Recently arrived back from a lovely long visit to France where I was out and about on my bike drawing châteaux here and there and the odd old farm house, stopping regularly at bars and cafes soaking up the local ambience… and wine!

Stand by your ovens! I have just finished a series of packaging for foodie gurus, David & Oliver who have devised a range of truly scrumptious sauces, stocks and soups called Wild About Britain. I was asked to devise characters for the packs, illustrations and an animation for the website. Delicious Wild About Britain products can be found in Waitrose and other good stores near you! Enjoy!
Such moments can be the inspiration for great works of art…..

Another job but this one was different, very different. it involved cake. Lots of it. Piled up in beautiful irresistible creations. Gorgeous three dimensional edible sculptures complete with exquisite surface design. Finished of with a large dose of sophisticated wit and much licking of lips.
My brief: to create a brand identity from logo through to stationery for a cake company-Yum.
I was going to accept this commission. I did. Now I’m on a diet.
