Not for the faint-hearted! An absolute dream of a commission for @bbchistorymagazineart  exploring Spectral Beasts and Hounds from Hell (aka Britain’s legendary ghost dogs) like the fire-eyed Black Shuck, the chained Whitby hound, the Hounds of Dartmoor, and the eerie Barghest of Yorkshire.

I used a limited palette and layered riso-textures to build colour and texture. 🌕✨

Big thanks to ADs @rachiereu and @susannefrankbristol for the brilliant commission!

Highlights from Day 1 of my workshop with @lego and @itsnicethat was an absolute blast- using LEGO pieces to create unique relief prints, tapping into the calming nature of play and creativity. Met so many lovely people who brought such amazing energy and creativity to the sessions. 🙌

Big thanks to my incredible fellow hosts @simon.hamlyn, @owaller, @kateducker, and the wonderful assistants who have kept everything running so smoothly—top-tier legends! 💫 Grateful to the gang at @itsnicethat for trusting me to design, plan, and host this workshop

Can’t wait for the rest of the week! 🎨✨

🌟 Exciting News! 🌟 I’m thrilled to share with you all my illustrated and animated trailer I’ve been working on for the National Theatre’s upcoming production of Roald Dahl’s ‘The Witches.’ 🧙‍♀️✨

This project has been an incredible experience and an exciting learning curve, especially diving into animation again; mastering Adobe After Effects and character rigging in Duik. 🎥💡 The creative journey has been super rewarding, and I can’t wait to unveil the final result!

The Witches is a rip-roaring musical version of @roald_dahl’s timeless tale, filled with wit, daring and heart.

With book and lyrics by Olivier Award-winner Lucy Kirkwood, music and lyrics by Tony Award-nominee Dave Malloy, and directed by Lyndsey Turner.

The Witches will be playing in the Olivier Theatre at National Theatre from 7th November

✨ Get ready to be spellbound by the magic of ‘The Witches’! 🔮🌙
