Illustrations for Mandala Magazine in Singapore

It's been a while since I posted any updates as I just got married a few weeks ago and I'm only recently back from my honeymoon. So I'll try to catch up over the next few days with what I've been up to work-wise. First off, some enjoyable drawings I created for Ink Publishing for a Singapore publication called Mandala Magazine. The article was about popular Singapore souvenirs. Here are some spreads.

Creative Review Illustration Annual

Hooray! My 28 Camera Drawings image was selected for inclusion in the very first Creative Review Illustration Annual, which has just been published alongside the July 2010 issue. My image was chosen for the Personal Work category, which was judged by Angus Hyland of Pentagram.

Illustrations for Esquire - July 2010 Issue

The July issue of Esquire magazine has just been published. Here are some illustrations I created for the fiction story.

Penguin Book Cover

Last year I was commissioned to illustrate a cover for the Vladimir Nabokov novel Bend Sinister. It is one of a series of Nabokov covers that have been re-released by Penguin. Pentagram designed the layout and background pattern for each book and a different illustrator was asked to illustrate each one. Here is the cover for Bend Sinister, which was released last week.

Supply Management illustration

This is an illustration I created for the April issue of Supply Management for their Business Travel supplement. The drawing illustrates an article about the increasing number of ancillary fees that are being introduced by many low-cost and mainstream airlines. Commissioned through Private View Agency.

Illustration for Popshot

Here is an illustration I created for the current issue of Popshot, a poetry and illustration magazine where each issue contains a collection of poems written to a theme. A selection of illustrators are then invited to each interpret and illustrate one of the poems. My image illustrates a poem entitled 'Taking Off Our Shoes' by Hollie McNish. The image was created using graphite and colour pencil.

Go Red!

I was asked to create a piece of work for 'Go Red!', a charity event for The Richard House Children's Hospice. Illustrators and artists each created an image of either a head, body or legs, then the images will be arranged together to produce an assortment of weird and wonderful creatures. The images will then be auctioned at the Coningsbury Gallery in London and all proceeds will go to the hospice. Here is my 'robot contraption legs' contribution! More info and other works can be found on the 'Go Red' website.
