A very quick turn around of 5 hours for this piece about the oil slick ability of people in Louisiana to carry on through a disaster.
This top piece is a work in progress. Its a version that didn't get approved at the rough stage. I want to work it up anyway as its taking my work forward and away from a more straightforward construction of a narrative.
Final piece to go for print. I was quite pleased with the final piece but it felt like something i have seen time and time again in my work, which can be a symptom of commissioned work, referencing of past projects. Hopefully the other version will offer something new and a bit more surprising
This version has less of a relation to the landscape description in the piece but is visually more interesting with the moon cut-out dominating.

Really interesting piece about the use of medication with autistic children.
I have quite strong ( but probably misguided ) views on this which became apparent in my first couple of roughs. The final piece became more about the different options/ dilemmas of treatments and that the visually shape of the children didnt fit it to what we, as society, expect as normal behaviour. The parents want what is best but it is a confusing puzzle, maze of theories.
