A watercolour painting depicting a moment in Robert Holdstock’s Mythago Wood story. The two characters finally meet each other while the looming beast, the Urscumug looks upon the men it once knew. The forest is dark and grittty, with ominous trees encroaching and looming upon the characters and all is lit by a full moon.

A watercolour painting I made during a read of Robert Holdstocks’s Mythago Wood last year. I highly recommend this book!✨

The Old Oak

Thank you!

A digital illustration in the style of old theatre stage designs and illustrations and artists of the past like Ivan Bilibin. I created this to be a children’s blanket design. The idea that these forest creatures gathering in the night tell stories to one another and parents/guardians along with their little ones could come up with these stories before bed time. What does the giant hollow oak tell of his day to the forest knight or does the giant frog croak to his friend the pompous crow? Who knows! You decide!

✨Magical Forest Meeting✨

I created this piece many moons ago for a blanket/throw competition. I never won but still decided to make a couple blankets for my loved ones.

A pencil drawing of a sleeping gnome resting his little pie-filled self during a late afternoon at his favourite tree spot. He rests with his hatted head perched against an old and rotted stump, his beard trailing down the ground as sunlight dazzles through branch and leaf, warming his big nose. Birds are chirping. It’s a good day.

Textures of the bark of a very old and massive black poplar.

Mesmerizing textures of the bark of a massive black poplar I saw yesterday.

Trees are pretty much the best thing.

Hey #portfolioday ! Amazingly, I’ve got two new personal paintings for this round!

A pencil drawing, nicely framed in a rich green frame and photographed outside in front of a cherry tree in full spring-bloom. The drawing itself depicts a scene of a house and its garden lit by moonlight. The house is in typical style of traditional Serbian homes from the Vojvodina region. A small dog barks up into the dark sky, probably at nothing but only he would know for sure.

A dragon swoops over a blasted landscape, its rider prepares to shoot an arrow from the dragons back.

Two women stand ready to fight in a mysterious combined landscape of ruins and alien flora, lit in a violet light.

A knight stands holding a mace, they are wearing a filthy cape and have a lantern filled with worms, their hounskull is crowned with a pair of antlers.

A barbarian stands atop a staircase wielding a large sword, he is surrounded by skeletons who seem to wish him harm. All are bathed in a scarlet light.
