Some WIPs for the Marvellous Ms Doody 3
Having taken part in the first two Ms Doody exhibitions I am taking a slightly different tack with the subject matter this time- the pieces are slightly more introspective and thoughtful than the usual cute stuff, but perhaps this is a natural evolution. Anyway, comments and critique are welcome.

Website Launched & Many Other Newses
Hello all from the far reaches of cyberspace.
I have been most remiss in posting, which is made all the worse because so much has been happening. I submitted a piece for the Schaffas 2 exhibition which you can see at http://www.screamdance.com/schaffas_pages/schaffas2_62.html as well as all the other crazy entries- some of which are outstanding! There is also a Schaffas Artbook which has photos of all the schaffas from the two exhibitions.
Tickle Me Zoo, the childrens' book I am illustrating is in the final stages of painting- just doing the covers. Ben Long and I recieved second place at the CYA writers' and illustrators' conference for Graphic Novels and Illustrated Children's Books.

A big thanks to Tom Need at 28smith for helping me host and build a great space for me to hang all my pictures up! Cheers Tommo! Here it is folks:
There are still a few things I want to tweak out, but it's up and available for viewing.
Coming in October, Friday 29th, Adelaide Illustrators presents: Illustre 2010- a showcase of Adelaide Illustration which will feature artwork by me! among others.

Rust
This is a redo featuring some of the suggestions made by Drew- well pretty much all of them really. The image isn't exactly the same dimensions now but overall it works much better- thank you Drew.
I am gradually becoming more intuitive with digital paint- yay.
"A sword, a spade, and a thought should never be allowed to rust"

Irish poet and storyteller, 1882-1950
My interpretation of the above quote sees a young King or Emperor being taken out to a forgotten edge of the kingdom by his tutor to show him why this must be.
Digital paint.

Ice Angel WIP
A purely digital paint with an attempt to get away from drawing and invest in a more painterly style with some moderately strong shadows, but with little or no black. A bit more to do I think. Comments welcome.

Top Scores
An editorial piece about video games and classical influences.
Sketch in pencil with digital colour.
The palette is subdued green grays with the red chosen to bounce off that.
Just trying to work up my digital painting skills and also develop a time effective process for digital work.
