Some of my work

I have just finished some work for the Pro Make Up Shop, who produce disposable make up brushes and mascara wand. Each product had it's own name for which I had to design unique logo expressing what each brush did.
The first few came easily but with 13 to finish it actually became quite hard. There were also the extra constraints of limited space and only using black and white to consider which added to the challenge.
All in all though it was quite god fun. Above are the first four and the rest will be added to my website in the coming days/weeks. I would love to hear what you think.

Love, love, love

I was searching eBay today and found all these amazing salt and pepper shakers. I think they're awesome and so much fun. I might have to start
a collection!

New Studio/Mark Howe

I share my studio space in Scrutton Street with some really cool people but we have just been told the building has been sold and we have to move! Lucky the five of us have decided to stick together so now I'm quite excited. We are going to decorate and make it a really inspiring enviroment.
I have always wanted a desk similar to the one above. Loads of colour and interesting things to look at. This actually belongs to Mark Howe, whose website I have just found. His work is amazing, I might even buy some for our new wall.

Cellar Door vintage jumble sale

My good friend Kerri is starting a vintage inspired ethical fashion company.
This weekend she had her first sale at a vintage jumble sale in East London. She had so much cool stuff and displayed it so well. I was both impressed & proud. I bought the little cuckoo clock which I adore and a sweet little mirror.
Unfotunately people missed out as hardly anyone turned up, which was a bit of a dissapointment
but she managed to sell a few bits to the bar staff and me!
Have a look at her website (which I designed) http://www.cellar-door.co.uk to see more of her stuff and to find out where to buy.

I don't know what to call this blog.

I found this when searching through google for 'typographic illustrations' for a job I'm working on. It's really effective & looks really good. The best things are always simple.
