Constellations set

I've finished my set of constellations, now I just need to design the back to my postcards and I can finally get them printed. I'm also considering some sort of giveaway soon. So keep your eyes and ear peeled for a chance to get your mitts on some freebies.

Moon baby

So, Hello all!
Firstly, I apologise for the radio silence for what seems to be quite a long time... I'm currently working two jobs, & then trying to illustrate on top of that. I spend most of my time feeling tired or grumpy but it really makes me realise just how much I want to turn my art into a career. I'm exploring some other avenues after speaking with some very talented artists who have been so incredibly helpful to me. I love that even well known and busy artists as so willing to help out newbies such as myself. The best way to learn is to ask people who have been in your position and people who have been in your position know just how tough it is.
I really respect anyone who has created a career out of their art, a career enough to live on in this business is such a fantastic feat. I hope to be one of you people.

Anyway, I'm currently working on something so I'd thought I'd show you all. Tell me what you think? I'm not too sure why, but in my half asleep - not quite on this planet - stupor I decided that it should be called "Moon baby" and saved it as such.

Sneak peek!

Sneak peek at my current work in progress the constellation Aries.

The bitten mouth

I'm currently working on two illustrations to be used as magazine covers for a friend. The first one I have completed is for "The bitten mouth" but the theme of the illustration also work with the secondary title "DeForest". Which title do you prefer? Personally I'm swayed towards DeForest, it just sounds enchanting to me. Anyway here you go.
The illustration is also available as a print in my Society6!

Volans

Another in the constellation series! Volans or "flying fish".

I'm unsure about the colour palette really... oh! and here's a sneak peak at something i'm working on.

Sneak Peak.

My current work in progress... I have noticed that my favourite and (in my opinion) best executed illustrations happen when I'm avoiding doing something else that is probably more important. Is this the case for other artists and creatives? I usually get a craving to draw and it just seems to happen. I'm not the sort of person to endlessly rehearse a drawing. I'm a very fast drawer and with the majority of my ink drawings I don't sketch it out first I just dive straight in with indian ink.
... anyway!
