What's In Store?

I've added a few more prints to the Store on my website and reduced some prices so come and have a look-see. There's also an added Request A Print feature if there's something you see on the site that you would prefer a print of. Just get in touch with your request via email on info@andy-potts.com with a description or screengrab of the image you would like and I'll see if it's available. I'll do my darnedest to accommodate you.

Editorially Speaking

The latest issue of Advanced Photoshop is running an article on editorial illustration which I've contributed some thoughts and illustrations to. It's informative stuff and features some great work by the likes of Andrew Archer and Darren Hopes. Worth a gander.

Techy

More technology themed illustration for Consumer Electronics Vision Magazine looking at the coming onslaught of Internet enabled TVs. Surf's well and truly up.

Radliness

In an attempt to blast through the January blues I took off for a long weekend of snowboarding in the Austrian Alps with my bro and a few keen cohorts. Despite the lack of recent snow the extensive Kirchberg / Kitzbuehel pistes were well groomed enough for some of us to flirt with radliness (it's in the Urban Dictionary, honest). I was barely introduced to rad personally, getting down in one piece tends to float my boat. There was some breathtaking Mount Olympus style scenery to chew on with some dramatic descents through the clouds and the hostel kept us pumped full of cheer and Jagermeister with a few tall tales of severed noses thrown in for good measure. Ahsum!

Holy Ad Grail!

Here's the latest piece for Design Week's Private View column looking at how award winning ads should be both the most creative and sales-effective and thus take on the mantle of the industry Holy Grail. Cue choir.

Vision, Or Lack Thereof

Here's a cover and spread illustration for Futurelab's latest, and possibly final, issue of Vision looking at global connectivity in education. Futurelab was recently downsized during the new UK government's Quango cull last year so it's all change there. Big thanks to Ben and Marissa for all the work over the years and good luck!

Gadget Heat

First out of the 2011 gate is this illustration for PC World magazine looking at the 'Hottest Tech' coming this year. 3D is the buzzword so expect lots of vivid protrusions.

Cornished Again

Back at the studio in a verrry grey and wet London crying into my keyboard and reminiscing over another lovely sojourn to Cornwall over the Christmas break. An indulgence of beach walks, cosy pubs, cornish pasties and mulled cider. Here are a few pics from around St.Ives and Padstow to gander at. Now 2011 beckons, must snap out of it...hup, hup, hup!
