Photos Taken From Commute

Wet and rainy street heading towards station London

Experience the joys of London travels. I have to admit that I tried to take the pictures when it was slightly quieter on the stations. It's these types of images that have been inspiring my drawings. People ask me if I draw on the tube, the truth is... no, don't complete a finished pencil drawing whilst on my 20 minute commute. What I see inspires me but none of what upload is like for like. It will resemble some bits and pieces. I'm aiming to create a feeling of community with our travels a feeling -

' Yeah, that's what my journey is like '

Business Card Sized Mini Prints. Artwork samples & illustrations. 1st Run

Mini Printed Pictures

I printed these mini business card sized pictures with idea to hand them out as sample prints to prospective businesses and to canvas for private commissions. Being pleased with the general quality of these miniature reproductions I am offering the last of the first run (1st Run) to the open market. Being satisfied with result of this batch I intend to print another batch although the characters and prints themselves may well be different in the next set.

Character Sketches From Train Journey To Work - Random faces, Wimbledom Imp

Wimbledon characters and random sketches

Do you ever find one random sketch leads to another..? These are some faces that I have taken from my sketch book en-route to work in the London rush hour. The man sitting on the bench is based on an actual person I've seen sat outside Wimbledon Centre Court with his stomach hanging from under his shirt, smiling to the world - he reminded me of a happy gnome! Apparently, completely oblivious to the fact that all was hanging for the world to see in broad daylight, it was a spectacle to behold and slightly strange.
put it away! (Yet, I felt the need to draw this!)

Thanks,
