Paper Companion

Whilst brainstorming with some paper characters... as you do, I realized how using physical objects can make you change how you approach illustration as something other than working on a flat surface, nothing new there. Just liked the aspect of introducing everyday objects and then changing the function. A bit of creative interaction with mundane items, cable tie rapped around a lamp with a stain in the background...nice. I dunno, there could be something about putting the most insignificant (recyclable) items to good creative use, that makes it even more appealing to me. Or maybe it reminds me a tad of Little Big Planet.

For the poor Pigeon

Sad illustration today. For Five years or more, I've been kept a close eye on by two loved up pigeons, sitting on the phone wire outside my window by day, and tree branches by mid-day. However I woke this morning by shrills, thought it was the usual seagull vs crow chorus. Sadly as you may have guessed the sight of the single pigeon sitting on its own, above what was left of the other made for a sad morning.
