The first sketch up is in preparation for a series of prints that I will be releasing over the next little while with an old sailors / nautical theme. The second image is a final commissioned piece that I have just finished inking with some home-made walnut ink from Wyndham Art Supplies (Guelph).
Stay tuned - finals will be posted soon.

Tuesday, February 5, 2013 at 08:19AM For a while now I have been inspired to collaborate more & more with other artist & to bridge that gap of semi isolation that artists including myself can often experience. In all honesty - I enjoy the isolation to an extent because I find it inspiring to have space & time to myself, but in the same breath I recognise that I am not an island & that my art is not to exist purely as a solo venture.
For this reason a few months back I had proposed a collaborative illustration concept to Timber & he graciously accepted. The results are for sale over at my Etsy site & the feedback has been brilliant. Following this venture, I thought... 'I would love to do this again & again if possible.' I have been in contact with an incredibly talented Melbourne based artist that I have given the same proposal to & she (as with Timber) graciously accepted.
The results & reveal are coming soon-ish, but for now please find a mini sneak peek below.
Take care
Monday, February 4, 2013 at 08:36AM This is my first attempt at an illustrated repeat pattern after being inspired by the incredibly talented Julia Rotham. Im very pleased with the results.
This particular design is inspired by & dedicated to my Mum & her passion for patch-work. A very talented & inspiring women I must say.
Much love
