St Michael's Hospice - Venus Challenge T-shirt 2011

 

I have recently designed this years St.Michael's Hospice Venus Challenge T-Shirt, as I volunteer for them by helping out with some design work. I was really excited about designing the T-Shirt because I took part in the event last year and will be taking part this friday too, so couldn't wait to see my design on 1,500 T-shirts. I made it quite different from last years design as they were looking to change the design and also to celebrate the 5 year anniversary of the event. The hospice is very close to my heart as they care for a lot of unwell people and the event is a fantastic way to help the charity raise lots of money to take care of their patients and their families. Theres still time to take part so register today:  http://www.st-michaels-hospice.org.uk/latest-news/events/venus-challenge-2011

Summer Show 2011

These are the two pieces I put up for our Summer Show, they are quick off prints which are graphic illustrations of characters from a short story called The Half-Skinned Steer. This was one of my self initiated projects and I chose to develop a project I did in the first year as I really enjoyed doing it and was different to the graphics I am used to doing. The quality of the images aren't great as they are photographs from the show.

Don't Panic

Annoying words

After spending a whole day doing letter press these are my posters of annoying/hated words, I am now going to develop the idea further and see what I can create digitally. This is supposed to be for the final show but I am not 100% what I actually want to show just yet.

Love/Hate Photographs

These are the final photographs from the Love/Hate project, the bottom photographs were taken from the Art 360 shop. Art 360 was a shop that are class had the opportunity to show and sell our work in, so I decided to make 8 cushions with the Love/Hate design on them, on the front is the Yummy design and on the bag is a multiple pattern of Cupcake and Love.

Measure Project

 

For this project we had to create an info graphic on anything we wanted, so I decided to measure Facebook as it is so popular. I chose to recreate a Facebook home page where the status' were facts about the site. This project was challenging because after doing a survey I then had to create all the symbols and type from scratch and it had to look the same as the original site.

Marks and Spencer Plan A

This is my project for Marks and Spencer Plan A, where we were asked to make a campaign to get more of the public involved in Plan A. So i decided to make people more aware of their Oxfam and Marks and Spencer clothes exchange, by making a coat of cash on a manikin which will be placed in store where people will think it is real money when in fact it is a recreation of a five pound note and on the back will be information where you can go and get a five pound voucher by donating your old Marks and Spencer clothing to Oxfam.

love/hate mug

Here is the mug i got printed for my love/hate project, just have to make the packaging now...

Body shop photos!

Today i have taken some close up photographs of some flowers and plants for the body shop brief, where we have been asked to design packaging for four of their products that incorporate the five things they stand for. These are just a couple of my photographs but i wanted to use bright colours and close up shots and then i will use them in my designs.
