Image for Theatre Company


Recently I completed some character design for a theatre company in Manchester called Digging Deep theatre.
The images I created can be seen below.
Having done theatre reviews during the Edinburgh Fringe Festival I was looking forward to working for a theatre company and hopefully more work will come in this area of the arts soon.
The image itself is to be used on a t-shirt and marketing material. The character is called Sky and the brief was to make her look tied and exhausted, as if she has just got up in the morning.




Papergirl San Francisco


I have some artwork at the Papergirl San Francisco exhibition. The artwork is being handed out by cyclists in San Francisco on 11th November 2012.
The Exhibition itself was on 3rd November at the Incline Gallery at 766 Valencia Street.
I exhibited some of my postcards.
Information on the event can be found here, as well as info on myself and the other artists.
