I have only just realised I never posted this finished painting on the blog. Quick Getaway Watercolour / Gouache 24 x 31cm This painting was partly inspired by the moonlit paintings of Atkinson Grimshaw and with any good night-time scene you have to have the moon silhouetting the branches of a gnarled tree in winter - it's the law. The pub which the sly fox is running away from is base on the Wagon & Horses at Beckhampton which is about 7miles from where I live.

Hi everyone! I'm totally excited to announce that Tesco Magazine's January issue is now out and features my illustrations throughout their Big Health Pick & Mix section! Check them out on pages 7-21. I have to say I made more than one excuse to 'need' to go to Tesco to check if the issue had hit the shops (I just had to have that butternut squash, okay?).

A quick shot of what I'm working on at the moment. I'm keeping the sepia under-painting light so as not to overpower the shadows as I feel this subject matter should be treated with a lighter touch than normal.

As promised here is the finished artwork of 'The Card Game'. The Card Game Watercolour / Gouache 24 x 31cm Recently I've been trying to separate the foreground, middleground and background into three tonal values, light, mid-tone and dark. It's proved to be very useful, however when it comes to interior scenes the three stages can become very muddled.

I've been working on a sepia under-painting today. This one will have lots of warm yellows, oranges and browns in it so sepia should emerge through the glazes of watercolour very nicely indeed.
