Here’s my recent screenprinted illustration for the Branchage Film Festival which is held in Jersey each September…(worth looking into as the events and screenings around the island sound amazing). http://www.branchagefestival.com/

Here is an illustration about art dealers for the March edition of the magazine, ‘World of Interiors’.

I’ve been meaning to draw up a fabric print design made up of jugs with faces for a while, but meanwhile I made a quick screenprint. I feel sorry for him.

This is a poem from Ted Hughes ‘Birthday Letters’ about Sylvia Plath riding her horse Sam, and falling underneath him as he galloped home…same thing happened to me when I was 15 in Oxfordshire..will write more on that later..

Farming seaweed in Galicia..

Hello, this is my latest screenprinted illustration, it’s for a competiton about promoting cycling in London (run by Association of Illustrators in conjuction with London transport)…

An experiment on wallpaper (just one sheet so far). A Great Aunt’s birthday do, she’s lying on the chez-lounge at her own party surrounded by her grandchildren and various descendents. I made this piece for a wallpaper exhibition being organised by East London Printmakers – ‘Off the Wall’ at the Dreamspace Gallery in London, 22nd March – 9th April.

Illustration of a Ted Hughes poem ‘Earthenware head’ about a clay head portrait of Sylvia Plath’s head, made by a friend. Sylvia felt extremely disturbed by her clay version and after collecting it, they left it in the branches of a November tree.
