Leigh Art Trail 2010

I was recently selected to take part in my hometown of Leigh-on-sea's annual art trail, which will take place next summer. Its the first time I've entered to exhibit my work, and I will be creating a whole new selection of artwork focused on my hometown and surrounding areas.
In the mean time, I have created this image of Hadleigh Castle one of the local landmarks, for a secret postcard auction to raise money for the trail.

Don't Panic, Cutty Sark Whisky Design Competition


I recently entered a competition hosted by Don't Panic Online for the whisky brand Cutty Sark.
The brief was to create a piece of artwork based on the theme of 'The Independent London Whisky'

For my entry I chose to depict London as an Island, sitting independently in a large swirling ocean, the city remains a busy place, at its heart sails the Cutty Sark, with a whisky bottled hull!

The competition went through a voting process, with the top 10 entries to be judged, I finished 1st with the most votes. I am currently awaiting the judges verdict!

Using different styles and methods of Illustration for each piece, each image depicts an iconic landmark from around the city.
