Found a small photo of a 'sloaney' girl in a magazine and used it as reference for this illustration. Tried loads of versions with different colours before i settled on this one.
I rent a studio off photographer David Short. I'm really happy with this illustration but he thinks it's made him look like Hank Hill from 'King of The Hill.'
Inspired by a trip to Black Gang Chine in the Isle of Wight (someone has to be i suppose). There was a lifeboat exhibition with dummies wearing the clothes of lifeboatmen through the ages. I took photos and used them as reference for this illustration.
Brahm Design in Leeds comissioned me to illustrate the Roses Design Awards invitations. They had an idea already. I just needed to create some characters who's faces suited the lines. I did the hand rendered type too. These are the posters.
