For Megan and Tessa with greatest love and devotion...

Newly completed illustrations for my book.

Nanny Tales and Papa Stories

These drawing are the first batch of illustrations that I have been working on for my drawing class. When my sister and I were young, our grandmother, Olwen, would tell us stories about all the adventures she had as a child. Before passing away, she wrote them all down for us in a beautiful scarlet coloured notebook. The drawing is an investigation of my personal history. I reread all the beloved stories from my childhood, selected a few favourites and decided to illustrate them. The drawings are not currently in their proper narrative order, as I still have several illustrations to complete and have yet to bind my book. More to come soon.

In The Spirit of Hallowe'en...

I've been spending a lot (probably too much) time thinking of different possible costumes for the upcoming and in my opinion, most spectacular and notorious holiday. It was my intense anticipation and excitement which inspired this masked self-portrait.
