I Made You A Mixed Tape - is now open for viewing at the Corban Estate Arts Centre, in Henderson, Auckland. The opening went really well - thanks to all those who stopped by! It was great to see so many people are passionate about illustration. There are approx 20 artists in the exhibition and three rooms packed full of work to view and to purchase. I have a few of my explorers prints, more of the isles series and a new series about giants.

Thanks to Anne-Sophie and the Corban Estate crew for inviting me to be a part of it! The exhibition runs till the 4th of March so do have a look see if you get the chance.

New Year

January 10, 2012

Welcome back to a new year! Any one else feel like that break went REALLY fast? Perhaps it was all the rainy days spent inside.

Any way its good to be back in the studio - As previously mentioned I have some illustrations in the current issue of Good Magazine. If you havent heard of Good definitely get a copy, it is full of all sorts of 'goodness'!

The article I illustrated was about 'Cultivating the Art of Slow' - which is something I definitely need to do more of. The second part of the article examined personality types and suggested ways you could choose a more balanced 'slower' lifestyle.

It was a real interesting read and great fun drawing different characters for each type. What number are you?

You can pick up your copy here or at your local supermarket/bookstore.
