Faces – Volume 1
In my professional life, I work as a Graphic Designer, but in my spare time, I doodle. Quite a lot.
I've always been an arty kid, mostly because my Mum encouraged it (she liked to paint as well), and after spending years copying stuff from MAD magazine followed by a brief attempt as a graffiti writer, as my teens drew to a close I really got into drawing people. Particularly faces.
As life went on and things got in the way, I hadn't done any drawings like this for the best part of twenty years, but then thanks to the iPad I found my passion for it again a few years ago.
Up until now, all of these illustrations have lived online via my instagram accounts mostly, but I decided to take the plunge and select a few of them to package up into a 36 page A5 book called 'Faces – Volume 1'.
The book comprises of 33 illustrations of well-known people, mostly from the music world and some from the graffiti world, printed on good quality, thick paper. Most of the illustrations have been done digitally, with a few done traditionally.
