Now on Tumblr

Happy September!

I'm currently working on building my own website, portfolio pieces and working on three different projects right now, so very busy.

I'm going to try and keep up with daily illustrations again, and will be posting on twitter and now tumblr! Follow me here: http://natasharimmington.tumblr.com/

Not sure how tumblr works yet, so apologies if I'm a bit slow with it!

Mid-Summer Update

Hello Bloggers! It's been a while.

I've had a very very busy last few months, and the rest of the year looks set to be ten times as busy! If my graphics tablet pen welds to my hands I won't be surprised. At the moment I'm finishing off a commission, while working on my project with Bloomsbury- and sorting out the rest of the year illustration wise. Fair to say, I've a packed few months ahead.

In good news, I've had 'The Garden' with Orion Books published, and a some small illustrations with Usborne printed up and on their way. Had a brilliant project with Igloo Books too, which I can not wait to see the final prints of. (I even draw some human characters!!)

Updates will be slow while I'm building a website for myself,getting a store-front sorted and hopefully upgrading to a new PC and Graphics Tablet. I've had my current laptop around six years now, and my graphics tablet even longer. It's doing well, but I'm starting to feel left behind and limited with what I can do. Being able to run Photoshop would be nice.

If you want to keep updated, keep an eye on my twitter; @n_rimmington




Until next time!...

The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe

Bowling!

I've been drawing a fair bit recently, as I've had a little spare time...now to keep up-to-date on here! I think these characters will be used for some further illustrations.

I'm a very friendly Lion...

A quick illustration of 'The Herbs' Parsley the Lion. Still trying out styles.
A little more French looking than usual. If I have time I'll try to animate him on Flash

Piggy in the sweetshop

Finally...an experiment I like enough to upload!

I'd love to do a story set in a sweet shop because sweets are so much fun to draw, but I'm not sure anyone would publish it given the whole 'sweets are bad for you'.
Unless it was Charlie and the Chocolate Factory...with pigs.
