Migrate magazine is a really great illustration and photography magazine based in South Africa. It’s a wealth of talent from both up coming and industry professionals alike and I was pleased to contribute to their next issue themed around ’sign of our times’.

I’m excited to announce that my range of illustrated jewellery will soon be stocked by Lik + Neon! Situated just on the corner of Brick Lane and Sclater st, London. It’s a great shop with loads of designer goodies and it’s also home to 3 cats! Stop by when you’re next in the East. My jewellery range will be on sale from late October. : )

Just for fun, although one day I would like to design some out of this world boots like these…! Note: the horrible brown colour is actually a sexy gold colour!

At the moment I’m working on some new designs for my accessory collection, including a ‘Dark was the Night’ silhouette collection. I did a stall at the Hackney Wick flea market to test them out, but will be approaching shops soon. You can buy some of my original collection from the ICA, London.

Earlier this month me and some pals curated a show at the Top and Tail Gallery, as part of the Hackney Wicked arts festival. Please see the Top and Tail blog.
Here some pics of my piece, where I applied my colorful repeat printing technique to a 3d format. The piece explores how alcohol may of affected a lovers’ relationship in Victorian London.

Here is the illustration I did for this weeks New Scientist Magazine. I think it’s a great publication, and I really enjoyed working for them.

Last week I went along to The Print House in North London to help fellow illustrator Christina Guitian with her mural. : )


I’ve just finished a fab commission for New Scientist Magazine, set to hit the shelves next week! The article was all about galaxy formations, and not only is it a thoroughly interesting read, but it will have some pretty illustrations to go with it too! For now here is a sneak peek at one of the galaxies I drew to make up the illustration.

Last Friday ‘Jotta’ (online portfoio site and magazine) hosted a really great night all themed around the wonderful world of illustration. They had a pop up fish and chip shop, secret wars drawing battle and live animations. Here is a pic of one of my illustrations animated with the wonderful work of LOGAN.

We even got the chance to make screen printed tote bags while we were there!
(mine’s the black one).
