Here is the view of Bathurst Mews that greeted me outside my hotel room window. My friends and I stayed at the Barry House, its small, but I highly recommend it. You will be very well cared for. This particular view delighted me more than a flat overlooking Hyde park could have. The cramped narrow buildings prickling with chimneys is the exact image that London has always evoked for me. This sketch was started in the hotel, reworked on the plane home from memory and detailed at my desk from a photograph. I am embarrassed to have had to resort to reference, but the truth is we just didn’t spend any time in the hotel beyond sleeping and breakfast… a decision that yielded many happy rewards.
More soon.
Note: Not a moleskine… its a hand.book.

I’ve added a storyboard page to my website. Here you can see some of the commercial work I’ve done over the past few years.
The Woods in the UK

Later this week I will be traveling to London with “Jessie Murphy in the Woods,” the band my girlfriend has been playing with for the past 8 months. I designed their logo, above, and the artwork for their forthcoming album “Eight Belles.” Stay tuned for sketches from my trip and keep an eye on The Woods‘ site for their album drop.
Cheerio!
