Taurus

The last of my illustrations in the May issue of FairLady magazine - the Taurus horoscope.

I hope the "bull in a china shop" reference comes through ok?

I'm not convinced that this is particularly successful illustration. I think there's too much going on, and the woman should have been a bit more substantial to hold her own amongst all the elements. I loved coming up with all the different shapes for the "china" though.

Yep, that's us - crash bang boom! I like the level of detail.

I love this one. I think all the stuff that's going on adds to the feeling of being clumsy/scattered, does a great job of expressing the emotion.

I like it too...and I totally agree with Maile! The illustration has got a very 'real' touch!
Dear Heather, just wanted to let you know that your new items/pillows in your etsy shop are beautiful.
