This is the tearsheet for my illustration in the forthcoming edition of Cipreste. This illustration accompanies an article about a proposal in a Portugese city to build power lines which isn't out of the ordinary, but in this instance the power lines will mean that the local helicopter ambulance will be unable to operate.

Here is the tearsheet for the most recent illustration I have done for Cipreste. This was a piece about the environment and the damage being done to it (the article was around the time of the Copenhagen summit). Unfortunately due to budget constraints it has been printed in black and white. The full colour version can be seen below.

I have done another illustration in what is hopefully going to be a monthly ongoing association with Portugese magazine, Cipreste. This one is based on an editorial article about the environment and the damage we are doing to it. I have taken the two main polluters in the world and shown them beating the crap out of the earth. The USA is represented by an Abraham Lincoln style character who is using a steering wheel as a weapon to symbolise the car industry, and the Chinese character is using an industrial sort of hammer to symbolise Chinese industry. Images of the final printing in the paper will be up here soon.

These are the editorial illustrations mentioned below that went to print in the 29th of October 2009 edition of Cipreste newspaper in Portugal. The political one wasn't printed in colour in the end, but it still works I think.

These are two illustrations I have done for a Portugese newspaper. The first was to accompany an article that discusses bands like AC/DC and a Portugese band called Xutos & Pontapes that have been playing the same kind of music for twenty odd years. The article talks about there being a scientific-like formula for these bands, which inspired the illustration. So I have a concoction being made by a scientist that includes all of crucial elements of rock - Blood, Sweat, Tears, Vodka, Hair, the armpits of a t-shirt and the crotch of a pair of jeans.
The second is politically based and accompanies an article about how the party in power at the moment in Portugal (PSD - Partida Social Democrata) have spent way more on their recent local city council campaign than all of the other parties.
Tearsheets to be added soon.
