Rodnik Band Clothing

As an intern at the rodnik band these were items that we worked on, they have actually been made and have been shown in Italian Vogue! very happy

back at the Rodnik band

I was asked back to the Rodnik band to help out for a day. I focused on helping out with the lino cuts, here is my best one of the day.

litro christmas card

I have created Litro magazines email Christmas Card for them. Drawing the right tree turned out to be a nightmare but in this case a simple triangle worked better than a detailed tree.

pocket watch

I have illustrated a pocket watch that was left to me by my grandfather. I did a basic version because the detail is too small to show up and then I added the grey lines to make it pop.

issue 100

Here is the front cover for issue 100.

christmas card designs

I am designing chrismas cards for Litro magazine, I liked this one so much that I decided to post it with my name. Happy early christmas!

Sunset Stroll . . .

I was walking my dog the other evening and the setting was so perfect . . . So I took this picture.

ONE YEAR TODAY!

After adding up all my internships due to free time I have realised that I have now completed a years worth of placements!!!! . . . Now can someone please give me a job?, I feel I have paid my dues.

Eye of Money

At the moment I am enjoying a placement with Litro Magazine. I was asked to illustrate an eye for a short story on money. Here is the outcome.

internship

I have been lucky enough to get a months placement with The Rodnik Band. You can see their designs at www.therodnikband.com. I am working with them to create new designs and product packaging for their winter collection that will be shown at Londons fashion week.

my exhibition

Here are the pictures of my exhibition after it has been put up at Southend Uni.

new poster and book sleeve

here are my latest photos for my exhibition plus the sleeve that I have designed for my book. I decided to use one large photo instead of a poster with a select few because I feel that the picture in the frame entices you more. My tutor suggested to me that I should try a sleeve for my book in this design and he was right, it looks lovely. I printed a the picture on the sleeve so that you would be able to see it through the gap in the sleeve, I thought it wouldn't suit my book but I was very wrong.

Covent Garden, Fleet Street, Hyde Park, and Kensington Gardens

Here are a few pages from the chapters: Covent Garden, Fleet Street, Hyde Park, and Kensington Gardens . . .

Southbank, Highgate Cemetery and Primrose Hill

Here are some clips of pages from the chapters: Southbank, Highgate Cemetery and Primrose Hill . . .

The pictures that enclose the chapter

To separate the chapters from each other I have started the chapters with half of an image and ended them with the other half of the image. When holding up the pages in between the chapters you will see the full image. I thought it was a nice way to separate the sections.

Underground Chapter

This is an example of how my chapters are set up, this is only a small section but I have kept the same theme throughout the whole book. I don't have any page numbers so each chapter is started and finished with the same image and has its own colour scheme for my thought text.

The Design Trail

After a few months of hard work my final major project is complete! I wrote to designers based/from London asking what their favourite place/thing in London is and why? With the answers I received I went on an excursion around London documenting these places with photos I took and my thoughts. This book is my documentation of the design trail that I followed . . .

These pictures are of my A1 poster and my A5 faux leather book, both of these will be on display at my end of year show in Southend, D&AD New Blood, and New Designers.

Latest Student Union poster

This is the latest poster that I have designed for the Student Union along with matching tickets to the event.

A Designers Guide To London

These are the front covers I have designed for my book to be exhibited at the New Designers exhibition. I will change the design in the future again but I need to submit something for the New Designers magazine which will publish my work.

Student Union 2nd poster

I was asked to create a poster for the Student Union, this was for a fun filled night with a lot going on, I have created tickets that also go along with the theme. From the feed back that I received it went down well with members of the union.
