Sketch of the Perseus and Andromeda fountain at Witley Court

Some sketches produced at Witley Court.

Initial Witley Court Drawings

These are my first initial drawings for my Final Major Project. After a tutorial I am going to try to make my frawings less detailed and more free. After all the drawings are supposed to be about Witley Court not of it.

Final Major Project =]

The Final Major Project is finally upon us at Hereford College of Arts.
After a very positive meeting today I'm feeling very excited about getting started :)

My propsal for the project is as follows:

The aim of this project is to produce a completed history/imformation book surrounding the subject of Witley Court in Worcestershire. The book will be similar to the structure of the Spiderwick Chronicles source book, for example stidies will be made of the lants that grow in the grounds, details of the architecture will be drawn upon.
This will inculde in depth research into the history of the estate and the surroundings, e.g owners of the house, events. I plan to use a variety of media within the project including etching.

So thats a outline of my proposal and I cant wait to get started :)

Below is a photo taken by myself of the burnt out ruined mansion which for me holds so much beauty.

A very Amazing Artist =]

I have been following the work of Zindy Zone for quite some time and I just had to put her on my blog as everytime I see a piece of her I am amazed.

Her works varies from protraits to fantasy work.

She is a very big imspiration to me and an awe insiring artist.

New Start

I am the first to admit this blog has been rather neglected of late. I myself find it much easier to talk about my work in person rather than writing it down in a post, but new projects are arriving and new opportunities are knocking at my door so I am breathing new life into my blog, it will no longer be abandoned.
On a good note my Illustrator friend Glenn James has asked me to assist him and his partner in the running of the first ever Worcester Gothic and Horror Festival. I have been given the task of running and organizing a Gothic Art Exhibition which I am extremely excited about.
Watch this space now for more frequent posts, promise.
