Hello! You may recall that I mentioned I had started a new project called PirateUnicorn Designs alongside a fellow Illustrator. I'm pleased to announce that our new shop is now OPEN for business.

Touchscreen Technology

New editorial Illustration to surround an article about touchscreen technology.

Film poster time

Sorry it has been so quiet around here lately! I've been experimenting with some pixel art illustrations recently, as part of a fun new project with Fellow Illustration Ms. Robinson: PirateUnicorn Designs. We are collaborating to design cards, badges and anything else we fancy! I will be able to show some some work soon, as soon as our online shop is live :-)

In the meantime, a poster design for the excellent film: The Truman Show. I'm seeing what happens when I combine pixels with pencils; so far, I like it!

I have also got myself a tumblr, (carlydraws.tumblr.com) which will be a mirror of all the posts here. If you've not got one, try it out!

Re-cycling

Hello!
Here is a new editorial I have just finished, about the joys of getting on your (recycled) bike. You can also see it in this month's flair competition.

Cromer

I went on a nice relaxing trip to Cromer with a few friends not too long ago; so here is my version of my favourite spot on Cromer beach. You might see it up at they draw and travel sometime soon hopefully!

Jane Eyre

hello!

I've been enjoying doing some book cover redesigns lately, here is a just for fun piece for a Jane Eyre redesign competition on the fox is black design blog have a look to see the other entries. It was fun trying to capture the gothic romantic atmosphere of the book without going too murky or dark. I'd not read the book before, so it was cool to give it a go; I liked it a lot more than I thought I would.
ta-ra for now

The Paleo Diet

Sorry it's been a while. I'm redoing my website at the moment, and it's taking longer than I wanted! Here is a new Illustration I have just finished, for an article about 'The Paleo Diet'. It's a healthy eating plan about having seasonal fresh veggies and local meat and fish. It's up for voting in this months' Flair competiton
