This project was for Wayne Harris. We were to create a horror book cover illustration that showed a human morphing into another animal. I am really afraid of hammerhead sharks so this would be a total nightmare for me!

The Boat project.

Our class was given a project by Barry Dean to compose an illustration with narrative based on a boat.

The mediums I used were watercolour and pencil on paper. Digitally altered in photoshop by Barry Dean.

At the moment i am working on creating an EP cover for the artist Robert Portman. This is a work in progress as there are a lot of little touch ups still to do. This is the first time i have used water colour in a loose way. I enjoyed letting the medium do its own thing but I think I am still too controlling. For this piece I was inspired by the australian artist Cherry Hood.

The creative cycle.

Back in 2009 our class was given a project to create a lamp shade out of paper that reflects a suburb of our choice. Seeing as i travel reguraly to TAFE in Newtown, i choose Newtown as my suburb. My aim was to reflect the wacky town houses i pass in my walk to collage.

This was a project set by Barry Dean, to create an illustration of 'Old Mother Hubid' with a twist.

Mysteries of Harris Burdick

This illustration was a project based on the sentence 'No matter how hard he tried, his feet couldn't touch the ground.' We had to study the style of Chris Van Allsburg's book The Mysteries of Harris Burdick and create a missing illustration. I was inspired by late night dog walkers who pass my house in the summer evenings.

This illustration came from a surrealism exercise. Our task was to create a surrealistic image using the theme of "eggs". We had to compose the composition out of only geometric shapes and then create an atmosphere. The medium I used was coloured pencil.

This was a medieval cart exercise set for us in 2009. Basically we had to create a medievalscene which included a cart, horse, cart driver and environment. I created this illustration using watercolour.

one of our latest typography assignment was to make a text out of found objects. I made mine out of colour pencils.
