Zombie kidz

These are the initial illustrations for the zombie kidz series, which are a personal project of mine. These started out as doodles, a way to pass the time on boring train journeys, but slowly their taking on a life of their own. They have become a series of hand made plush toys and paper toys. And to add to their misfortune they are named after people with unusual deaths. Life’s not fair now is it?

As time goes on I’m slowly adding to my collection of zombie characters, so keep a look out. » view work

Image of a lost soul

illustration of trees

The Image of a lost soul is a short moralistic tale by turn of the century writer Saki, otherwise known as Hector Hugh Munro.

The aim of the brief was to create six illustrations following the events in Saki’s tale. For this particular project influences of victorian keep sake imagery, art nouveau and even manga were drawn upon.

A little random note. If you look carefully in the last three images you’ll notice a butterfly caught in a web. Seems kind of fitting, considering how sad the tale becomes towards the end.
