Self Portrait 2014

In November last year I did an illustration for the Comic Artist Self Portraits blog. The blog is well worth having a browse though.

So far this year I can confirm tables at the following events:

• True Believers Comic Festival - 7th February 2015
• Midlands MCM Comic Con - 14th February 2015
• ICE Birmingham - 5th September 2015

More events TBC (you should be able to find an up to date list on the blog sidebar)

Leamington Zine #5

I drew a small autobio comic for Leamington Zine about getting a haircut. The theme this time was new beginnings. LZ stock listings and online files to past zines can be found on their Facebook page.

Portrait 2013

I had to get new glasses this week, so I drew a new self portrait for online avatars. They're more complicated to colour than my old frames.

I can also announce that Inspired Comics will have a table at the Bristol Comic and Zine Fair in October!

Self-portrait

This is the complete self-portrait I drew for the group show at Orbital Comics. I wanted to wait until the event had finished before posting it online in full. I try my best to keep Best Day Ever in stock at Orbital Comics and I recently posted copies of Science Fiction Octuple Feature to them.

If you're in and around London while Comica Festival is happening remember there is a Ink+Paper launch party this Friday and Comiket on Saturday looks excellent. I wont be able to go to either events this year but I will be at Thought Bubble with Inspired Comics in a couple of weeks time.

Best Day Ever & Jumping The Shark

I launched a new site to host two short stories together because previously it wasn't clear how to navigate the old webcomic site. I have also drawn extra character profiles and put extras dotted about the site.

I had fun at the Orbital Comics Self-portrait Show Private View last weekend. I forgot to take photos but Sarah McIntyre did a great blog post full of photos if you're interested. The portraits will be up until 15th October 2011.

Ink + Paper and Orbital Portriat Exhibition

 

This is a small preview panel from my Ink + Paper anthology/magazine submission. I really wanted to try something new and different to the colouring I have done before. I think it worked really well with the mood of the comic. The full story will be printed and published some time in the autumn. 

I've also submitted something for the Orbital Comics Self-Portrait Show in London from 19th September till 15th October. Check the website link for the list of comics creators involved.

Webcomics return

In my 1st year of university I decided to start creating webcomics because a lot of my modules could not be responded to by creating a comic and it was a good way to get feed back from others who create comics. I've really enjoyed posting several different styles and story telling techniques. I had taken a break to finish my Final Major Project but I now have a new story to post over about 6 weeks. Instant Comics can be found online here.

The story is about a sleep walking experience I had very recently. I don't think I have sleep walked before and I was surprised how much of the dream I remembered so I decided I wanted to try telling the account in the form of a comic. You can find the start of Moth Eyes: A True Story here.
