Book Progress 2

People I remember, Places I Don't

Over the past few weeks, i ve been working on a book for an exhibition at KALEID gallery in london. The exhibition is a showcase of work by bookmaker and publisher Jonathan Ward and he invited a few guest artists to create a piece to show along side his work. The theme was child hood memories. i decided to draw the images for the book in a medium that i was most familiar with in my childhood (coloured crayons). Here is double page spread from the book.

3d project

At the beginning of this year I worked on a project where my drawings have been translated into 3d objects. These characters where sculpted from my drawings by the very talented Alex Simpson. These characters are just one element of the project, so there is more to come.

We plan to work with a rising musical artist called Babe to make a series of 5 short films. Read more about the project here and we are grateful for any contributions.

Thank you.

Toronto Comic Arts Festival

The book I have been working on for Nobrow press is going to be released at the Torornto Comic Arts Festival. Here is are the details from the NB HQ. Nobrow is proud to announce our attendance at TCAF 2011 from Saturday May 7th, 9am-5pm to Sunday May 8th, 11am-5pm. As well as bringing several ultra-recent titles from our catalogue, TCAF will also be the official launch of Rob Hunter’s hauntingly beautiful new comic The New Ghost (pictured Above).

The Toronto Comic Arts Festival exists to promote the breadth and diversity of comics, and what is considered comics, as legitimate medium of literary and artistic worth. We seek to promote the creators of these works in their broad and diverse voices, for the betterment of the medium of comics and to reach as wide an audience as possible for them.

The first Toronto Comic Arts Festival (“TCAF”) was held on the weekend of March 29th 2003. It was the natural progression of years of disparate book signings, author appearances and miscellaneous events put together by a group of volunteers interested in promoting the literary and artistic merits of comic books and graphic novels. Approximately 600 members of the public attended the first festival, with 25 staff and approximately 70 creators in attendance.
