animal mask #1



Something I've been working on over the last couple of days. I think I preferred the earlier version without the colour, but I'm ok with this. Sorry the photos aren't so good!

Miranda July



A little tribute to Miranda July. I just finished her book of short stories and can't get them out of my head.

Here's a sketch I did this evening for a possible future painting. Thought I'd try using coloured pencil for a change.

Monkey Suit



My nephew, Daire, is obsessed with "nananas" (bananas) at the moment. Here he is in a monkey suit looking pensive. He took his first 2 steps today!

All the ways to say 'I love you'



Here's an illustration I've been working on for an exhibition that's taking place in London soon. The brief was to illustrate something on the theme 'All the ways to say I love you'.

Lepus



Hare

Bear




'Lepus', 'Hare' and 'Bear' were based on Medieval Bestiaries, a book of parables which used animals to illustrate religious themes and moral tales in Medieval times. One story explained that bears gave birth to cubs that were without shape or form, so the mother bear had to lick the cub into shape. I also came across stuff like this, "The wolf may not bend his neck backward in no month of the year but in may alone, when it thundereth". Love it! :)

Oh Deer...


I called this 'Oh Deer' because it happened by accident...
