One of a fascinating series of commissions for Old Maiden Aunt Yarns; each featured a creature from celtic folklore. The designs were used as part of Old Maiden Aunt Yarns' Yarn Club 2011. The colour used in each drawing matched a knitting yarn colour inspired by each creature, with my drawings featuring on cotton bags to be included in the yarn packages sent to each subscriber.

This was a fun commission! I was asked to produce six drawings to be used in a book all about the art of knitting socks (Socktopus, GMC Publications, 2011). My contribution would show the most common sources of yarn used for sock knitting. I enjoyed capturing the animals' different characters, and learned a lot too!
This one is an angora goat.

For example, did you know that there is no single breed of cashmere goat? There are many different varieties of goat from around the world that produce cashmere.

These silkworms were a challenge, as the brief requested that the animals look cute and endearing - not the most inherently adorable of animals, but I think I did it!

One of a series of images created as a collaboration with Montreal-based writer Michael Charpentier. Written for Canadian indie magazine Highbrau, Michael's piece Aladdin's Ring explores memory, sense of place and the feelings that can be evoked by objects. His writing radiates sincere emotion while being punctuated with elements of humour and charm, feelings which I tried to capture in my drawings.

This Drawing, created for Amelia's Magazine, was for a review of a show at the Barbican called The Devil and Mister Punch. Created by the theatre group Improbable, it's a surreal and darkly funny take on British theatre traditions.
