Saturday, 25 February 2012. Taking Stock One Year On . Prophetik AW12: Illustration for Amelia's Magazine. Some of my very first illustrations were for Amelia's Magazine exactly a year ago - and of the wonderfully romantic Prophetik collection:. Http:/ www.gillyrochester.com/2011/02/prophetik-at-london-fashion-week.html. Well one year and quite a few illustrations on (as can be seen by the tag cloud on the right), I could not over-state the positive influence that Amelia's Magazine. The illustration abov...

GillyRochester: Shanghai sketches 1
http://www.gillyrochester.com/2014/05/shanghai-sketches-1.html
Thursday, 1 May 2014. Some oil pastel sketches from the first few days in China, in Shanghai. I used a tiny Chinese A6 journal, with hemp/bamboo pages, and clumpy oil pastels - not only clumpy but cheap, poor quality ones that I think are about 20 years old. BUT I found this unexpectedly liberating as I had to be bold in a small space and had no fear of wasting expensive materials. Posted by Gilly Rochester. Thursday, May 01, 2014. 1 May 2014 at 22:25. 2 May 2014 at 12:44. This is the illustration I did ...

GillyRochester: May 2014
http://www.gillyrochester.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Monday, 12 May 2014. Illustration 12.5.14. Posted by Gilly Rochester. Monday, May 12, 2014. Saturday, 10 May 2014. Secret 7" 2014, Entry 2: Jake Bugg's 'Strange Creatures' - and SUCCESS! I decided to submit a 2nd single cover design, in addition to the Elbow one in the previous post. This was for Jake Bugg's 'Strange Creatures'. Both images were layered/collaged on to a gouache and ink background and some linework added digitally - this was to suggest both telephone wires and a guitar's strings and frets.

GillyRochester: Flipping Nora ... Pam Hogg AW12 illustration for Amelia's Magazine
http://www.gillyrochester.com/2012/02/flipping-nora-pam-hogg-aw12.html
Wednesday, 29 February 2012. Flipping Nora . Pam Hogg AW12 illustration for Amelia's Magazine. This is the illustration I did last week for Amelia Gregory's review of the rather amazing Pam Hogg AW12 collection. This design is strangely prim and puritanical, especially compared to some others in the catwalk show - but perhaps that's whole point:. This was an earlyish stage in the illustration, with inktense crayons used over gold acrylic:. Read Amelia's review here. Posted by Gilly Rochester. Illustratio...

Monday, 25 August 2014. DrawingAugust 2014 Week 3. My 7 drawings for days 14 to 21 of #DrawingAugust 2014 - somehow involving China, France, Switzerland, Greece and Yorkshire this time. I didn't realise. It has been wonderful browsing through all the other #DrawingAugust contributions on Twitter - over 200 new drawings per day but worth the time! And there are many, many exceptional and exciting artists and pieces of work. Revisiting of a pencil sketch of an old French door done August 2013. The above is...
