creating a new portrait piece for a exhibition held in colerado this month. the exhibition is called 'in the midst of hope' which is a charity event to help raise money for awareness for children in uganda. the show is curated by patrick maxcy.

the piece that I'm working on is combined with inspiration from wildlife parts and I'm trying out some new techniques of drawing with my trusty pen, adding a bit of flow and movement in the patterns so it looks like the plans or merging out of the face like air.

hopfully it'll look alright when its finished!

Its been a busy month for me on the start of 2011!
as a new start of the year i will most definatly be posting more pieces and sketches up on here so keep your eyes pealed for that :D.
this month iv been comissioned to do a epic wall piece for the amazing be-street for there exhbition at ice shop mess around. you can check them out on http://www.be-street.com/.
i had to create a somewhat winter season landscape that involved a yeti and my style of pattern drawing. this is what i came up with :D:









the wall designs scaled to 11m long and 2 m high which was a challenge for me to scale somthing that big on my laptop, fortunatly i managed to do it and turned out really cool ! the designs where imported onto illutrator and then vectored so that it doesnt pixelate when scaling them.

hopfully will do more of this type of work somtime in the future :)









chow! x
