My First Job

-

Since I started my blog I have been looking back at my work over the years, what fun this has been! I have also been cleaning up my very messy work room (not so much fun!) and, in the process came across my very first illustration job - The Luvenders, a book written by an Irish author, June Considine and published by Poolbeg Press. It was about these creepy creatures called, yes you guessed it- The Luvenders! The job brief was to design and layout the cover. June still writes and these books have been published in many different languages.


My very first book cover and a great start to any illustrators career!

Illustrated map of Canada It has taken me ages and I am still not finished! I am really enjoying illustrating this map of Canada, but need a little break from maps! I have illustrated it with the cities and the towns of the different states. Then I have added the animals from the region. I hope to have it finished in the next week, I will post the final image when it is completed. Hope you like it!

Kids Map Of The UK & Ireland

Kids Map of the UK & Ireland (unfinished) I have decided to do a range of wall maps of different countries. I finished my USA map and am now starting the UK & Ireland. I have found that I really like illustrating maps! Also, I am not illustrating them in my usual hand drawn/painted way, I do hand draw all the animals and map outlines but then scann them onto my computer. I then colour them in on the computer and place them on the map, the text is then added, simple as that! Well, not that simple, it really takes my a long time, but I hope you think it is worth it. I am going to get samples printed, when I have approved them they will be printed and ready to buy, I will keep you posted!
