Serco Prize entry: ‘Shoreditch Church and Broadgate Tower from Hoxton Station’
This is my take on ‘Secret London’, the theme for this year’s Serco Prize for Illustration, jointly organised by the AOI and Transport for London. Happily my submission is one of 50 entrants to be shortlisted for the prize!
All shortlisted entries are to be exhibited at the London Transport Museum this November and December when the winners are announced. More info about the competition and a full list of shortlisted entrants can be found here.
May the best illustrator win!

Illustration Friday - “Towers of London”
My submission for this week’s Illustration Friday topic “Heights” is this new sketch for a poster idea, a comparative depiction of the tallest buildings (as of April 2012!) in London with a few well-known buildings included for good measure.
How many familiar buildings do you recognise?

I currently have a display of drawings in the downstairs lounge at FLATPLANET®, 39 Great Marlborough Street, London W1F 7JG.
Each drawing is a depiction of real life characters I observed in the surrounding streets of Soho and all are available for purchase.
I also designed the flyer for Lewis Barfoot’s poetry and performance event which takes place every first Thursday of the month - more details here.

This is ‘Whitechapel Road’, a new piece completed today.
This is the first in a new series of character portraits of people that I encountered nearby to stations along the East London Line during a walkabout one sunny day last month.
New work in this series to follow in the coming months!

My ‘Deptford Wives’ exhibition at Deli X in Deptford High Street is entering its final weeks! The eighteen portraits from the series, some on public display for the first time, shall remain until Sunday 12th February.
Limited edition specially-designed posters (illustrated above - £25) and the remaining stock of my tie-in ‘DW’ shopping bags (£5) are available for purchase.
The deli is a stone’s throw from the local rail station, and I heartily recommend the almond croissants!
Deli X, 156 Deptford High Street, London SE8 3PQ.

Regular followers will be familiar with my ‘Deptford Wives’ project, completed earlier this year, which is a series of portraits of women originally photographed in the eponymous neighbourhood of south-east London on market day.
From the 4th January until the 12th February I shall be exhibiting the full set as framed fine art prints at Deli X, a recently-opened and smart delicatessen-cum-cafe on Deptford High Street.
Each piece of artwork shall be available for sale (prices TBC) as well as related merchandise including a newly-designed poster and my silk screen cotton bags which have proved to be reasonably popular locally!
Follow the link at the left of this page to scroll through the full series of portraits.
More news soon!
**UPDATE 30/12/11**
This post has been edited to include the amended opening date.
