Acrylic/mixed media paintings from many years ago. Various photographers gave me permission to use their costume photos for reference material. Anyone who wants to know where the source photos are from can ask, I think I have all the links stored.

Going to post some old art to help flesh this place out a little. More new stuff to come once completed/out of NDA.

4 vector portraits for a university research awards event. Client had a very specific style I had to use, based off an earlier portrait they'd had done. Why vector? Because the sizes for printing varied from huuuge to tiny. Yay, Illustrator & Wacom.

Rather random job for a tech company, paintings of some tech entrepreneurs they were working with. Well, until one of them got dragged off to court in the US, but that's another story...

Done with Photoshop, refs from public domain paintings and licenses they had. Ended up doing 5 in all.

Made some govt logos for a tiny island territory in the Caribbean (why is that so difficult to spell?). They ended up going with the two with the speech bubble, one of them for print, the other for on-screen uses.

Illustrations (digital ink pen style, done in Photoshop) for a book on RW Emerson. Ended up with 12 in all, one of each month of the year.

Cat painting for Seth (present for his wife). Her bitey cat, Hester. Personally I think Hester is rather wonderful and the bitey-ness is a feature, not a bug.

Acrylic and watercolour pencil on paper. A5-ish.

Adding some arty content to hold space until I get my butt into gear. Also... rather a lot of NDAs these days. Woe.
