'Extravagant Wig Wearers'
Found this week's theme a bit tricky, because I am still trying to produce more historical work and couldn't immediately think of any ways of linking the two. I decided to draw some characters from the 1700s, and what links them together is their penchant for ridiculous curly wigs! Tenuous link, but I enjoyed drawing them!

My entry for Index Book's bizarre competition to make bathroom signs more fun! These are for a castle or museum, and feature Henry VIII and Queen Victoria.

This week's Illustration Friday topic is 'island' - I am currently working on expanding my historical illustration portfolio - so chose to use this as an opportunity to illustrate this famous Winston Churchill quote.
I found trying to get a likeness quite challenging, but I am pleased with the end result and hope it bears some resemblance of the great man himself.

This is a poster I drew for the Advice to Sink in Slowly project, which passes on advice to new university students in the form of A3 posters. This was a challenging prokect due to the sheer complexity of the image! Colours look a bit garish on screen.
Advice to Sink in Slowly Poster Shop - You can take a look at some of the other posters here - it's fascinating to see everyone's individual responses to the brief. Hasn't been updated with this years posters yet though.

Theme is 'Routine'. I decided to think out of the box slightly for this one, I thought of the idea of someone having a break from their normal routine, and had the idea of people with strange and exciting jobs doing something very normal and mundane as a break from their normal adventures. My image is entitled 'The Lion Tamer's Day off', and shows just that.
