		<description><![CDATA[ I enjoyed drawing this banner for Creative Boom very much. I decided to draw a British street and to age the drawing with a hint of sepia to contrast with the blue Creative Boom logo.
It&#8217;s always fun to do something for Creative Boom; it&#8217;s a lively, interesting site with lots going on for creatives [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This illustration for Blanket magazine&#8217;s current issue was inspired by my ongoing obsession with vintage film and theatre posters.
The theme for submissions was Gone But not Forgotten and I drew a dodo because it is probably the most well remembered of all the extinct species and reflects the theme quite well.

		<description><![CDATA[This illustration was created for an article on Amelia&#8217;s Magazine about Bobbin Bicycles. I drew Eloise Moody, who creates rather charming Bowler hats and deerstalkers to be worn over bike helmets.
I loved this idea &#8211; back in the days when I owned a bike, having to wear a helmet really annoyed me and this is [...]]]></description>

It was painted between 5am and 6am in the morning because during the months of August in Cyprus, this is pretty much the only time it is possible to sit outside comfortably. I used to get up before the sun rose over the [...]]]></description>

For a while now, I&#8217;ve been drawing music and fashion illustrations in quite a graphic style, like this example here:

I drew Fionn Regan and suffered an epic moment of angst ridden indecision over whether to do my usual &#8216;lot&#8217;s of background and some trees&#8217; thing or whether to go a bit more minimalist.
