King Consumables

One of my regular clients Law Institute Journal ran a piece this month highlighting the fact that suppliers of consumer goods and services must comply with a range of statutory guarantees concerning their products. Katy the A/D wanted a King Kongesque spoof. I love the old 1933 version of that film, especially the scene where he battles the T-Rex/Allosauraus in the jungle, scared the hell out of me when I was a kid. This picture is not obviously that scene but another iconic one.

Who bears the onus?

Another one for LIJ. This time addressing certain questions of proof in insurance law.

Incorporated legal practice

I do a lot of work for the Law Institute Journal here in Melbourne. They have a great A/D in Katy Alexander and some interesting though at times dry pieces to be illustrated. This one highlighted the incentives and disincentives of legal practices incorporating into one firm.

Utales

Utales is a website full of digital books for kids that you can download on your Iphone, Ipad or laptop. Not only is it a fun site but they support Pencils for Promise, helping to build schools in developing countries. Two of my books 'Evie's Mad Hair Day' and 'Anyone for Tennis? have just been published on there. Check them out here. http://www.utales.com/

The New Playground

This is the cover illustration for a book I've just completed for Nelson Canada called The New Playground. These projects are just as much about ticking all the boxes rather than anything else but I managed to have a bit of fun with it too.

IF Stay

The theme for this week's Illustration Friday is Stay. This is a spread from my picture book 'Anyone for Tennis'. It seemed appropriate. Spike has much trouble obeying Tom's command to STAY!

Up on the roof

This is an image I've just completed for my Canadian agent's latest promo booklet Box Lunch. The theme was summer digest and I wanted to evoke those lazy hazy summer suburban days I experienced as a kid.
