7 Little Darlings...

...lying on my floor.

Here's a selection of my new prints freshly bagged. They include 3 of my Chinatown NY series. Each started life as an ink drawing before being coloured on my computer.


Each lovingly printed on lightly textured 100% cotton paper. It's so nice to see my work finally on paper rather than just on my computer screen. And, of course, all in the shop.

Hong Kong, that crazy place.


A city of chaos and infinite variety. Once my home for a few years, whenever I go back I'm still amazed by it. Especially on those rare clear days, as on the right.

I think it must be where my love of architecture first began, some of it's ugly, and a lot unnecessary, and a few just down right dangerous, but together they're fascinating.












Now I live surrounded by Victorian terraces and 70's flats in cold, rainy London. Not a bad thing, just very different.





Here's a little something I drew when I was last out there.

Day 2 of the Blog.

A little preview of my next series of illustrations.


And a glimpse into the mess that is my workspace aka the dining room table, no longer used for dining.

These are inspired by Chinatown NY, my latest fascination. I love the architecture, the shop signs and the occasional randomness.
