A Recipe For . . .


For our final year at university we are fundraising for our end of year show which will be held in London, and to do this we are making a funky little magazine called A Recipe For . . .  in which lots of amazing illustrators on my course will be creating a recipe. We are hoping to sell lots of copies and raise lots of money! I have tied mine into the nautical nonsense brief (see below) as I can't get octopi out of my head. Here is my recipe . . . 

Nautical Nonsense



This is some work I have made for the This Is... competition which (if chosen) will be exhibited at Sixty Million Postcards in Bournemouth. The theme this month is Nautical Nonsense so for this I have been looking at seaside pop art, the bright colours of arcade games, candy floss, lolly pops, ice creams and flashing lights all mixed in with the traditional seaside stuff! The whole image is the landscape one, but as it has to be submitted portrait I've split it in two and made two illustrations!
