I LOVE HASTINGS CONTINUED

And so it begins. My first batch of Hastings illustrations. I hope you like them!

I LOVE HASTINGS!

Been busy recently drawing 'iconic' Hastings buildings. I am using the term iconic very loosely! They are images that I believe scream Hastings. So..... soon I will be uploading stacks of illustrations showing sea breeze battered fish huts; back street alley pubs; lopsided houses.... You get the idea!

I'm hoping to use the final images in an exciting summer project. Watch this space!

FFFFFound!!!!

Ironically I haven't found an invitation for ffffffound. This is rather upsetting to say the least; I spend more time on ffffound than on my actual work ( boring 9-5 work not art work). It's not my birthday or anything but an invite would be fffffantastic.

I think I'm falling in love with Gemma Correll. Her work is pretty awesome and I'm seriously considering copying her...

Wish you were here...

For this piece I've drawn a modern day couple doing the typical tourist thing onto one of the old envelopes I found. Items such as this old envelope interest me because of their history and the possible stories that go with them. I like making up narratives in my head.

However I am thinking more and more that these theories I come up with aren't necessary. Is illustration enough? Am I making this harder than it really is... probably.
