Feathertale 6

These are a few new pieces I did for Feathertale 6 (http://www.feathertale.com/).
The stories were pretty odd and funny - so pick up your copy today! (go to their website! ;) )
Cheers!



The Nanny Dog

A piece for my dog's daycare provider, she is expecting a baby - this is her dog Banshee and a baby to represent the future bond between a dog and a child.

First drawing is a preliminary sketch to get the feel for the dogs character and shapes - the final is a caricature of the dog in pen and ink and water colour.




Sunday

Stereotypes and Breaking Them

Personal piece regarding stereotypes with people and pets.
Watercolour and ink.

Wednesday

It's been a while, but I'm still producing artwork!!
A recent commission for Steel City American Bulldogs.
Included is some closeups and process work.




Another nursery piece for a friend, elephants are good luck in her culture and her name began with an S as did her soon to be emerging baby's name - so there are little 's's on the mommy and baby's foreheads.

Here's some of the more winning designs I've been working on - of course final colours would be done in watercolour...

Gone to the Animals

A Panda Pan handling for tasty children.
A commentary on how we've destroyed their habitat and food and they are forced to live in proximity to humans - relying on us for food/protection. Thought it would be fun to take WWF's cuddly panda icon and give it a 'dark side'.


Home is where your mattress lays - Muskrat
A comment on how wildlife are forced to adapt to our waste in their habitats. My partner and I actually saw this in life in a ditch in Windsor. The muskrat had made a home in a mattress in a ditch alongside a major road. Unbelievable.
An old piece that I revamped and worked up a bit...(pen ink/watercolour)


Illustration from my story...in colour (pen and ink/watercolour)

SHARKWATER

This is a promo piece I put together for the production of Sharkwater while working as a designer - it's around 12-15 of Rob Stewart's personal photographs sewn together in photoshop and enhanced with lighting and effects.
The DVD is now out in North America - Please buy it - support an international end to shark finning!

Animal Rights Issues

Plastic surgery is a human invention, as are fashion and pedigree

People don't grow to fit houses, why should fish grow to fit bowls?

A Cage:The Sky. You do the math.

A dog is not less of a "man" when it's without it's balls. Spay and neuter your pet.

Feathertale Review Illustrations

These were for the Feathertale Review - Issue 2
www.feathertale.com
www.feathertale.com/Press/inside_review_02.htm
The topic of the accompanying poetry was poems rejected by Mother Goose.
This one was about a girl who's parents are getting divorced and they are in a one up fight to win their daughters love...

This one was about three girls in a tub...etc etc... :)

Thursday

My story is being illustrated!

Okay, well, it's been a while, and I found a spare moment, so I figured it was about time for a quick update on my story.
Here's the illustration for the first page.
