Creatures of fur and feather
There is so much to love about furry, fluffy and featured creatures.
I could live in a zoo
If I had my way. I love observing animals and creatures, and drawing them is a real pleasure for me. These commissions are making their ways onto walls, websites and placemats as we speak!
A chubby sparrow set up to adorn a placemat, this bird series was originally created for a local nursery, where illustrations of small (mostly australian) birds where placed amongst the plant life.
I started drawing dogs some time back and loved capturing their character with pencil. This commission for a puppy training business saw me capture a multitude of different canines-with-character.
Who doesn't love a border collie? Smart and sassy, I have roamed many a paddock in my life with one by my side.
This parrot was a part of an earlier mentioned series, and I included some background layers to offer depth and context.
We all love our native kookaburras and kingfishers, such regal creatures. They remind me of camping by the murray in my youth.
Magpie goose is such an exotic bird. I've captured it as near invisible as some ways it almost is.
Ellen is a fantastically talented illustrator / designer and working with her was a complete joy! She invested time upfront to understand my needs, provided early mock ups to help me explore, then define, my vision, and gave me many opportunities to review and provide feedback. I was very impressed by her modern use of a live web platform for presenting / reviewing work in progress’.

I started off this commission with this fella, who as you can see isn’t shy.
This image is all about the human-dog connection....
