Here's a little piece that appeared in the Harborugh Mail this week. It's a screen grab from their website so here's a link to the actual site if you would like to read it, like it or share it from their site.
A few little bits of info not 100% accurate but hey ho, that's the nature of being in the press! And before you ask yes that's my office and yes the walls are shocking, bright pink! They help me wake up in the morning :) Enjoy!
Say hello to Sam. Same Day Sam is a character newly created to promote a plumbing company based in Pennsylvania in the US. He's going to be used to sell the fast, reliable and simply 'super' service that the company provide, and therefore the superhero theme seemed to fit the bill. I've added a few early sketches in the portfolio section so be sure to check them out if you get the chance. Enjoy!
JW Clark the Northamptonshire Groundwork and Construction company needed an illustration to explain a very simple message explaining how to create happy customers. Here's the final artwork which is hopefully very self explanatory. Enjoy!
Here are several versions of the new Bibo logo recently created for the Kibworth based drinks for events, hire company. The basic 'Bibo' in the glass design is used throughout the branding, but the text and layout will change for the different ways the logo will be used. The logo can be used portrait or landscape and as a single colour. If you see it out and about then I would love to know about it. Enjoy!
Can you smell the scent of sweat and deep heat? Can you hear the crunch and groan as bruised bodies strike together? Yes, you've guessed it, rugby is in the air. To celebrate the start of the 6 Nations here are a few Tigers Family cartoon strips you may not have seen. Obviously if you are a big Leicester Tigers fan and turn up to every game you will have already spotted them in the home matchday programmes. If not then you can see every bit of #TigersFamily news and information and every sketched idea right through to finished cartoon strip right here. Here's the last few strips if you missed them. Enjoy!

This new beer from The Langton Brewery will be on sale soon. I've created the pump clip using the same sheep character that first appeared on the Spring Madness beer pump clip. The mad, happy woolly one appears in a different winter snow jumping themed pose this time (Eddie the Eagle eat your heart out!). Below is an image of the final pump clip and also the advert I created to promote the beer which will appear on the front page of the Middleton Wholesale trade catalogue. Let me know what you think or if you see the beer or the artwork out and about in the real world. Enjoy!
Eddie the Eagle got nothing on me!
I've just finished a new pump clip design for The Langton Brewery. The beer is called 'Woodsman' and the axe weilding character featured in the illlustration is based on John Kemp who regularly enjoys a Langton brew. John specialises in creating custom made knives and leather work and also supply's split firewood. You can visit his website at www.knyph.co.uk to see all the wonderful things he creates and supplies. If you see him about then say hello. Enjoy!
Here's a load of my designs and illustrations featuring on beer bottle labels, signs, packaging and pump clips, all promoting The Langton Brewery based in Thorpe Langton, Leicestershire. I took these pics whilst shopping for our family Christmas tree at the farm next to the brewery. An entire corner of the Christmas barn has been transfromed into a mini pub promoting all the fantastic offerings from the brewery. Apologies if some of the pics aren't exactly up to professional standards. A camera phone in a barn doesn't always produce the finest of results :). If you see any of the bottles out and about please send me a pic., I'd love to see them. Happy Christmas and enjoy!
Latest A5 Christmas themed mailer I've created for Pip Consultancy. Not too fussy and straight to the point (just the way I like it). Check out the last Pip mailer and my other 'Graphic Design' examples and as always feel free to let me know what you think. Enjoy!
I've been busy adding new content to the Tigers Family mini site and blog, so please feel free to take a little visit and let me know what you think, and perhaps what else you would like to see. I've added some new sketches and cartoon strips and have plans to add some videos when I manage to finalise all the content I've filmed! Here's the latest cartoon that appeared in last Saturday's Leicester Tigers match day programme. There'll be another one in this weeks programme so be sure to check it out if you're there or visit the Tigers Family blog on Sunday when the strip will be added. Let me know what you think. Enjoy!
