Still a way to go but it's getting there...

When I find spare time now I am starting to push myself to get more of my own stuff done, this is a concept sketch I am doing for Marcello's Diabla comic. The character appeals to me for many reasons but I like that I can put my slant of the horned head into it. The rest of the picture will depict a large graffiti of a chinese dragon coming out of the wall poised to grab the central characters oh and as I look at this I realize I have forgotten to draw in the guitar slung at her back. I actually prefer the sketch on the left at this stage and might re do the pencil with a smother style once the full colour image is finished.

I'm in the process of getting some art I have purchased from friends in the illustration community framed, here is a wall in my office showcasing some of Craig Phillips work, check out his and other artists on the links to the right.

I have just discovered the world of painter an awesome piece of software that some how escaped my notice until now but I'll be doing a lot of catching up as it has me very inspired

Here is one of a number of sketches I will be doing of Lior. In my opinion one of Australia's best singer song writers

Ok, so this is the last time I will be putting these pics up, they're not finished yet but I needed to even out this blog from all the kidsy stuff. I will put up some cafe sketches next.

The same was required for the boys mag

Diney Optus ad for girls magazine, required illustrations in the feel of the tittle but also with a touch of Walt D.

Soooo... what are the worms doing again? illustrations for Gross out page in K-Zone.

I was contracted to Art direct K-Zone magazine for about 4-5 months, the southern hemispheres top kids mag. It was interesting to say the least... I'm the guy with the Wolvie claws... hey I'm a comic nerd how could I resist?

A comic for 'Total Girl' magazine...

While I'm in the black and white mood, I'll put this up. A job for a talented young director Luke Baker who needed storyboards and style boards for a Sony video clip. I originally made it into the video but I think I forgot to cover the VB logo on my beer can and I got cut out... at least that's what Luke tells me.

The final pic had the knife taken out as it was for a tv cooking show and they didn't want to send the wrong message, fair enough but I kinda liked it like this.. dose this mean I'm a bad person mum?

This job was a done as a 12 sec animation for channel 10's 'Rove live' back in 2005.

Whilst working in-house at Pacific Magazines as a designer, I was fortunate enough to get a few freelance illustration jobs this one was for Girlfriend magazine.

These guys were done for Streets Paddle pop as part of an ad in Kz-one and Total girl magazine

And the winner is....

These were done for a marketing/branding company. These images can also be seen on the side of the company van as well as merchandise.

Hello people, I'm back and hopefully here to visit a bit more regularly. I've got a bit of catching up to do so I'm going to put up a couple of vector jobs for your amusement. If you get the chance check out another new blog spot just started up by Craig Phillips, there is a link to his page on the right. chao amigo's
