I’m still here and still an illustrator. Some updates:
Firstly a kind-of-finished image that I posted a preview of a while back. I resolved it (up to a point) around that time too but didn’t post it as I was intending to add a bit more to it. However too much time has passed now for me to go back to it, so here it is:
It’s part of my ongoing campaign to populate my portfolio with images involving people and popular themes (music, science, sport, food etc). In this case I think the people look a little too statuesque and lifeless (probably due to lack of facial features…).
In a similar vein I jumped at the chance to do some people-based illustrations (see below) for Amelia which you can see in context here.
I was prepared for the images to look a little weird - I have to experiment because I really don’t have a set way of illustrating people in my current style. I’m taking notes and looking and what works and what doesn’t, and have a few different ideas I still want to try out, but either way I’m quite pleased with the people in these images.
Aside from that I’ve been spending most of my time divided between:
a) a fairly large web design project that may be rearing its head sometime soon, in which case I will duly publicise and
b) my band Hoshal Patrick - recording videos, new demos, sprucing up our MySpace, Last.fm and soon our website as well - which I have been publicising quite heavily on certain channels already.
That’s all for now - as always, new projects in the pipeline and new images on the way…
