My illustration work is realized in a series of drawn characters. Each one with their own quirks and attitudes. Each one illustrating different aspects of my own character and observations of others. They seek to be universal - capturing aspects of the everyman or woman. They depict human nature abstracted from the specific of “that’s you and that’s me’, and re-presented with a generic relevance to us all.
Drawing always from my head the possibilities are endless and, with each new day, the peramaters always changing.
I draw exactly what I want and I love it. Not what anyone wants me to draw, not what looks right by any one else’s standards other than my own - illustration is fabulous because you make up your own rules.
The balance that must be struck is that of integrity, to really mean, from your heart, what you draw. Not word for word what your character is saying, but with each stroke of the pen to do so with confidence. If you are asking people to look at your work in an exhibition the least you can be is definite.
What I love about illustration is that although a character starts by being the vehicle for ones thoughts, they quickly assume an independence, and actually ‘become’.
When they begin to flow it is a race to keep up. The images fly onto the page. They are a pleasure to articulate as they allow me to ‘get it all out’ within the safety of the drawn page. Does that make me a passive aggressive? I hope not.
