Carnival of the Animals at MRC

I’ve been drawing animals, lots of animals.

I was recently given one of the most amazing illustration gigs I’ve ever ha via The Jacky Winter Group and 21.19. I was asked to create a series of illustrations for a performance of ‘The Carnival of the Animals’ (Camille Saint-Saens) at the Melbourne Recital Centre on Saturday 19th of January 2013. My illustrations and characters were given the gift of movement by the brilliant animators at 21.19 and the animation will play alongside the orchestra, there will also be a narration including the words of Australian playwright Nick Enright. See below for a sneak peek;-

‘The Hideout’.

‘It was so surprising to me that no one else had noticed the hideout before I discovered it that morning, so many people had walked by on their way to work and school.
What first caught my eye was the bright red colour of the pencil, which was extremely sharp and pointing right at me, it was then I suddenly realized
it was being held by a tiny archer in a hand made bow…’
