Legal Business 100

Above are the recent editorial illustrations I did for Legal Business magazine called 'Legal Business 100'. The funfair brief was to contain certain elements to related to the performance of legal companies over the past year. I'm not even going to pretend I know who these people are on the rides I just had to make sure each person was in the correct place and every ride didn't encroach on the text, gutter and bleed. It was a challenge especially when I started work on the DPS in a small lake district village without any WiFi available.

Got there in the end though... hope you like it.

Work In Progress

I've been struggling with this oil painting in-between other work but will keep plodding away.

Ezmerelda drives again...

I wanted to try out mounting paper on board for oil painting and so used that as an excuse to paint this for Suzanne. The vehicle in question is her old camper van 'Ezmerelda' (that's how Suzanne likes to spell it) which now resides in a field next to her engine which is on a wooden palette. Despite this Ezmerelda will always be seen as Suzanne's ticket to the open road, even if it did spend most of the time parked on the kerb steaming.

Something for my friends... I had a lot of fun playing with inks on this one.
