Big plans!

Hey everyone. The exhibition is nearly finished and it's been great fun. The private view was amazing and I have really enjoyed the end of an era at west herts college! Finally leaving to move forward.

Thank you to everyone who has been following an supported me!

Anorak Brief assigned at University.

I was asked to do a double page spread for one of my assignments based on the children's magazine Anorak. I chose the title of "What weird animals haven't been discovered...yet!" I wanted to mix in collage as I relate that mostly to children's books. I wanted to keep the animals clean though and make the background a little bit more rough with the collage effect.

I am quite pleased with my final outcome really, it would have been a bit over the top if the animals were collaged as well as the back ground.

*update*

After going through all my old USB sticks I found the individual components that I had created to come up with the final piece. I thought I would add them as it's not only nice to see the clean finished version but my journey towards this in a raw state. I enjoy making textured back grounds and I feel my time management wasn't great on this project but I did make time for experimentation.

I think just by looking at the individual pieces you can see the texture better and I think by using photoshop to put the spread together which was inevitable I lost the life and energy in the collage. I hope you enjoy. (excuse my scribbles hehe)

If you made it this far a cup of tea is in order. Thank you :)

Wood letter press experiment!

I spent half a day in the print room working with a graphic designer who is passionate about type, I had an amazing day and learnt so much by just talking and asking questions. I produced this print as an experiment but I may use my name cut out for other things as I really like the font I picked it to create this.

It is wonky but I kind of like it that way as it looks more hand made instead of printed from a computer. :) really good day.  

I'm back!

Hey everyone. Haven't posted for a while been epically busy at university with hand ins but I do have a chunk of work to put up and some experimental pieces! watch this space for more work to be put up my final piece is due soon as well!

Moby Dick Project.

This was one of my first year projects. This has to be my favorite project yet due to the ammount of work I produced and how pleased I was with the final outcome.

I used photoshop just to position everything and layer my drawings/paintings.

Drawing faces is my favorite thing to do anyway so I used this to my advantage and produded this. :)

Juice Carton Labels

My juice labels for a project this year :).

I usually hate drawing fruit so I took more of a cartoon childlike approach to enjoy the project a little more. I loved using my usual Caran Dashe watercolour pencils :)!

Mix Mag

 

I had to draw artists that were preforming at a festival for a project assigned to me last year. These were the final outcomes and I was pretty pleased with them. 

Guardian

First year guardian project. Final design for a brief set to us about inflation and debts. I chose to draw this man in worry and dispair.  

First client drawing!

This is my first client drawing :) I was asked by a media student to do a poster and a book cover for his film. He kindly offered me the job and this is what I produced :)
