In this workshop I will be sharing how many of the principles and techniques we employ as world designers can be applied to figurative illustration to give greater depth, detail and meaning to your work. This workshop will cover my conceptual and technical process behind an illustration produced for Coilhouse Magazine, Sherlock Holmes vs The White Fox Woman – a brief History of Chinese Pulp (2010).”
