Diesels grand entrance

A friend of mine asked me to draw a little picture of a porch he'd like for his cat flap! A little front and side elevation and artist impression. Was very fun to doodle 

Greetings card project

So I've landed myself a new job as greetings card designer and these were my designs that I had to submit as part of the interview process. 

I am very happy that I will now be getting paid to draw. Yay. 

Uni2 know Magazine

I just thought that I would post up the illustrations that I did for Uni2 Know magazine Issue 2. The article was a guide to surviving the naff new years eve party. Fortunately my NYE was not naff.

Hello 2014

Hey 2014. How you doing?
Sorry 2013. I didn't blog very much.
Living on a boat and not having wifi is the problem.
Ill try keep up with it this year.

So an update of my last few months.

Late summer I was commissioned to draw a load of spot illustrations for oakhouse foods for their winter catalogue.  In true katie ruby style I managed to get a cat in there!

I also recently contributed to kids with puns zine 2. That was cool. But what was cooler was that creative review blogged about it. And my work was on their home page.  Sweet

I also did a little contribution for a uni mag about shitty new years parties

So 2013 I got some where in some sense.

Here's to 2014!

Pages from my sketchbook

A little alphabet project I am working on. Birdies 

A little taster

A little taster for a collaboration project I've started with Poonam Mistry. Will be posting the final outcome in the next few weeks hopefully

Not For Rental Exhibition

So I was asked to take part in Not For Rental, an exhibition inspired by film. The brief was to create a VHS sleeve inspired by a film, but not to put the title etc on the front, so the viewer had to guess the film.

Here is my entry

...and to my amazement, my VHS box was featured in an article on the guardian website.... awesome!
