MELT

This is some typography that i did for a poster at college for the film the machinist.. i melted letters into metal and then scanned the metal. i think it creates some interesting textures and i was pleased with the outcome.

I discovered this illustrator in the london metro where she won a competition to  be on the cover. she did an illustration about the animals that she sees on her way to work. I think i have a real soft spot for animal illustrations they seem to crop up where ever i go or whatever i do. 
I love the childlike style of her illustrations and the soft colours that she uses. i think that they are simple but effective and they make me want to put them up on my kitchen cupboards so i can look at them all the time.

The worst internet cafe ever and now then..

So we still dont have the internet in our house in london.. I havent been able to post anything recently :(! but im in an internet cafe even though the internet is rubbish i am going to attempt a post....


i havent got any new illustrations to post but this magazine is from sheffield and something that i always kept an eye out for and collected when i could. 
Now then is free and i think thats such a great thing that illustration can be broadcast to the whole of sheffield for free. it means more people can see and appreciate it. 
i like that each issue focuses on one illustrators work and showcases a variety of illustrations by them.
