The Hollows

I've just completed a nine page story 'The Hollows' which will be appearing in the next issue of 'Charlatan Tales'.

It's written by mate Mark Kavanagh, actor, writer, raconteur.

Here's the first three pages...

The basis of it came about after a drunken discussion to do a story built around the old school ghost story set up of a seance. A lot of fun to work on. Here's the layers of the onion showing pencils and layouts of the first page...

New Empress Magazine - Freaks

Have recently completed this full page illustration for New Empress magazine to accompany an article on Tod Browning's 1932 film 'Freaks'.

I wanted to use colours that were seemingly randomly selected and bordering on garish to replicate the garish cheap pulpy thrills of the subject matter and the day, hopefully I wasn't too successful in this and it seems like they actually were selected without any thought.

A3 illustrative prints of this are available from my Etsy shop.

Super Beatles

I've had this concept banging around my head for sometime but really got worked up to do it when I saw Tom Whalen's beautiful 'Yellow Submarine' prints recently.

The original ink work and A3 prints can be bought over at my Etsy store.





All together now!
