Paper Cub



Hello there, hello there!
Ooops, it's been a bit of a while since I last updated, and for that; I really must apologize.
BUT I do have some news! Roll up, roll up and prepare to be wowed and astounded, fair citizens! I have joined forces with some incredibly talented illustrators and writers for an online magazine called: 'PAPER CUB!!!!' Just not in capitals or with the ridiculous amount of exclamation marks. It's an online magazine for children of ALL ages, and will have regular content uploaded, inclusing illustrated stories, poems, games, comics and everything in between. But don't listen to me go on about it, it's probably best if you go check it out!

The piece above is the illustration I did for the ever talented Robin Boyden's poem '(Too Much) Space', and it was a really great fun brief, hopefully the first of many for this wonderful magazine. I will also hopefully be writing my own stuff for the magazine in the future too, so keep those eyes peeled! It also involves the work of the incredible Laura Anderson, who is as talented as they come, and twice as lovely. So please be sure to check it out! Thanks very much to both Robin and Laura for getting me involved!

In other news, I am working incredibly hard at the moment, and STILL can't show too much, so I was thinking, for the sake of just keeping this blog updated, that I may try and start a 'Doodle a Day' kind of thing...and try my utmost HARDEST to keep up with it. Y'know; draw whatever was on my mind that day. This could get weird. Please check back soon for more, and as always: thanks for stopping by!

The Last Flight of Claudia.




Aaaaaand here's a few more concept pieces of Claudia strutting her stuff. Looking back at them, there are a few things I would like to change (such as her FACE, haha, but seriously...i would draw it differently now) but there are still elements I like and I am still very fond of the idea. I wouldn't mind having a house like that deep in some haunted woods, but then...I fear people may talk. But yes, indeed, time will tell.

In other news, I have had some serious problems with my email as of late, and have frankly become slightly tired with constantly having to fix the various problems it seems to enjoy throwing my way, so I've decided to move over to gmail! Yup, that's right; I have a new email address:

jamieillustration@gmail.com

That's me!
