A photorealistic (slightly sylised) vector alarm clock done in Adobe Illustrator CS3. This took me about 2.5 days. If I ever do something like this again I'll make sure there aren't many objects around to be reflected when I take the photo! What a nightmare! It is entirely blends, shapes and meshes. This was just a cheap freebie clock I got with something else. It looks much better here than it does in real life. :)

This was taken last autumn somewhere near Stirling in the Adelaide Hills. I saw this old gate on the drive home and had to take the shot.

This one took me a little while but I'm pretty happy with the result. This is Dexter (from the TV series of the same name) painted in Corel Painter using mostly Artist's Oils. It's my first attempt at a colour portrait and really the most I've used Painter.

Painting the blood splatter on the side of his face was the best part of it. I spent most of my time on the eyes and could probably spend some more time on it (if I had any!!).

An interspecies romance between an ant and a ladybird. They're enjoying the sunset from atop their eggplant house. This one is going up in my daughter's room.

This soft pastel on Canson card. I also used black and white charcoal pencils to put some detail back into the characters.
