Low Tech Pokémon Go
Along the lines of the Pokémon designs I posted a while ago, I present Ninetails painted on a rock. I am still involved in hiding and finding pebble art in my community. The process reminded me a bit of

The Cape Town Water Crisis and Me
It has been about 2 weeks since I posted. In that time a lot has happened: sickness, tight deadlines, family responsibilities, neighbourhood watch duties, puppy classes and of course, water-related issues

Polymer Clay Cake Toppers
Over the holidays, my cousin got married. He and his bride asked me to make the wedding cake topper so I was glad to help. The couple love tigers and cats so their cake design was inspired on these animals.

In 2010/ 2011, my first years of illustrating for publishers, I was given a brief for a book of children's bible stories. It is always exciting to get a contract for a large number of illustrations because
