 This first poster (above) was a promotional poster for work. Since I work in a stationery shop, our craft section was unheard of, so I was asked to produce a full size poster to advertise our new collections.

This poster again, was a promotional project I was given to do by work. Tim Holtz's collections have some of the world's best die cuts, and are crucial sellers in our craft section. His grunge style suits my style perfectly so I used it to full effect on this special offer advertisement.

Voldemort.

This is a digital painting of the Harry Potter villain Voldemort. As one of my favourite childhood characters, I thought I'd draw him, in my own style. So, I sketched him out in pencil in my logbook, and scanned him in. Through using my Graphics Tablet, I was able to add shadowing and depth to my grayscale canvas. It took 5 hours to complete, and as my first proper attempt at using this digital painting technique, I'm quite happy with the outcome. Time well spent.
