Poems What Granny Wrote
As Part of one of our modules we were approached by a lady who writes poetry to illustrate 20 of her poems which would be produced into a book as a present for her grandchildren. I produced ideas for a number of the poems but it was my idea for "The Tramp" succeeded in being chosen for the book.
The idea for the ilustration I produced came from a drawing I had produced before while on a tran journey. The figure of the man seemed to fit the poem perfectly, all that was left to do was to add a bt of background. The illtration was produced in biro and watered down ink, which I feel gives the right atmosphere for the poem.
Finished ink Floyd Commission
Pink Floyd Commission
In August 2010 I shared a stall at The Worcester Riverside Artists Market and was lucky enough to have quite a bit of interest shown in my work.
I was approached by a man who was extrememly interested in my Pink Floyd portrait and in December I was contacted by him and asked to produce a Pink Floyd portrait for him as a present for his brothers birthday.
