutter Threat to Conservation Areas'.
The nicest streets in England are gradually being wrecked – sinking under a tide of plastic windows, concrete roof tiles, replacement doors, satellite dishes, smashed-out front gardens and streetscapes cluttered with ugly broken paving, bollards, barriers and traffic signs. This is the verdict of English Heritage, which has for the first time included England's 9,300 conservation areas in its annual register of historic sites at risk, which is published today.

I was recently commissioned to produce a poster for the Sheffield Lyceum Theatre's Children's Production of 'My Dad's a Birdman', which will be performed in schools.
The story is about a girl and her dad, who wants to be a bird and to enter the Great Human Bird Competition.
The client wanted the illustration to have lots of energy and happiness, and be colourful and attractive to children. The client also had the idea that the father's bird costume should be based on a Mallard, and the little girl's costume should be based on a Swift or Swallow. However, since the costumes are supposed to be home-made, the client wanted me to make sure they didn't look 'bought' or professional.
This illustration will be used on A3 posters, and text will be added.

I've just received some print outs of the finished Museums Sheffield Family Trail Sheets for the Ruskin Gallery and Metalwork Gallery.
I provided the character of John Ruskin for the Ruskin Gallery trail, and the Sheffield Buffer girl for the Metalwork Gallery trail.
