About Me

Studying a BA in illustration at Camberwell School of Art.

Above are the drawings I did based on a chair. I chose the Vegetal chair which was designed by the two french brothers 'The Bouroullec Brothers'. The chair design is based on the structure of a chair - and was inspired by a previous design the brothers created which is a canopy like structure based of the structure of algae. I like how this chair is modern, designed from 2004- 2008, yet challenges the modern mentality that less is more. Its intricate form can work in a natural garden environment, but can look equally as good in an ultra-minimal interior.


sketches of a little dog thing I drew 

below is an illustration from eel pie island - amazing island in twickenham - go if you ever get the chance!





Above are a series of illustrations based on a japanese story about a women who makes the best dumplings in her town. Shes casually making them in her kitchen when her floor caves in and her dumpling goes down with it. She chases the dumpling and finds herself in a new undiscovered world- (which I based on Bulba Hill - the butter world I posted a few weeks ago) Anyway shes running after this dumpling and passes a strange man who tell her to beware as there are creatures who eat people like her further down the path. She decides to ignore this information and continues down the path. Another one of these men grab her, and he tells her to hide behind him as one of the monsters is coming. The hideous monster approaches sniffing the air, sensing a tasty human snack. He spots her but is persuaded to simply keep her as a personal chef, he takes her home to his house where she is given a magic paddle to make her dumplings. This paddle with just one grain of rice, multiplied and multiplied with enough rice to feed all the monsters. But this life wasnt for mrs dumpling, one day she decided to make a run for it. When the monsters went out, she grabbed the paddle and ran down to the lake. There she got in a boat and rowed as fast and far away as she could. Unfortunately the monster find out she was missing and ran after her. She laughs at them thinking how on earth are you going to swim over and catch me- how wrong she was. The monsters start slurping up the water in the lake until her boats stranded on the river bed. They start running towards her, there's nothing she can do, so she decides to grab the paddle and start waving it in their faces. This unexpectedly makes the monsters go into fits of hysterical laughter, so much so that they vomit all the water back up - Mrs dumpling surfs the wave home, paddle in tow and becomes the most success women in town, as she and her magic paddle feed the whole neighbourhood.  Quite a nice little story... 




The images above are from a poster project - where we had to pick a well known slogan and redesign it leaving behind its well known connotations - Mine was Power to the People ...




These are some postcard designs I did for my butter world- which is a few posts back...

These are some drawings I did for summer project each one tells you something about myself -  but I'll let you try and work that out ...


                                                                        Edible book
Book I made out of rice paper - It has a recipe on how to make an orange sponge cake on it - because I used orange flavoured icing sugar as glue to stick the paper together -  also it meant you can eat literally everything 





these are some print slash illustrations I produced from just interesting people round london done from photographs I took. I used non inkjet o.h.p. paper to print out my photos but because the ink doesn't stick I just printed the ink onto paper and then filled in the distorted image with pen - worked quite nicely




These are a series of images based on a slice of text taken from a book which is based on the cuban revolution.  



These are some painting/illustrations I did based on a tomato- the idea was based on me just slicing and re-slicing through a tomato until their wasnt anything left apart from the cells 



Just drawing I did ...


                                                                  Chewing gum nativity  

This was a fun christmas project we were set on foundation where we had to make a nativity based to the birth of chewing gum. The three of us ate chewing gum for about two days it was intense - but I thought was quite a nice little thing . The concept was meant to make it look as disgusting as possible by sticking all this chewed gum in our set - but when the light shines on it - it reflects the lord jesus christ himself

This is a final image I created for an editoral project we were set. We had to pick a headline, and have no knowledge as to what it related to and just look at the one sentence and illustrate basically. My headline was 'New attack on cancer with nano weapon'. So I came up with the concept that cancer is an all consuming disease that strips people of their individuality - in the sense it is common to loose your hair and fluctuate in weight when under going treatment - So I wanted to project the idea of peeling this exterior away and unveiling the person that is there all along.



This is my first group project based on a classic story tale of a princess and her ugly step sister- basically cinderella but not.  We created this 5 min animation to illustrate the story as clearly as we could. I think overall it worked out pretty good - there was a few dramas with trying to get everyones ideas incorporated and still making it flow but we got there. 



This is a map of my mind. I made a collection of drawings of weird misshapen fruit and veg. From these I thought about what attracted me to look into deformed food - really I just like bulbous, fleshy forms and from this I created a world that summed up my love for shape, form and food. This world is made from pure butter - which surprisingly is really good to sculpt with and I managed to get quite alot of detail. Only down side was when I brought it into my crit it started melting as our studios quite warm
