something im working on but clearly is in its earlier stages

Usual work done in ai, took about an hour.

this was an old image but I still like its style and is one of the most key images in the development of my work, I also remember it being the most spontaneous, I didnt plan it at all I just did it and it worked, which i think is the best sometimes once you have a feeling for an image its best to just pursue it.  Its the image that really I think was the turning point for me in the way I often compose editorial images and the elements that i often like to include in my images to balance the space.

this was a speculative image for an editorial from new scientist on a random occurance of people simply dying for no reason. The concept here being that it can happen to anyone at any time and these people all carry the potential for it to happen to them, the turnover image was a negative space of color, with a figure with a large Red cross, i will post it when i find it, the obvious thinking that he has died.

this was a speculative cover done in ink as a bookcover for the tempest

this was an image i created for an editorial on nightwalking

this was an image i created using gouache and ink, It was about inner wellbeing and feelings particularly to do with trying to create calm feelings and trying to control how you can make yourself feel

this was a speculative idea for a editorial about bacteria

unfinished

currently working on this would like to add more detail and depth to the tones of the background and overall layering on the image, as well as adding more suggestions of figurative forms into the composition.

sorry its been so long between posts, so adding a couple of images. This sketch is only a beginning I want to finish the final with ink maybe gum arabic. Possibly a digital version also.

clearly internet companies havent heard that we have a problem with the environment must be all those big dark warehouses they dont see whats happening in the world

the beginnings of an image im making, I dont think it needs too much tho otherwise the clarity would be lost, I want to create some more organic light formations with other illustrations tho

Yiyun my second commission for the Guardian, the simplicty of the design in my view always helps to focus the thoughts of an often complex narrative, bringing forward the most important aspects of the theory and story behind the illustration.

This was one of the first illustrations that I created using primarily gouache and ink and using compositional elements that for me I carried on to newer illustrations and were part of the development of the working practices that I use within any of my illustrations, wether they are digital or traditional medias.
