Introduction

I'm a freelance illustrator with a fierce (and frankly, dangerous) imagination. This blog is where I quarantine my creations long enough to deem them safe to move on to my website.

If you think I can help with your project, want to offer words of encouragement or simply say hi, feel free to get in touch.

If you want to be updated on my undertakings, then subscribe to this blog using the little box belowand you'll be informed every time I trap something and haul it (screaming and from time to time, kicking) into reality.

Destiny

Happy noo yeah!

I figured I should start back after a holiday break with something fresh and exciting! Star Wars! Bah, OK, so not fresh. Comfortable? Definitely.

Regardless, this image is the first in a series of pictures depicting key characters from the series as 'younglings', engaging in acts that reference key moments from their future. Despite being completed before Disney took over the Galaxy, the style isn't out of place with their mantra, representing the childish outlook of the subject whilst drawing on and exaggerating the colour palette of the films worlds.


I also liked the idea of Luke playing with his toy Star fighter just like many of us did in our youth.

The 'wide-screen' format gave the image a more cinematic quality whilst making the colours seem more vibrant and the text added to generate a more positive, motivational and life affirming blah blah blah blah blah...
