Waaaay back in the mid-to-late 1990's, when I was a youngun, just getting started in my career, my first pieces of published art were Dinosaur illustrat... Dinosaurs 2

These are pieces that are featured in my self-published book titled - "Gateway: The Book of Wizards", which was funded through Kickstarter. The book is available on my etsy site: seanandrewmurray.etsy.com All works are copyright 2013 sean andrew murray.

"My work is based on a recollection of memories: hills I have climbed; coastal paths I have walked; and the perception of an horizon that stretches far into the distance. The time-worn landscape of Wales, England and Scotland is my inspiration. My unconventional influences (graffiti, commercial print, illustration and graphic design) provide my direction. My practice explores the process of cognitive storage and interpretation of visual and emotional memory of the landscape: simplification, repartition, distorted spaces, abstraction, colour and dynamics. A fusion of ideas, experimentation tempered by my knowledge and experiences. Mine is an unconventional route into art. An apprenticeship in commercial illustration leading to a career in the design and print industry, and then finally fulfilling my boyhood dream to become a fine artist. Alongside exhibiting and selling to patrons all over the world, I have supplied commissioned pieces to international and domestic interior design companies and my work has featured on commercial packaging and book covers too. I regularly give talks and demonstrations to Art Societies, and have recently become a published author with my first book ‘Experimental Nature in Acrylics: Our Landscapes’ published by Batsford Books."

Here's a superb haiku from Hannah (7th grade), which is one of the ten writing options.

And just like THAT it is already November!!! This entire year has flown by so quickly!!! The GOOD news is that it is finally time for me to ...

Modern designers rethink the languid luxury of daybeds, candlesticks and more.

I originally started work on my book – later to be published as A Handknit Romance – in 2010. I had an idea to create some really beautiful, intricate knits that would become heirloom pieces – like the Victorian petticoats I sometimes came across at vintage fairs. I had several problems with publication, but eventually […]

[Edit: Moon - Old signature] These pieces belong to a personal project (originally in Portuguese) which I portrayed my versions of gods and other creatures from Tupi Guarani's mythology. The Illustrations were published with their respective narratives, written from a colleague who adapted these stories based on all search sources she could find around.

Over the last eight years, I’ve written hundreds (probably thousands!) of blog posts for dozens of different blogs. I’ve also written quite a bit about blogging. Today, I wanted to share five of my favourite pieces about blogging, all published here on Aliventures over the past couple of years: Should Your Blog Have a Narrow […]

Pictures - Quick Watercolor Quilt - I am in love with this method! My sister sent me an older book, published in 1999, called Quick Watercolor Quilts, the fuse, fold and stitch method, by Dina Pappas. It took me two afternoons to arrange all the flower pieces, but once arranged on fusible sheer-weight interfacing, the

Larger Pieces - Snail's Tail We are continuing to do more blocks from the  “One Hundred and one Patchwork Patterns”  book by Ruby Short McKim.  The book was published in 1931, and my husband’s maternal Grandmother learned to quilt from this book.  These blocks are done in her honor.   This is the 27th block for…

Since I published photos of my friend Nancy Ellison's weaving of pastors and sheep, I have had requests for drafts and help from others who want to weave similar pieces.  I haven't even tried it myself! But I can help you learn to do it with information graciously shared with me. In the fall of…
