Well, after quite a while, I've taken up life drawing again :)
I've missed it a lot, it helps me vent frustration and just have fun with what I love... no briefs... no clients... no work... just drawing!
These are quick studies of the drawing above, it's not something I often do but I couldn't which angle was nicest...

ruf stuff
I noticed that I don't often post rough work and for that I appologise.
My favourite thing is seeing the building blocks of other people's illustrations, the magical bits...
So here we go, some heads!
...and weird head-aliens...unicycling head-aliens!

greedy little elephant
Here's a look at another story I illustrated recently, once again for Shuter & Shooter, this one about a greedy little elephant desperate for some pumkiny goodness!
And again I tried something a little different by using pencils and light washes, turned out quite well... think I'll use it again :)

a South African story...
There are so many great stories that unfold quietly and cross the paths of our daily lives, stories not written but lived and living still… people’s stories.
At the beginning of the year, I was invited to join a collective of African comic artists (l’Afrique DessinĂ©e) and participate in putting a book together: "Thembi et Jetje, des tisseuses de l’arc en ciel”.
Each artist was assigned to illustrate a chapter of the story which spans two decades (10 chapters all in all), the book will be published in France by l’Harmattan later this month!

This is Thembi, a Ndebele woman...
And Jetje, an Afrikaans girl.
I loved working with the other guys and gals, some of which were friends that I hadn’t seen since Angouleme 2006!
And as a special treat, you can also take a peek at the cover by Adjim :)
