Pig on a Trampoline

Pig on a Trampoline - three pieces, each 408 x 231mm
Acrylic on 140lb Saunders HP Watercolour paper

This is an idea I had, a series of images of a pig at the top of its bounce. I drew about a dozen poses, some more absurd than others, before arriving at just these three.
Before any porcinologists tell me, I know, pigs don't bend that way. Well, my argument is, a trampoline can be very persuasive.
The lack of eye contact is intentional because I want the viewer to remain disconnected with the pig. It's as if we've just turned a corner and happened upon her, gleefully bouncing away in her own little moment of joy. She'd never know if we simply, and quietly, back away and leave her to it.

This idea led to a concept for a children's picture book. Hopefully I'll get round to completing it, eventually.


For those that way inclined, here's a closer look at of one of them.

A couple of bits and bobs for a cold October morning

Bespoke Baby Portrait

'Delilah'

I've just finished a portrait commission of this gorgeous little girl. I used pencil and watercolour, and she will soon be float mounted in a beautiful vintage-looking white frame, hand made by Fine Framing.

If you'd like any information about commissioning a portrait please drop me an email.

Stay

I created this as the cover for the novel Stay: A Callie Rose Novel by C. C. Jackson. I also did the text, but wanted to post the clean version here.  The finished version, complete with titles, can be seen in my portfolio.
