Pray for Japan 2011

In the light of the recent tragedy that has not only gripped Japan but the world over the past few days I have created this illustration to mark my personal respects.

I hope to donate this illustration so that they can it can be sold as a print for which all the proceeds will go to help Japan in this time of crisis.

I will let everyone know if and when this will become available and if anybody knows of a governing body or creative organisation that I can donate this to please don't hesitate to get in contact.

More Experimentation

So recentlly I've been getting the feeling of being stuck in a rut. Every image seems to be similar to each other and everything is just getting a bit repetitive, somethings gotta change!

So I decided to set up a little mini project to explore different approaches to working and above is the small first step towards something different. I'm starting to add shadows to my work in a bid to create depth and really want to push and play with the shadows as far as I can, I plan to start using textures more and try out different colour palettes as well. One of the main thing s I also want to do is start to illustrate different things, this should push me well out of my comfort zone and provide a great challenge.

Till next time!

DDB London - Gutenberg & Paperhat

To celebrate the unity of two of the worlds best production based companies Gutenberg and Paperhat, I was commissioned by DDB London to create a striking and engaging image that represented the joint association of both companies.

The image will take the form of a six sheet backlit poster (Bus stop poster) and will be lit up and installed in the reception area for clients to view while in the waiting area. The object of the project was to first create a striking image that would draw the viewer in for them to realise that all the wording within the illustration is relevant to what Gutenberg and Paperhat do.
