Just a quick post to show off the results of some illustration work I did a few months ago for Left With Pictures‘ EP – Secretly. I can’t help but post the printed outcome as I’m so pleased with everything about it. It has turned out exactly as I hoped, the colours are perfect and I couldn’t be happier with the final product. Big thanks to Organ Grinder Records for making sure the whole thing came together.

Here’s the front and back of the cd in a nice clear sleeve:

And this is how the card corners fold out of the back to reveal two illustrations:

Having designed every facet of this package – here is the cd itself, the inside card design, and the lyrics booklet which are all encased in the two sheets of card that open up:

There we go. Thanks for indulging me.

You can listen to some tracks from the EP at Left With Pictures’ MySpace page. You can also grab hold of one of these beautifully designed CDs from the Organ Grinder website on the 29th September.

Here’s an illustration I did recently for the latest Electric Sheep Magazine. It accompanies a review and retrospective of the modern cult sci-fi classic Dark City in light of the recent Director’s Cut. The review is an edited transcript of a discussion between Alex Fitch and I – it can be read here.

The discussion was published online as a podcast which you can hear here. If you decide to have a listen please note I was exhausted at the time and hadn’t realised it would become a podcast so I ramble unintelligibly and incoherently and had absolutely no idea what I was saying. Should be a fun listen.

Been a bit quiet of late here for which I apologise. Lot of new material on the way but in the meantime here’s a small selection of some sketches I’ve been doing. More soon!
