The Master and Margarita: Final Images

These are some my final images from my project on The Master and Margarita. The images represent my own personal take on the novel, rather than attempting to show the narrative in a direct way. This probably won't be my last post featuring work from that project as I've got a lot of it on the 'to scan' pile.

Images drawn using Concentrated inks on watercolour paper, scanned and assembled in Photoshop.

Political Mutation and Evolution: Artists Book Project

This was an elective project in the first year of Illustration. We were given the theme of mutation and I chose to look at social and political change as a more focused subject.

The text I used for the book was created using words taken from an essay on the Civil Rights Movement, which I rearranged to give a new meaning. These were accompanied by mark making images that were meant to give an abstract representation of the text. The book form itself took inspiration from the terms convergent/parallel evolution and was designed so it was only possible to view one half of the book at once.

The finished book (I tried to give an idea of the book and how it works so I hope it makes sense):





































Some sample pages from the book:

College Post 8: Mixed-Media Personal Work

This is the last of the work that I did while at Leeds College of Art (unless some more turns up somwhere), all personal work. The first two images were created when experimenting with layering up backgrounds and illustrating over the top. The first was on the sole of a shoe and the second on a t-shirt.


















































This image was created in response to a piece of photojournalism about the conflict in Georgia, the newspaper in the image is in the shape of the country.

















The final image is an illustration of the musician Devendra Banhart, made out of Redbush tea.
