Every month my Patreon patrons are welcome to suggest sketch ideas, and this is one of my April sketches.
Almost all of the sketches are shown exclusively on my secret Patreon blog, but you can pledge as little as $1 a month if you want to play along!
Prints!

Prints are once again available of practically everything at my art site!
If you’re interested in something marked “not available”, just let me know and I’ll see what I can do. Also, you can contact me to request A4 size prints of larger pictures if you want to save a bit of money.

The Meteorettes!

I have finally finished my very limited line of resin art dolls, the Meteorettes! Named in tribute of Meteora, and inspired by vintage pulp science fiction and 1980s action figures.
The Meteorettes are hand sculpted, cast in resin and hand painted with carefully styled mohair wool hair and a hand sewn, crystal adorned outfit and staff. The outfit and staff are removable.
They are about 23 cm (9 inches) tall with jointed head, arms and legs. Each doll comes with a painted metal stand.
There are three dolls available, and since they’re completely handmade no doll is exactly like the other.
Only three available!
Hand painted tops!

I’ve made a mini collection of hand made, hand painted tops, all made from recycled fabric! Available now in my Etsy shop.
Don’t worry if you miss out. If these sell I will definitely make more!
I will be in England for a week and a half but I will send out any orders as soon as I get back!

I entered an illustration competition but didn’t make it, so here are the pictures!
They are all illustrations for ghost stories. The one above is The Treasure of Abbot Thomas by M.R. James.
The originals are all for sale if you click through to my art site.

Just playing around with my resin dolls, a clay horn and some sheets of blue plastic.
