Logo for School

A live brief here! We have been asked to produce a suitable logo for Seaton Sluice First School. There are specific things that need to be included and thought about!!! 
Initially the new logo design was within the school itself, there was a competition and a 4 year old had the winning idea! A rosette to show that their school is the best!!! So here is what I came up with:

Not sure whether to use the greens and blues to resemble the sea...since I have used the image that resembles waves...??? Orange and yellow stand out a lot better on the jumper colour...

Illustration is Wow!!!

Just finished writing out my CV trying my hardest to sell myself without sounding like a total arrogant git...

Searching through possible interests for work placement and I came across this piece of work which I really like!!! The illustrations are amazing and the end result is really clever with the 3 versions of the cover linking together:

Love all the detail :)

Oo also... I have been asked to create a logo for a freelance web designer!!! Extra stuff for my portfolio :D

Tomahawks for Targets EP artwork

I have been working on the EP artwork for an upcoming band Tomahawks for Targets. At meetings with the band we discussed the concept for their artwork; what exactly they wanted i.e. subject matter and/or imagery. 

I drew Margaret Thatcher (title track of the EP is about her) originally in pencil then went over this in fine liner before spreading the ink with water and adding extra ink splats! The image as a whole was pieced together on Photoshop and Illustrator. Here is the result:

This is the final outcome! Just a cardboard sleeve rather than a plastic jewel case insert. The band absolutely love it and have said that it looks exactly how they had pictured it in their minds!!! :D I think it's pretty good too and I'm quite proud of it!
