Pass It On

This time last year I had the privilege of working with The Bible Society on their new publication, 'Pass It On' which features 'Bible tales like you've never heard them before' - think comic strips, rhymes, raps and poetry. To my complete delight the first story I was asked to illustrate was a rewrite of the Tower of Babel by Anthony Horowitz, who was probably my favourite author as a young teenager! I enjoyed the challenge of drawing something with such a huge sense of scale, and stuck to a more definite colour palette than I would have normally used. 
The other commission was done in quite a different style in response to three poems by Sir Andrew Motion (Poet Laureate 1999-2009), as I wanted to create a minimalist feel which complimented mysterious and intriguing nature of the poetry.
