A couple of new thangs...

So, the big news I am now an illustration tutor at my old college Cambridge School of Art and had my first day this Tuesday. Everyone there was great and very inspiring and I'm looking forward to my next week already! I've been working on a few exciting new projects recently which I will be ready to reveal soon but in the mean time heres a couple of new personal illos that I've done to keep my brain in gear....

First up 'I'll have what she's having.'

'The coin operated footballer'

New Commission!

I was contacted by the Globe and Mail in Canada a week ago to do an illo for their wonderful Facts & Arguments section. As always great fun to do...this one was about a woman looking back on a teenage crush she had on Conan O'Brien (for Brits, an American TV host!)

Jimi Hendrix

Jimi Hendrix died 42 years ago today...R.I.P to the original guitar god. Heres a portrait I did of him a while ago.

Hey! Blog Time.

Managed to get to the Men's Wheelchair Basketball at the Paralympics at the O2 this Tuesday. There was a fantastic atmosphere in and around the venue, well worth going along. Special praise should also go to the volunteers throughout London who were without fail, enthusiastic and charming. They did London proud.

Also went up to Stratford's new Westfield shopping centre in an attempt to get into the Olympic Park. Didn't manage that in the end but I chatted to some of the Spanish Paralympic team in a coffee shop and saw this epic model of the London Olympic stadium in John Lewis.

Great day!
