The Giants Causeway

some say the divil is dead

And buried in Kilarney

An Owl wan

I have nothing new from this week to show here so I thought I'd post something from a few months back.
At the start of the year BrenB of the Small Print asked a few people to contribute to a very cool Alphabet project, and I believe it is still in the works to be printed up soon so watch out for that.
Here's my one anyway.... Can you guess my letter?

Style suggestion

Here's a rejected style suggestion for an illustration gig
I'm working on at the moment. We all agreed it was
a bit too cutesy . I enjoyed referencing the Romani decorations.
I'll try and find a way to use them
in the final less cartoony version.

Concept art

spent the first half of today doing the boring type of painting
(Walls with a roller)
but made up for it by painting the fun way this evening.

Miyazaki tribute

bit strange making miyazaki San the forest god but
I thought it was a funny image at least :)
this is a bit bigger than a3 watercolour and pencil - my
attempt at mimicing the masters watercolour storyboard style.

Art for Japan

As well as the Miyazaki tribute and this Kiki piece I'm including these two earlier pieces in case someone is interested in them .

Sunday painter

Happy birthday micks.

No computer here at home so just loading
this from my phone. It's a wee watercolour
I'm doing for a commision. Thanks again for having
me along On your blog I'm still the new kid on
the block here so just wanted to congratulate
all you longtime posters on yer tenecity and talent
:)

When I grow up I want to be Genndy

Hello Micks!

Thanks for inviting me to join your blog, its an honour indeed.

I decided to pay tribute to some of our influences on The Secret of Kells , I hope I have time to do something to acknowledge the Hungarian folktales,The Thief and the Cobbler and Samarai Jack as well.....
