Holiday Snapshot Sketches

Summer holiday in Rhodes, Greece 
Brought a great book, which I planned to finish, and then read another.
I did neither - instead I drew a lot:

Breakfast view

Pornstar Martini, Negroni. Waiting, drawing.

Rhodes Clocktower

Early morning,  sea like a lake, one lady flapping her hands against the water.

Captain's crest

Boat ride queue

Birthday Boy

Lindos Bay after a big dinner

Whitstable (Back in England!)

Christmas Wreath Making !


Went foraging with my wicker bike basket and gardening gloves.
Bought ribbon.
Sat on the floor, surrounded by pine needles and berries. And chocolate.

East London Illustrated Map


One piece of paper, a knife, some ink.

As a London based illustrator, I created a map of East London for an editorial brief from Boat Magazine. My illustrated map shows my first six months in this amazing city. The pubs, markets ( Columbia Road Flower Market, Broadway Market, Ridley Road ) London Fields, Victoria Park, the canal, derelict buildings, new towers in the city - and the Rio Cinema, passed by a continuous stream of buses and whirring police sirens.
