ANTLERS? The Merry Wives of Windsor

Above: Merry Wives of Windsor 2012 (show poster)

This was a show poster for a second year BAPA Shakespeare production of the Merry Wives of Windsor. It worked really well in addressing both modern costume used in the play where as not giving away that it would be used as a niche with the traditonal dialect.

FREELANCE POSTERS

Above: Freelance Circle Bar Posters April 2012

Circle Bar commisioned me to do some freelance promotional work and these posters was the outcome.

My vision was to ecapusulate the idea of hot summer and an idea of warmth of conversation and friends.

All this was to show how warm and atomospheric Circle is comparison to regular bars.

now that I have your attention

What about the wildlife? Perhaps we should consider where my bison is going to roam with a total lack of foliage. It is a throbbing issue on all our minds when it comes to foliage. The steps used to protect roaming creatures and their habitats are explored in detail in this book.

PORK PUBLISHING

orestry is a lost art, there is indeed nothing more powerful raw source on earth than that of man and his wood. The modern forest is resilient but in order to survive and provide it takes hardcore man power.

The men and indeed women who work to supply us with a variety of materials, understand their great responsibility to the eco-loop and the well fare of the planet.

Wood being the most widely used material in the world, I think it is safe to say we all need wood in our lives.

The book cover project was over a year ago now but I have carried on with some of the themes and the latest of the series is now possibly one of my favourite pieces of design, A Very Short Introduction to Tacos and Buritos. It was inspired by my friends halloween costume, she was mexican and it was hillarious!

A Very Short Introduction To Bitchy Unicorns Bitchy Unicorns Book covers 2012

My love of unicorn tranforms into every form of project and has done so with most projects. I love colour and the idea of imagination that comes from mythological creatures that inspire joy and childlike adoration.

TYPE!

2011

I am recently all about type, I enjoy designing my own typefaces mostly decorative and find it oddly relaxing and effective. This was my first typeface and I have been quite taken with it, very basic, very simple very me.

FAG

This typeface was designed for a series of posters I was planning to do along side my McQueen project about sadness and homophobia and how the term fag is seen as so offensive yet used so commonly.

‘FAG’ 2012

IQUEA These pieces are now a sort of hobby. The idea of personality breaking through paper toys and resulting in small desk toys that resemble various characteristics of my exboyfriends... I’m aiming to make twenty six in total one with every letter of the alphabet. So far I’m genuinely not struggling for ideas as they come naturally with each individual. the idea is that they are relatable and cute, yet a reminder to learn from your mistakes. I love mistakes hence why I have made quite a few of them, and probably will make a few more.

Featured to the left is Naught Neil, famous by his nickname BEDMAN! (as he sells beds) also because he gets drunk and shows people his naughty parts, however if you met him on a weekday he would be very quiet and shy hence the many faces.

Above: Cake Not Hate Posters 2012

My own idea of what marriage should be about, who really cares if the ingredients are a little different so long as the cake is good and made with love. My idea was cake not hate bright and garish and never dull and above all just as valid as a straight marriage.

END HATE

... EAT CAKE

FIN! (BUT STAY TUNED)
