It's that time of year again!!

Hello! 

As the title above says it's that time of year again and we are all getting ready for christmas! Now do you have your christmas cards yet??

This time last year I designed a couple of charity christmas cards for St Johns Wales. Take a look at them here http://www.stjohnwales.co.uk/christmas/ you can buy both of my designs "Polar Bear Presents and polar Mistletoe" in packs of 10 from this website and all proceeds will go to St Johns Wales. Helping them to carry on with their life saving work! 

Mock-Ups!

Heres the Mock-ups that I promised. I think they look great what do you think?

Its exciting to see them on books even if it's not for real :( 

The Jungle Book

I am trying to build my portfolio at little at the moment, and it's giving me a chance to play and practice using paper and collage. I’ve really enjoyed working on this cover, creating different leaf shapes and mixing the different shades of green. 

I'm really pleased with the outcome of this cover. In my next post I’m hoping that I will have some images of this cover and the James and the Giant Peach cover on book mock-ups! 

As always feel free to give any feedback on my work :) 

James & the Giant Peach

 

 

           

Here’s a little piece of work that I have been having a stab at. It's a book cover for James & The Giant Peach, which I used to love when I was little. The image is of the scene that has stuck in my mind the most from when I had the book read to me when I was little. Hope you like it!  

                                                     

My Olympic Snails

These are my sporty snails, made for a rather loosely based Olympic theme. After the project ended I wanted to take the snails outside and photograph them racing amongst the foliage!  

Original Paperwork

I have finally tracked down these photos of the original paper work for my mary Poppins flyer. (they were on a forgotten memory stick!) 

Wishing on a star

These are some photos of my summer project work, we were asked to illustrate superstitions. I did this ages ago back in August last year and it has been sat on my desk in uni ever since. It seems all my work ends up being 3D. I love working in layers and having my work 3D means that i get a real depth to my work.
