For the first part of this post click here. After working out a basic, almost abstract, composition for the passengers and laying that on top of the station rough, it was time to work on each character individually. I had the intention of re-using characters from previous paintings and also introducing some that would then feature in their own personal painting.

So tonight is the nineteenth Draw North West creative meetup! If you haven't been to one of these already (and you're even vaguely in the area) you should definitely come along. Held in the brilliant Kosmonaut bar in Manchester's Northern Quarter at 7:30, Draw North West attracts crowds of creatives from all walks to drink, draw and talk shop. There's never a lack of chats about projects, collabs, films, exhibitions, music or *cough* Steve Buscemi.

The past two weeks I have been working on the centrepiece to an upcoming exhibition of mine. In fact I'm still working on the painting, however I'm now sufficiently far enough into the painting process to show you how I arrived at the initial idea for 'A Quarter Past One On Platform Ten'. First off - I knew I wanted to do a BIG painting but what should be the subject?

For the first part of this post click here , and for the second part click here. Finally I was up and running with my brushes (not literally, although I do have wheels on my studio chair so the option is there if needed). Under-paintings and then some. As is my wont, I began with an under-painting. However, just to be difficult, I began with payne's grey for the station and engine and then moved onto sepia for the characters.

Just a collection of some of the quick character sketches, a revived drawing and my new profile avatar from recent weeks. September is for sketching. It's fantastic to get back into the swing of character design by just drawing the first characters that pop into your head. I haven't used any reference for these, so I thank my years of life drawing classes and people-watching for being able to coax out a reasonable degree of character movement and posture!

Exciting news, guys! I've been selected as one of the finalists in the 15 for 15 award for self-employed businesses. I wrote from the heart about the dizzying heights and the real struggles of working as a lone-wolf freelance illustrator, and I'm absolutely chuffed to have been chosen. I find that often freelancers and self-employed people are overlooked in business.

I'm here in NY at my beautiful apartment and I have just found this old photo of Sonny, Stella and I in Paris. It instantly bought back some really happy memories and made me think about how lucky I am to be able to travel the world and fuel my passion for fashion. I have seen some amazing shows this week and there is so much more to come. My shopping list is bulging already and I still have London, Paris and Milan to come!
