Desk of the Day - A family of Matryoshka

This desk of the day was from July but I didn't want to post it then as they were for an anniversary in August.

This will be my last set of Russian Dolls (for a long time anyway). It's been such a fun order to end on, probably one of my favourites. It's always really special when I'm asked to make/paint something that will be a gift for someone.

I'll be sharing the final pictures next week!

Desk of the Day - Adventure Time Vans OTW

I've been working on these shoes for a little while now, and I'm really enjoying working on them. They're one of my favourite themes - Adventure Time! And I've included a load of characters that I don't usually get to paint on shoes... Cinnamon Bun has been one of my favs to paint.

Can you guess which characters all of these are?

Desk of the Day - Can you guess who it is?

Today I'm working on a little portrait of one of my favourite artists. Can you guess who it's going to be?

Desk of the Day - Sneaker Time

Today I'm working on an illustrator drawing of some Nike Air Force 1 sneakers. I got some white ones for my birthday and have been itching to paint them for a while! I'm going to use this drawing to figure out some designs for them before I paint!

Desk of the Day - Clowns & Cats

I finished my first year of uni yesterday! So today I'm getting back to illustrating just for fun, and it feels good.
Obviously I started off with one of my fav subjects, cats. This is going to be part of my sushi cats series.

Desk of the Day - Geometric Origami

There's only two weeks until the end of this uni term for me, so I've been spending the last couple of weeks working like crazy for my deadlines.

Today I'm working on a geometric origami based pattern for my project, here's a sneak peak:

Desk of the Day - Origami Flowers

Today I'm working on some digital patterns and illustrations based on origami for my latest uni project. I think these patterns look a little geometric and crisp for the look I'm going for so I may have to find a way to re use them.

Desk of the Day - Milk Cartons & Mushrooms

This is yet another desk of the day I forgot to post a couple of weeks ago! These have been some of my fav shoes to work on, I can't wait to show you the finished shoes!

Desk of the Day - Make up and Bows

Well, this isn't exactly today's desk, but I forgot to share these photos a couple of weeks ago when I was working on these shoes. I loved painting the girly make up and bows theme on these shoes.

Desk of the Day - Rainbows and BMOs

Today I've been working on some super happy and bright converse in my fav theme and fav colour!

Desk of the Day 29/03/14 - Angry and Lumpy

It's been a long time since I did some illustrations just for fun, so today I'm having fun playing about with Illustrator and Photoshop. This illustration features two of my favorite subjects, can you guess what they are?

I just have to complete the background on this picture then it'll be ready to share with you guys.

Desk of the Day 23/03/14 - A Rainbow of Russian Dolls

I've finished uni for the Easter Holidays now, so I'm finally getting a chance to paint again! Today I'm working on some fun and bright Russian Dolls.

 

Desk of the Day 23/02/14 - Pastel Clouds

Sorry for the lack of posts lately guys, I have an abundance of uni work and house hunting to be doing. But I'm still finding time to paint pastel clouds on shoes!

This is a new pair of converse I'm working on. Can you guess what the white blobs are going to be?

 

Desk of the Day - 09/02/14 Making uni work as kawaii as possible

Today I'm working on my tech file. Along side our projects at uni we're supposed to create a file full of techniques and things we've learned during our classes. Right now I'm working on some pages introducing all the machines we use to make shoes and what they do. As you can guess, it gets a little boring just typing up notes so I couldn't resist making the machines into little kawaii monsters! They're not all as friendly as they look & can be dangerous, but they're pretty helpful when it comes to making shoes.

Desk of the Day - The land of Ooo

This is my newest Adventure Time order I've been working on. The main theme I was given was "The Land of Ooo" so I've tried to include as many featured of Ooo as possible.

It's been fun to think about the background and surroundings of the characters more in this pair of shoes. I'd love to do a Candy Kingdom themed pair one day.

You can see more of my Adventure Time shoes here, and my other shoes here.

Desk of the Day - Can you guess who it is?

I'm currently working on some Russian Dolls for Chris Simpsons Artist, if you don't know who this guy is check him out. His comedic illustrations and stories always make me laugh. I'm painting these dolls in Chris's infamous illustration style but with a bit of a PonyChops twist.

Can you guess which celebrities I've painted on these dolls? Here's some hints:

1. I'm dead and I like milk.
2. I like corgis.
3. I made art of funny clocks.
4. My nickname is Chewie.
5. Doh!
