London by Day and Night - new illustration

It is rather late to be talking about it but I went to Pick Me Up Contemporary Art fair at Somerset house in March. The works there were so inspirational and I felt so excited! I found one illustrator/printmaker I really liked the work of. His name is Jon McNaught. ( his work the middle picture.) It is so graphical yet still has very nice illustrative feel to it. So I was inspired by him and wanted to do a new work on London.  

Here it is my new work. London by day and night. ( Top picture.) Could have added more people, or neon scene but do you get the feel?

3月にサマーセット・ハウスのグラフィック／イラスト展で、ジョン・マクナウトというイラストレーター＆プリントメーカーの人の作品に出会いました。（写真：真ん中と３番目）デザインされつつもイラストの温かみを含んだ作品がとても素敵で、その人に影響され、今回はロンドンの絵を描いてみました。 ロンドンの昼の顔と夜の顔を表したんだけど、もうちょっと夜景と朝のラッシュの風景とかも含めば良かったのかなぁ？

イギリスは今週気温が27℃まで上がってとても暑いです！外で草刈り機の音とかして、地元が懐かしくなってる今日この頃です。

Bingley the cat story book finished!

 

 

Final two illustrations for Maree was submitted. I was really glad to hear that she really loved the illustrations and they gave her an inspiration to finish the book. I really enjoyed working with her too.
Thank you for the opportunity and I really enjoyed B&W illustrations. Now all the works are uploaded on my website, so lease have a look.

友人の知り合いが物語を書くということで紹介してもらい、白黒の挿し絵と、カバーの仕事をさせてもらいました。前回のポストと合わせて５枚の挿し絵とカバーのお仕事でした。とにかく主人公のビングリーという猫がかわいいのです。久々に白黒の仕事で少し勉強になりました。ウェブサイトにも残りの挿し絵、UPしましたのでどうかご覧ください。

New B&W book Illustration

I have been working on a beautiful story written by Maree Chapman-Wallis. I am close to finishing book illustration for her and it has been a good experience to work on B&W inserts. I have not done too many of tonal work since university so it made me think about the tones a lot.


The story involves her cat and her memories from Australia and her friends. Her cat, Bingley is just so cute.

Romanian city, Sibiu print available on Etsy!

I have added a new item on my shop on Etsy.
The print of this original illustration is on sale right now so please have a peek!
I went to visit my friends town in Romania called Sibiu this year and found the buildings and housed incredibly cute! They had window in the roof which made them look like they had a face on each house. So I intentionally exaggerated the face! I really enjoyed painting the details in this work.

Etsyの私のショップに新しい作品を載せました。
今年ルーマニアの友人の住んでいるシビウという街を訪れて　インスピレーションをもらって描いた作品です。街のほとんどの建物の屋根に窓がついていて、それが目のようで、家に顔があるみたいな、とても可愛らしい街でした。どうぞショップにてご覧ください。

After the Teddington Art Fair in October, I had my stall out in Spitalfields Art Market from 17th - 20th November (Thur-Sun)Last week.
As always, it was really nice to get the first hand feedback and meeting new people. I even met and spoke with some people on holiday from different countries just there for the weekend!
Thank you for those who came and showed interest and those who bought something there. 
I also have learned a lot from exhibitors who were there. Very nice works by them and great people:-)

11月17日(木)〜20日(日)にかけて、ロンドン市内リバプールストリート駅近くのスピタルフィールズマーケットにて展示＆販売をしました。写真はそのときのものです。
その場にいるからこそ聞ける、たくさんの人たちからの作品への感想、いつも大切にしていきたいと思います。これからもたくさんの人に作品が見てもらえるよう頑張ります！
