Cent Magazine Philosophy Illustration

©gemmasmithdesign.com


I recently got asked to do an illustration to be featured on Cent Magazine's Philosophy page which will be featured for the next 3 months.  I was really excited about this as it is one of favourite magazines.  I started buying Cent Magazine when I was studying at Chelsea Collage of Art and Design doing my degree and used to always dream of doing some sort of work with them........and finally that day has arrived!! It's such a lovely magazine to buy so if you haven't you must go and get one...my favourite issue of all time was the Betty Jackson issue which has amazing illustrations in it . It is still available to purchase on their website so if you don't have it go and buy it!

London College of Fashion Illustration


Here is my illustration for the London College of Fashion MA review for Amelia's Magazine.  My illustration is for the very talented designer Zoe Grace Fletcher, it was a joy to draw an illustration on her work. To see the full review go have a read on Amelia's Magazine!

New Work


©gemmsmithdesign
At the moment I seem to be unbelievably busy. I have a big project on designing fashion prints for a high street label so getting time do draw some new illustrations is very hard at the moment.  However this project should be done by Monday so I can get back to drawing and can start posting my new works!

Until then this is a picture I drew two weeks ago which I have yet to share with everyone.  I've been working a lot of text into my illustrations recently and so far I think I quite like the results.  I hope you do too.

I have been really busy over the past few days so haven't had the chance to update my blog.  But today I have something new to share with you all. This is my illustration I did for Amelia's Magazine for an interview with the band I Like Trains.  They are currently on a UK tour and have a new album out.  So check out the review and maybe go see them.
