L'Etranger by Albert Camus


Read this quite a while ago and had been meaning to do an illustration for it for a very long time! Well, here it is depicting one of (many) pinnacle scenes in the book. I chose to leave the gun out of the image, as I didnt feel it necessary because for me it is the boiling heat of that day and the bottled up frustration within our protagonist which I felt were more vital in describing the scene...

The Road by Cormac McCarthy



Ive been hearing so much about this book (by the same author of No Country for old men ) called The Road The imagery described to me has been feeding my imagination aplenty and I had a bit of spare time today so I put my pen to paper and came up with this! I feel bad for drawing something Ive not even started reading yet, but its even worse when someone has to hold back their creativity, surely?

Illustrated covers: Philip K Dick Collected short stories



Books are collected by themes: "Androids", "Time-Travel" & "Parallel Worlds"
The covers loosely relate to the title and neatly join together!

The Face of Another by Kobo Abe

Above: Alternate cover


Above: Initial version

A cover I did of a book I'm currently reading by a Mr. Kobo Abe! A stunning piece of writing about a man who loses his face and subsequently his identity, and his mind, sort of. Highly recommended, although if you don't fancy reading a wordy exercise in existentialism, perhaps watch the film of the same title, starring Tatsuya Nakadai!

The Tanuki and the Tengu's Magic Fan



This is a childrens book I designed and illustrated in my final year at university. It ties in quite neatly with my interests in folklore and mythology, hope you like it as much as I did in making it.
