Valentine's Day Card
This was for an uni project we got to choose what we wanted to draw.
So obviously Pin-up Greeting Cards!
As it was only a short project I only did a couple.
This is the valentine's day card, its my favourite =)
Draw in: Derwent Pastel pencils and Faber Castell colour pencils.

Shark NOM NOM NOM!
Last Cover =)
This one was for the book "James and the Giant Peach" I was going to enter it into the penguin competition but I forgot about it and missed the deadline my a few days! Drat.
I went crazy on this piece all cut out from watercolour paper, that I did myself.
I lost count how many times I sliced my finger open cutting out the different parts of the image.
The line art is done with a screen print, printed on to some acetate and over laid on top of it.

With out text, and two different colours =)
Idoru
This is another book cover design, for 'Idoru'.
I wanted this to be a kind of optical illusion, so you can't see the girl until you look at it for a few mins.
So here are the four prints.
Backgrounds are done in a mixture of chalk and conte, with the girl screen printed on top.
I really wanted the line art to be printed in that awesome shiny gold foil. But in Uni we don't have the right equipment to produce that. =( So I just have to make do with dodgy gold paint.
And here is the line art, as the scans are not the best in the world. Sorry for the dirty background!
