Barcelona rooftops

 

I sketched these rooftops of apartments whilst visiting Barcelona

Mods 1968

I like drawing characters from particular eras and I have several of these drawings. This one is based around 1968 and is a salute the the Mods. I love the look, the scooters and most of the music!

This illustration took forever, is highly detailed and a gig of photoshop. I guess it took 30+ hours.

This is a sample for a book cover aiming at the teenage market.

The drawing was done in Photoshop using the basic tools and took about an

Astoria Cinema

I love old cinemas. This one is in my home town of Hull and I wanted to capture the monumental size of the building.

Clarence Flour Mill

This illustration was drawn in about a couple of hours in Photoshop. Working quickly stops me from getting buried in detail and keeps the life in the work.
