His debut single, Londonderry, is out December 14th – that’s today! Woo & yay!

Really enjoying this project!

I have a new Threadless design up at the moment – if you could take a minute to vote for it I’d be happy as happy can be.

Thanks!

The seal of approval

Oh poor blog, how I neglect you. To be honest, I always forget that you exist for a few weeks until somebody leaves a nice comment on an old entry. Must write in here more!

Here are some things which make me DELIGHTED. Firstly, Jack Hudson‘s illustrations are bloody ruddy amazing and I can’t quite get over how much I love them.

‘White Noise in the Deep Sea’
Illustration that was influenced by The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time novel by Mark Haddon.

& my favourite from his Flickr, which is “A childrens Story involving a girl who finds magical fruits that help her to save a small village in Austria”:

Next up, these delicious bits by the equally talented Owen Gatley:

“‘Hansel and Gretel’, An abstract telling of the classic fairytale that was made into a concertina book.

His Flickr is also full of many delights, including pages from a really special pop-up book he’s made. Have a gander!

As for me, I’m currently working on a brand spanking new website for the wonderful Gideon Conn, an amazingly entertaining, funny and talented Manchester musician. I’m really pleased with it so far – expect some images soon!

Other than that, I’ve been putting my cat into a paper bag.

She’s also running a competition at the moment & giving away some pirate/ninja/zombie/cowboy face necklaces. Just comment on the blog entry saying what your favourite jewellery item in her shop is for a chance to win.

Lovely jubbly!

Here’s an illustration I did for a friend’s wedding invitations. They’re having a “top half posh” wedding – i.e. a lovely wedding dress over some muddy jeans and wellies! The invite will fold out from the middle.

Some logos I’ve been working on for Three Quarters Productions, a production company based in Manchester:

And some more logos designed for RG Photographic, who take some most splendid photos. Have a look!

Just a little reminder that my t-shirt designs are up for voting on Swish Swosh – if you could take the time to sign up (it only takes 30 seconds!) and vote for them, I’d be really grateful

They’re HERE and HERE

Thank-yow!

Two of my designs are up for voting on the new Threadless-esque t-shirt site Swish Swosh and I was just wondering if you could be ever so kind and help me out by voting? I’d be jolly grateful yes I would.

One is here: Dam it!

And another is here: Umbrella hat

5 is the highest score and 1 is lowest – a few people have been confused because it doesn’t say! Thanks very much

And a commission for somebody’s girlfriend’s birthday. OM NOM NOM!
