More people I see at uni.

In which we discover how badly I need to learn how to colour.

Old Work

An old assignment from last semester. The brief was to create a CD sleeve with 3 Pantone spot colours. As you can see I took that quite literally.

People I see at uni

This may cross just slightly into creepy territory, but I can't help myself.
I love ogling (maybe 'ogling' is the best word to defend myself against accusations of creepiness...) people at uni; they've all carved out a little stylish niche of their own amidst the thousands of students and lecturers that drift around campus. And they're all kind of brutally nonchalant about it, like the last thing they want is for people to notice how much time they've taken trying to get people to notice them.

So I couldn't help but draw this guy!

Hermit's January EP

It's finally arrived!

One of my musically talented friends commissioned me to design some album art over the summer, the result of which is the epic folk masterpiece Hermit's January EP. Check the music out at James Kemp@myspace or vote for him at unearthed! Here's the final artwork:

Artwork proofs:

The process of designing a suite of art, for a client, to be printed was an immensely valuable experience - more so than a year's worth of uni assignments. I collided head-first with the learning curve (to say the least) but I'm pretty proud of the result.

And the music sounds great! Go buy it!

March art dump

Here's a couple of things I made to practise using my graphics tablet.

These two were the unfortunate victims of my intial doodling. It's obvious I was terrified to put any colour down. (Value? Tone? Hiss! Get it away!)


Study of a classical sculpture I found in wikimedia commons. Getting used to blending shadow and highlights with the stylus.

A different style again, with no blending and flat colours. I was going to say, "This proves I have little grasp of the human body", but that'd just be setting myself up for a 'that's what she said'. Pre-empted, foes!
