Stigma Standee

Back in February I won a competition to design the character 'Stigma' for the NHS Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Foundation Trust and their 'Squash Stigma in Mental Health' campaign. They later commissioned me to re-produce Stigma for a 6ft tall standee to be used for scaring small children in local schools.

Here is the standee and the fella posing next to him is Tony Scott of Victoire Press

And more on the campaign can be found here

Think that's all the loose ends from 2011 sewn up...Happy New Year!

Nativity

A few months ago I undertook a commission to create illustrations for an activity card based on the Christmas Nativity. It was a really fun project to work on, kind of like a small picture book as the card has a tri-fold design and accommodates 11 or so spreads as well as stickers. Below is the front cover and a couple of spreads from it (words not included).

The card is due to be published some time during 2012 and will hopefully be available on the high street as well as on the official 'Cardooo' site at www.cardooo.com. Cardooo can also be found on Facebook.

Thank you for visiting my blog and site over the past year.

Happy Holidays!

Pirates!

I felt my portfolio wasn't as swashbuckling as it could be so hopefully this will do the trick. Pirates and humour always seem to go well together; I remember a clip from The Simpsons where a pirate suggests to his captain that perhaps instead of burying the treasure they use it to buy 'things we like.' Naturally, the captain puts a bullet through his head. Magic.

Hello World

Something for the portfolio in the realm of languages - if you can name the nationality (or region) of every character here then you'll win a telegram from the Queen! But you'll have to wait until you're a hundred to get it :(

Happy guessing!

Cretaceous Crater

Having recently watched the superb Planet Dinosaur series on BBC, I felt compelled to draw some dinos of my own...
