My newest piece has quite a few little details in it so I wanted to post something that would let you have a little sneaky peek at those since the mice are so mini!!

First off, here is the WIP – as you can see… at this point the mice haven’t been done, the wall has only been shaded a little and so on… I tend to sketch my pieces really tiny on paper just in case i decide to add more around it later on. Due to that, the mice look very odd here hehe! (They ended up just being a guide as I could not find a smaller pencil for the sketch details.

Now to compare with the final version… Looks deeper eh? ;D This takes soooo much patience and an incredible amount of layers! – I like to save step by step versions of all my work so I can have a CD of all the files in my portfolio.

Time for the details! Yay!

Here is a blown up version of the Tulips. I should have probably put a little more shading into these but they looked pretty cool as they were. – To all you plant specialists… I’m pretty sure they have faults for tulips Nevermind hehe! You don’t usually get mice carving a pumpkin either i guess?

A spider!! This got added after the initial sketch. I thought the area in the middle looked a little empty so it needed something?! What better than a friendly spider! I bet you didn’t realise it had blue eyes before

This little guy obviously went all out on the helping! He is far too full to carry on! What better than to enjoy a little nap after a feast?

You always get adventurous friends! Well… this is the mousy kind! He has travelled deep inside the massive pumpkin to discover the tasty bits! I have to admit, he acts more like a mole.

The hard worker. I guess this one is also a bit of a perfectionist too! We cant have lumps and bumps in the wrong places! He took on the “Boss” role hehe!

Now for the one that will do anything for food! That’s the only reason hes working you know! Well… obviously not while hes munching but you get the idea I hope he knows things don’t come served on a plate for you! Although, saying that, the insides of the pumpkin might be used for making a pie later.

Last but not least, the little one that inspects everything! “How do I know its not poisonous?! You don’t eat things off the street!” – This guy doesn’t anyway Far too dangerous!

Well that covers all the details! I hope you have enjoyed your little journey through this blog post hehe! Please leave comments on your favourite character! I’m sure they would want to know they are loved

Hope you like the new one! Thank you for reading!

I wasnt sure if I was going to see a picture of my pieces in the Exhibition that happened in New York this month but here it is?!

There’s only one but its so cool to see your work hanging somewhere! Especially if its your first Gallery Exhibition! Yaayy!

Im not sure who the man is? But oh well.

I think thats all the news I have to update on right now. A little slow and I swear this blog hasnt been updated for ages! My apologies!

For more pictures from the exhibition, please go here

Oh My!! My first real blog post on the new blog haha! Woohooo!

Okie, well this little guy took me awhile! Probably because he kept protesting to be finished Didnt get his way this time im afraid! haha!

Hope you like it!!

Its been awhile now that I havnt really been too pleased with my website. It really needed editing… nothing was getting updated because it was a pain in the butt to do so… It probably wasnt too user friendly…I know it looked weird in Mac. Ugh.. the list is endless!

So I made a new one! This time with the blog inside it too! (That means it will actually get updated!! Oh My God!) lol!

I really hope everything is working and not too difficult to navigate!

So… Im just going to list a few changes that have been made from the original since the “look” is pretty similar…

1. For reading, you dont have to scroll endlessly in a stupidly small box
2. The page will automatically adapt to your screen size
3. We now have a blog inside the website!
4. There is now a fully updated portfolio which can be viewed using lightbox
5. You can now contact me using the Contact Form
6. You can also link back to the site if you wish
7. Anyone can comment on the blog (whether you have wordpress or not)
8. And I hope it looks slightly more appealing to you too!

I think that’s everything? You might find a few more that i might have forgotten… but you get the gist

I hope you like it!!

Have fun exploring and I would love to know what you think!

I got an Email the other day inviting me to the APW art exhibition featuring “Small Works Big Ideas”

Just a quickie to let you know that my work will be attending Unfortunately I don’t think I will be able to make it down to New York… but my characters will be representing me ;P

First one! aah! I hope it goes well
