Here’s a pen and ink illustration for the cover of Grocery Business Magazine that I completed recently. It’s about Kroger, a supermarket chain in the US, that is making efforts to be more environmentally sustainable.
It was really interesting to do the research for this piece, and find ways to create icons for all the important elements of this subject. You can read the article here. Every little helps!
I love seeing how art directors and designers use my illustrations in websites too…
I recently illustrated a small map of Vermont for Middlebury Magazine. It's a lovely little article about the author's annual journey to Bread Loaf. 
I think it's always interesting to see how an illustration starts, so these are the initial sketches I made when I was thinking about how to approach the project. The first sketch, which I ended up working with, shows the map from an aerial bird-eye view, and the entire route. The second sketch shows the road to Bread Loaf in a more 3 dimensional way, although some of the road is hidden behind hills...
I take the page layout into consideration when I work, so it makes me happy to see everything come together nicely on the printed page.
I recently managed to get a copy of Cathay Pacific's inflight magazine featuring my HK toile bowl on the cover.
They even gave me a nice little write up inside...
I still love this toile so much, and am thinking of doing another...
To celebrate the start of the 2016 Olympics, here's a map of Rio I did for Conde Nast Traveller a few years ago. Hope it goes super well!
I did a few little Rio icons for the article too...
I did a fun illustration for the current issue of Click magazine, for their photo contest page, with all sorts of pets. Which one is your style?
I like the layout of the online mag a lot...
Hope you all enter the contest!
I did some chalk drawing backdrops a few months ago for Dr Oz The Good Life Magazine in New York, and I just got a printed copy, yay!
I love this one with the frosty blue colour and wintery trees. Here's a detail of the actual backdrop, where you can see the chalky lines.
And here's a sequence showing my progress as I was drawing.
For the home interior, I started with a more elaborate staircase, but developed my sketches to create a simpler scene. 
I even drew a simplified version of one of my own prints in the background ...
It was a real pleasure to be there on the day of the shoot, here's a little scene of me sketching the set-up.
Let's all walk more this year and get healthy, whatever the background...
I just got back from a quick trip to New York, where I worked on a lovely project for Dr Oz The Good Life magazine. I can't show you what it was yet, but here's a sketch I drew on the photoshoot day. 
I also drew the model several times, in various of her outfits...
The view from the studio was gorgeous, so New York!
I had a fantastic dinner one evening at the Brooklyn Diner, and sketched while I was waiting. The waitress was so happy with the sketch that she gave me a bag of delicious pastries to take home with me! 
I love New York, I really do. I'll be back soon, just you wait and see...
I did some nice grainy line illustrations for the magazine Washington Flyer this month. It's their holiday gift special...
You can see the full issue here.
It was fun to design the wallpaper pattern, and also fun to start thinking about Christmas. I love the holiday season!
I've been doing city and country maps for PCMA Convene magazine in the US for quite a while, and for the most recent issue, I did a clean, bright, minimal map of Puerto Rico, highlighting a few places with black & white pencil icons.
Hello again, I forgot to put these up in June, but thought you might like to see them anyhow. I did some line illustrations on photographs for this advertising campaign for The Observer. I hope you saw them, and voted in time!
I hope I win an award one day too...
