Artwork Commissions - Illustration

Recommended Posts

Hello,


I recently had an exhibition at Jeannie Avent Gallery and met some fellow local East Dulwich Residents.


I am an artist. I make illustrations for kids (though I they appeal to adults too!). My work is black and white, and is custom hand drawn. I focus primarily on making work as gifts for newborns. An illustration is a great gift that isn't plastic and lasts a long time.


You can see samples of my work here biddyillustration.com or in instagram @biddy_illustration


I also had sculptural works in the show at Jeannie Avent. Some works were in timber and others were crabs made out of cans and old fabric. I had a couple of people ask me if I would be willing to make their child's old clothes into an artwork or sculpture. I would be more than happy to. Get in contact if you would like to discuss an idea!


I am attaching a sample of an illustration commission.

The badger is for the English Dad, he is holding an oak leaf for his British heritage. The mum is South Australian, hence the Australian Magpie and vine leaves for the Barossa Valley. The child was born in 2020, represented by the Pangolin and she is a Gemini, the Gemini Constellation is in the sky. On the moon there is a faint outline of a tennis ball as the parents met playing tennis. I came up with these ideas in response to the answers given to simple questions I gave the client.


Don't hesitate to contact me. I live in East Dulwich and am happy to meet in a park or cafe to discuss ideas.

    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
