A late Odd-Fish again this week. Sorry about that.
I have good reason though, honest!
The author Jasper Fforde contacted me again and commissioned me to do two more illustrations to promote his upcoming novel in the Thursday Next series, ‘The Woman Who Died a Lot’, released in the UK on July 10th this year. (USA release is October 2nd)

Brecon Beacons, a tourist magnet indeedThe first is continuing the tradition in Fforde’s books for having a mock tourist advertisement poster for the Socialist Republic of Wales at the back like a sponsor. I chose the picturesque area of Wales known as Brecon Beacons with its sweeping vistas and dramatic landscape. In those rare moments when the rain stops you can see for miles.

Smote SolutionsThe second is also a mock advertisement, but this time for a company called Smote Solutions which specialises in protection for your home or business from acts of smiting by vengeful deities. The text on this advertisement will be added later.
