Oh S**T

A quick image I came up with today. Self portrait. Pretty bleak, but in a jokey way.

Roll up, Roll up, for the most underwhelming show on Earth!

Not alot to say about this one. Other than elephants are a bitch to draw. I never quite got him right...

End of Prohbition Party!

This is an unused flyer for an event coming up at the Roundhouse. Personally, I was really happy with how this turned out, but I think it was deamed alittle too 'young' for thedesired crowd. Worth showing though.

Originally done in colour, I dropped it into sepia so help with the theme, and it turned out working much better than the coloured version, which looks very loud in comparison. I will post the finalized concept for the Prohibition Party soon as it has gone to print.

A Festival of Ale and Music

One of my most time consuming and challening projects to date, I wanted to produce something in the style of Alfons Mucha, with a result that captured the paintily, Art neauveux nature of the era/artist.

Too achieve this effect, I had to build and built layers of texture, too give its its worn, mottled look.

Quiz in a Cave

Another project for the Hand and Heart, this time a Quiz with a difference, absolutely no cheating possible. Thank god for receptionless caves.

I wanted to do something relatively simple, sharp colours, black and white cut outs, highlighting the 'anti-cheat' atmosphere of the quiz.

Hand and Heart Jazz Club

Starting working with Hand and Heart on some projects recently, and this is the product of the first event. As predicted, I'm loving the 'textured disstressed look', but at least it fits with the theme.

I'd aimed  to create a Parisian, Art Deco style film poster, and I think it came off pretty well.

Signal!

 

Was asked to design a flyer for an up coming night called Signal, and this is what I did. I have recently become a fan of layering textures in order to distress the image. I know I'm relatively slow coming to this type of design technique, but better late than nevs. I will probably over use it from now on.

 

I wanted to go for a old fashioned, bar sign sort of feel. Like a stencil done on abit of old drift wood. I managed to inquorporate some semophore men into it too, to go along with the 'signal' idea.
