Hello, I would just like to celebrate the fact that this slimy, sluggy F I made for 36 days of type in 2023 has made it into a client brief as a folio reference for the very first time.

Please please please someone pay me to draw slugs. Thanks.

Ode to Dutch girls who are always whizzing by me on their bikes with their hair tucked so perfectly into their scarves

Hi Bluesky do you like gardening content? Because I’ve just started seeds for the year

I'm working late tonight drawing a lot of pigeons. It takes me about 30 minutes to draw two small pigeons, and they are probably less than 1.5cm wide on the cover of this book. I have been drawing pigeons for at least 6 hours. The one I called "foot pigeon" is no longer placed near a foot. AMA

Have you ever spent so ridiculously drawing something that you end up overworking it and making it look like AI 😭 fuck

haha here's another one. I don't think this style really works for me but it's kinda fun. I do like my wobbly serif lettering though

About two years ago I started doing some exploration of a kids book style and I just never got around to posting it anywhere. So here you go blue place, you can have it.

Hi, Blue Place! This month marks 10 years since quitting my advertising job so I could try and be an illustrator. So for my first post, here is one of the first illos I created as someone trying to be a ~serious illustrator~ and clearly I was just discovering textures
