Some of the Historic Tools I was Asked To Illustrate For London's Garden Museum

New Illustration and Animation Commission for London's Garden Museum

This fantastic museum sits on the edge of The River Thames opposite Westminster; Home to a selection of fascinating tools, gardening equipment, design and gardening merchandise from throughout history. I am proud to say I was recently commissioned to create a set of illustrations and animations to be part of the permanent exhibition within the newly redeveloped museum. 

For this commission I was asked to create three illustrated, short animations to demonstrate step-by-step, how some of the unusual tools work and their uses.

After a year of being closed for major redevelopment, I took a sneak peak during opening week to see the animations in place and how well the building was looking after its major works! These are some snaps I took.

- I will be posting some of the illustrations and animations shortly

Artist Friends ...

I recently suggested I might like to start using more green in my work to a friend.

She was clearing out her studio in Copeland Park and came across these pastels still in their original packaging and passed them on to me.  

Nice pastels and nice packaging.

Good friend.
