Vélib


First negotiated brief of second year, based on our study trip to Paris. I chose to do an advertising/poster project promoting Paris bicycle hire, which I found to be an enjoyable way of getting around the city, despite a close shave with a double decker bus.

Below is one of my roughs that I think actualy works better as an image, although conceptually it is a bit dubious.

Domestic violence awareness



First year poster project. I aimed to show how domestic violence is a bad thing by demonstrating its effect on gingerbread people, with delicious results.

Frampton-on-Severn: a Bird's Eye View

 

Here is what I did for the FMP way back in the glory days of foundation - an illustrated visitor's guide to where I live; marketed at birds. In a way I don't think I've done anything much like it before or since, in that it involved pulling quite a lot of separate things together (paintings, woodcut prints, photos, victorian birdhouses, scanned things, etc) to make one complete thing. This is to date also the only time I've ever used a severed chicken foot in my artwork (eat your heart out, damien hirst).
