Scrumpy


This is a portrait of my sisters dog Scrumpy I did for her in the summer, 
Still need to work on my pencil reproductions ... or win the lottery so I can buy a drum scanner

Hokusai wave mural

I've recently worked with Plymouth Museum on a mural for their surfing exhibition with Paolo Fiore and Joe Lyward. It was based on the 'Under the Wave of Kanagawa' by Hokusai with some illustartive modifications.  


It took us 3 long days to finish it...



and a cherry picker to reach the crest of the wave

 


The finished piece!


Paolo designed some funky jelly fish pattern and the surfers 


and I designed the crest of the wave as dolphins
