ME,MARIONETTE

I seriously recommend a trip to Brighton's Ink'd gallery this week to see Graham Carter's Me, Marionette exhibition. His laser cut wooden sculptures are made with 100% attention to detail, every piece is unique and beautiful and the little world he's created is just lovely. There, gushing over. It comes down Sunday though so be quick! Info and cool animations here: http://www.graham-carter.co.uk/me-marionette/astronaut/

AUSTRALIA





I'M BAAAACK! Did you miss me? After two weeks of Australian adventures, I have returned to dear old England and seem to have brought some sunshine with me. I'll be popping a few sketches and photos from the trip up on Owlstation over the next few days. Starting off with some sketches from the outback (above). This was definitely the highlight, whilst it may be barren, hot, dusty and dangerous out there, it is also very special indeed and a very bright shade of red.

ESKIMO/THE THING

Whilst watching 'The Thing' with Kurt Russell at the weekend, I found inspiration to draw a few snowy scenes featuring eskimos. Brilliant film, I love Kurt. I was a bit dissatisfied with the ending though, I didn't think the final 'thing' was quite big enough . Lots of lovely snowscapes and blizzards to be enjoyed in between the gory bits however. 







ZOMBIES



I like to try out different styles of working, accept projects that are a bit unusual and generally pull out my safety blanket from underneath me, as I think this can help any creative to learn and improve their skills. To this end I have recently been working on some concept art for a Zombie film! It's early days yet and I'm not allowed to give too much away but I have permission to share some of my work with you, be warned it might get grisly!
