Up, Up and Away

+ Happy birthday to my little sis!

Birthdays

It's a big birthday for my little sis this weekend. She's turning 21 and we're off to Wales to celebrate with her - hurrah! It's been a while since I've seen her (or my other brother and sister for that matter), so I'm very excitable today! Happy Birthday little sis!


Ooh, and if you're ever in Wales, don't forget to pick up some welsh cakes! (click here for some background). They're our best kept secret - I can't seem to find them anywhere in London!

R is for....

...Ralph!

Elisha in the garden

Elisha was teaching cat how to propagate the plants...

the monkey that didn't make it in...

(from Thomas' pirates illustration). The bottom version made it, but it'd be a shame to waste the other little guy...

Red Riding

Confined

Boy told monster not to leave the box...

Monsters

Getting back into the work groove with some hairy, scary monsters...

A cowboy and a pirate

Thought you might enjoy seeing these two 10 x 12 portraits commissioned for my best friends nephews... I'd like you to meet cowboy jojo and his rather adventurous bro, pirate thomas... :)

Merry Christm"aargh"s!

Happy holidays everyone! No, I've not been kidnapped, I didn't trip over the fairy lights, or fall through a hole in the snow... I'm still here! Hurrah! Hope you have a super Christmas break. Thanks so much for sticking with me. I'm looking forward to sharing lots of new work here in the new year.... :)

Music

My other half only does the hoovering if he can listen to music too....

Boys and cars

Who knew that drawing a Scalextric track would be so time consuming...!

Unbalanced

TV goes 3D

TV goes 3D next week on Channel 4. Sainsbury's is handing out those free card glasses - so I picked up a pair for Beaver and mouse, and they seem to be enjoying themselves...

Blur

Bear and beaver got some really blurry pictures from their new camera....

R is for a raccoon caught in the rain...

Happy Halloween!

A really quick one from me - just to say Happy Halloween!! I've been way too distracted baking pumpkin pies, creepy cupcakes and ghost biscuits to get any other illustrations done today, whoops! :-/ Have a lovely weekend all. Hope you're having lots of fun!

No Henry, Stop!

...Not so fast! Henry really just doesn't know when to hit the brakes...

It's raining again...

...and Stella didn't realise how much she enjoyed it! Happy weekend!
