@guzzlemag process inside the illo
1 : Ideas are pretty loose when I start into it with Procreate, I know what feeling I’m trying to achieve and I just draw and erase until I get close to it! I work with tonal drawings to begin, a lesson taught during my course with @lauralannes last year, it really works for me. This is what I sent over to editor @janegleeson_ for approval!
2 : Once Jane gave the go-ahead, I printed my sketch and used a lightbox to paint each separate element in black gouache. I’d love to be able to work solely with paint, but this process of hand-done and digital is much quicker and more appropriate sometimes. I should have gotten some content of me painting, next time (maybe).
3 : Then I assemble in photoshop, this is the quick bit as I figured everything out in the tonal drawings. It’s just a bunch of layers and masks and I clean up and make some finishing touches. This is just another colour scheme that we considered earlier, but so glad it went in the direction it did in the final.

Each layer of each frame drawn by hand, totally worth it
Designed and tested first digitally, then rendered in pencil, here are some parts of the making.

Sketches of some of the pieces shown as part of the exhibition A Different Kettle Of Fish by @fortgallery_ a few weeks ago 🐠
So many incredible craftspeople in this exhibition, it was really interesting to be sketching these sculptural works, considering texture, form and what my drawings could do that could be missed in a photo, leaning into the scratchy, rough and uneven to try to show the character.
Incredible curation by @deemorgan_ , thank you for asking me to be a part of it!
Earlier this year @jeanpaulgaultier took over the @belmond Andean Explorer to take special guests across Peru to promote their Scandal Intense fragrance.
I worked with @andyhillmanstudio to produce the graphic elements and illustrations, including logo design, stickers, a map brochure, menus, postcards, tickets and more.
Here’s a few of the things we produced, just wish I’d gotten to go on the trip too! 🚂
