My image ‘The Merry River’ has been selected for the Serco, London Transport Museum and Association of Illustrators The River Thames Competition. An exhibition of the top 50 entries will be shown at the London Transport Museum and winners announced at the private view evening in
May.

On and surrounding the river I’ve portrayed aspects of London’s varied life to create an energetic and humorous poster. The image is far the most detailed I’ve created. I stayed true to my initial sketch, but I was adding new elements and rearranging them an hour before the entry deadline! I did have lots fun creating this illustration.
