Here's a lil throwback to one of my favourite illustrations from last year. I love creating colourful illustrations like this, it's been a while since I've had fun with my Inktense pencils. . I'll be planning next year's projects/ workload at the start of January. . What creations would you most like to see? I'll mostly be focusing on fine tuning my coffee and ink work, but knowing what everyone has loved most through 2020 (& previous) will really help my planning. . . Ps Prints of Mr Piggles are currently available in my Etsy shop (next post date 8th Jan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJHB2I8pHz5/?igshid=5tw1bgfxpkw7

Artist: Humanoid Creature. Reclusive. Main Strength: Creativity Weakness: Social Skills -will work for food . I've been working on something a lil different today. Some cute gift vouchers for local business @thechaistreet . It was fun doing something so different from usual. And I'm quite proud of them. Especially the little raffia ties on each gift card. One of my better ideas. . If you are local to the Burton/ Derby area and haven't tried a Chai Street yet, what are you playing at? . My personal fave is the Tofu Tikka Masala, it's nice finding somewhere local that makes great Indian Street Food, and feeling safe about the Vegan choices available. https://www.instagram.com/p/CI5wZ0upyZn/?igshid=f6zpj1yzhsb5

My Frankendog Illustration is hands down my favourite piece I've created in 2020. . His backstory is more intense than with my usual pieces. I delved into the inspirations behind Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, the real life mad scientists and alchemists. It made for Gory and upsetting research, which inspired me to raise money and awareness for @animalfreeresearchuk . 15% profits from this design will be donated to Animal Free Research to help them keep up the good work. . The design is available on recycled stickers, paper magnets, greetings cards, and prints sized A5-A3. I also have the materials to print onto 100% cotton tote bags upon request. Each order comes with a handwritten sheet explaining the hidden symbolism and interesting factoids from my research. . You can grab 25% off my Frankendog on Etsy at the moment, with free UK delivery till Friday . . . https://www.instagram.com/p/CI3lb8upk-M/?igshid=6myustrdutso

Did you know that any of my designs can be printed up onto personalised present labels? . Here's a few I made up this morning ready to deliver this afternoon. .
