So we've been working on 'box doodles' at college this week- basically you get a box of you choice and then transform it into something else! My box is a night nurse box and below it is a sneak peak at me starting work on it.

From the initial insect sketches (in the previous post) I decided to take forward the caterpillar designs- the collective noun for caterpillars is an army of caterpillars and I decided that they were going to be wearing fancy dress so here is a first glimpse into my sketchbook at my 'army of fancy dress caterpillars'!

Over the summer we were given a 'little book of texts' as a starting point for some illustration work. One of the pages was a list of collective nouns for different insects- here are my initial sketchbook pages of drawings.

This was an illustration that I did to accompany a piece of writing called 'paying the bill' which was one of our module tasks at college over the last few weeks. It was one of my first proper attempts at drawing people and I'm pretty pleased with how it has turned out. I tend to avoid drawing people if I can help it but this made me have a go at it and I think that it was long overdue!

This is the wedding present that I made for my sister-in-law's wedding this summer. It was hand cut from paper and then spray painted red to finish.

This was an illustration that I produced as part of a one day workshop that we did at college. It was an illustration to go with a newspaper article about waiters in restaurants and how they are treated and whether they get fed whilst they are at work or not.
