ILLUSTRATION

My illustration practice is work that I make at the request of an third party or in the interests of selling to a third party via trade fairs or direct commission. This work represents that of my Talking Pictures business (see also comics). Samples listed are sections from storyboards for short or feature-length films, some rendered as animatics. Other examples are editorial illustration and/or advertising work..

Notes on Celtic Work

the meaning of the Celtic designs, symbols, strange creatures, structures go well beyond simple, elaborate design. In my view, they are both unearthly and magical. Important in the symbolic repertoire is the ever-present image of the circle. The circle has both a symbolic importance (it is the shape of the moon, the sun and the planet we inhabit) and a mathematical/geometric structure which can be endlessly explored creatively. I have no doubt that the Celts fell in love with the properties of the circle and allowed this to become their expression of their love/awe for the Earth, its creatures, its mysteries and its power.
