Kids Corner: Pete's Latest Guises and Drawing Competition

I started a drawing competition in the children section of the Magazine and I'm please to say we've had a lot of entries. It has a different theme every month, the first being to draw Pete however they liked. The second theme was 'The Sea' and saw Pete as a Pirate. This months theme is 'Adventure' and Pete has taken on the role of a Knight. 

Un beau Jour Pour le Petit Prince: One Fine Day for the Little Prince

My piece for Olney in Bloom depicts a day in the life of the Little Prince and his love, a rose, that he nourished after she mysteriously started growing on his Asteroid B-612. 
The Little Prince bestowed all his affection upon the rose, listened and conversed with her and made her a screen glass globe when she desired to be protected from the cold. The Little Prince’s affections unintentionally inflame the rose’s vanity and eventually she demands too much from him. Feeling exploited he decides to leave his home and embark on a journey across the cosmos. Before he leaves, however, the rose apologises for her cruelty and they reconcile. 

I thought the Little Prince’s story to be a perfect example of our love for flowers and the effort we exert to help them bloom. 

Frog Troop

So here is some concept work for the project I mentioned in the first post of the year.
I'm basically writing and drawing a graphic novel. I had a few concepts for a graphic novels last year and even drew some concept art, but there seemed to be something missing or not quite right when I was working on them.
So I decided to put the unfinished projects on hold and focus on one. I'm still in the early stages and I'm sure it will evolve along the way, but I'll post the progress as I go.

On the Road

Drew this at work for the kid's section of the magazine, it was one of those where you make it up as you go. I sometimes enjoy this kind of illustrating more than the whole thinking up a concept and developing it malarkey. Don't eat the pips.
