Mixing it up, adding non-observational elements to drawings.
If you would like to read about how I both flooded my kitchen and had a fire in it, visit The Weekly on my illustration site Binky McKee.

My aim is to use unrelated mark-making alongside observational drawing in order to enhance its story, and, as always, to describe the secret world of the object and its connections which tell of it leading quite a different life than we would suppose. Just as in my previous works such as Brave Oleander or Before There Were Saturdays (links to images on this site) this is a world of spirited wonder which exists in things we take for granted, yet can impact our lives and change them for ever.
As always,
Thanks for visiting, see you next week!

Welcome to my work journal. I usually post here once a week on Sunday, but there are often 'bonus' posts in between of interesting things like growing carrot tops and avocado pits, the odd piece of work I do as Binky, and news items.
Thanks for stopping by!

As well as the work you see here, I illustrate under the name of Binky McKee (my mother's maiden name was McKee, Binky was every single one of my great grandmother's many cats!)
