What better time to open a shop than a post recession post Christmas boom.

10 year old pirates.
2010 was a massively eventful year, mainly good, sometimes crappy. Loads of things got done and I will try to collect some of it's activities to post, however that is proving a slow and complicated task and may get left behind in favour of ploughing into the work for 2011 with a run up.
So, here is blog post 700. In line with the point of this blog so far, not so much to produce splendid and precious work but to keep me drawing and keep my drawing and thinking lively if not always any good.
These guys are pirates I drew in a sketchbook at the very beginning of 2001.

Winter Solstice
It's the Winter Solstice tonight. So it's the shortest day of the year, which I have to admit I always find slightly sad. I find comfort being sandwiched between to long dark nights. I like winter.
This pic was for the Eastwing agency brochure, I had December.

2006 A year on the phone
I've just got back from a work/holiday to Florida that I did previously in 2006, while reminding myself of the photos I took there I also remembered this project. With a fairly tiny pictures available on my camera phone I decided to take one everyday of 'something' for each day of the year. Mainly a compositional exercise really but I always wanted to get this full year up in a giant frame on the wall. 12 months later, 365 days on 12 A4 pages.
Not thought about posting it before.

Blank Slate 2011
Blank Slate Books have posted their schedule for next year here. Of course, I am extremely excited that Gungle is part of that schedule (slated for August) but even more so looking at what else they have on the way. There books are amazing and easily worth a buy. I feel very lucky to be a part of that gang.
Now, to finish my book.

Out of Office
I am far from home at present (Working in one if my day job capacities) hence the long gap. I am also far from a scanner and the like but do still have a pencil and sketchbook, here's a couple of spreads that I've found time for.
