1 of 4 of my entries for the 2018 Book Illustration Competition by the Folio Society and House of Illustration. You can vote for your favourite entry here: http://competitions.houseofillustration.org.uk/book-illustration-competition-2018/peoples-choice-award/

So this was one of the drawings I made for Book Illustration Competition organized by Folio Society! Unfortunately my entry didn't get into the finals but I still like what I did  Also the longlisted entries are simply stunning, you can vote for your favs on Folio's website!! (competitions.houseofillustrati… ) The winner will be announced on 20th of February. I'm in love with some of the entries, it's no shame to loose against such great artists   The task was to illustrate 3 of Sherlock Holmes stories they provided. This one was an illustration to 'A Scandal in Bohemia'!

No 3... the Larch (I've been watching too much Monty Python). Ok, it's an oak, and a small Sherlock furiously calculating. The last illustration from The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (Arthur Conan Doyles), done for The Folio Society BIC2018 contest. . . . #illustration #sherlockholmes #foliosociety #bic2018 #digitalartwork #digitalart #victoriantimes #londonvictorian #oak #manison #musegraveritual

This is a shameless self-promotion post: Some of you may know I’m an aspiring illustrator and was lucky to be selected for Book Illustration Competition 2018 long list. Please help me win The People’s Award by voting for my work (nr 18) on this link: http://competitions.houseofillustration.org.uk/book-illustration-competition-2018/peoples-choice-award/ Thanks!
