My postcards created for the International Postcard Show at the Surface Gallery in Nottingham. I used blue, white and gold ink and various paper ephemera on the postcard base, the building drawings are acrylic ink on kraft brown paper.

I’ve tried to show how the gold ink catches the light in the last two images.

The opening night for the show is 12th January and is on until 10th February.

New Artwork- Flamingos

Acrylic ink and pigment ink pen on canvas board, 10×15 cm

Flamingos seem to be everywhere at the moment, I’ve seen so many flamingo patterned things recently so I wanted to create something inspired by them.

In the second image I tried to show the shine of the gold ink on their beaks.

Fan Art- Undertale Napstablook

napstablook fan art

 

I’ve wanted to create some Undertale fan art for a while but only just got round to it. It’s hard to pick favourite characters but I love Napstablook and Toriel- I’m planning on creating a piece with Toriel soon.

This piece is acrylic ink, back pigment ink pen and white gel pen on paper. Napstablook himself was drawn and inked on tracing paper, cut out and stuck to the ink background. I thought the tracing paper would give a nice translucent effect, him being a ghost and all.
