Independence Day 2

In my regular spot in SFX magazine I am called upon to visualise films that are in development or even just being planned. That means that sometimes I have very little to go on beyond the title. Sometimes we don't know who will be starring in it, directing it or what it will be about. In the current issue of SFX the film in question is a sequel to the wonderful big budget B movie Independence Day and the only info they had was that Will Smith isn't going to be in it. Here's how it turned out. I had fun drawing the alien and all it's tentacles. FZZZZZZAP!!!

Jasmine and Michaela

This week on two consecutive nights I was lucky enough to draw two models who were new to me and they were both fabulous. On the Monday night at Kate Shields' private session in her lovely flat overlooking Brighton sea front our model was the truly beautiful Jasmine whom Kate had met at Glastonbury. A small group of artists attempted to capture her loveliness on paper.
On the following night at the SCAC session we had another new model Michaela who was also
fantastic to draw as I hope you'll see from my scribblings. I'm off back to Palma next week where I have yet to find a drawing session so it was great to draw these two wonderful models before I go.
