Birdies!

Lots going on over here at HQ. Haha, I've always wanted to say that, not quite sure what my studio would be the HQ of though. HQ of my creative mind? Although technically that's my brain surely? I think I'm working too hard!

Here's What I Drew Today

For no particular reason, just a sudden compelling urge. Normal services resume tomorrow!

Boy & Bear

Here's the finished final...

If you scroll down a bit you'll see my rough for this image, I thought it might be interesting to see my process. My roughs actually look very much like the final piece!

New Home

I've drawn this for my Nan who is currently mid-move. It's always stressful heading somewhere new, so I hope it all goes smoothly.

Top Santé Magazine

I've been commissioned to do a regular illustration for the Viewpoint column by the lovely folks over at Top Sante. Here's the first one. It's so nice to get a chance to play with my lettering and make that a central feature.

Happy Holidays!

I hope all of my UK-based followers are enjoying their extended holidays! The little pink guy above is my latest character, his story is currently under development (as in, when I have time and when I've finished working on my Frank book!).

Cute Rough

Okay so this is a rough and not a finished drawing at all, but I just wanted to share it with you! Today I've been working on the rough for my Frank book and forcing myself to wait before sending it out. Sometimes I just get a little bit too impatient!

Oh and one more thing...

Before I head off for the weekend (please, please let it be sunny!) here's a doodle I was working on earlier in the week but forgot to post.

A Sneaky Preview

Here's what I'm working on today, a new draft of Frank Finds Some News. He's back and he's cuter than ever!

Hear Me Roar!

Happy Friday folks, hope everyone has nice plans for the weekend and that the sun shines!

What I Drew Today...

By Vicki aged 28 and 3/4.

"Murdo"

A commission from the lovely folks at Storlann. It's a poster demonstrating the body parts in Gaelic. AKA Murdo.

Happy Friday Everyone!

I hope you all have nice plans for the weekend. I'm currently working on a couple of exciting new projects, none of which I can post here at the moment! So instead here's a scene from one of my own books-in-progress about a fox who wants to be a journalist. This one has been sitting on the shelf recently as I've become engrossed with my Ettie story, whenever I have a spare second that is! More Ettie stuff coming soon...

Chicklets

A doodle from me. I like to scribble in-between commissioned jobs as it keeps everything fun and fresh!

Culzean Castle Estate Map

Phew, it's all done and should be up on site soon!

New Card Designs

This week I've been working on card designs for the lovely folks over at Wild Card. Watch out for a new range coming soon!

Another Ettie's Elephants page

So, this one is progressing fairly well and I'm still quite excited by it (always a good sign). Now if only I could find the time to finish it! Wondering who to send it to first...

Pandas in Edinburgh

It's old news, but we're going to be getting pandas at Edinburgh Zoo. Here's a little drawing to celebrate that fact (and for Cate).

Walkies?

Not 100% what the inspiration is behind this one, possibly some residues of guilt I'm harbouring over my hard work this week. Lots of hours at my desk = less walkies time for a certain canine companion of mine...
