Amelia's Magazine

Watch out for issue 09 of the fantastic Amelia's Magazine - out now -  featuring a double page spread by yours truly. The theme was 'a positive future' looking towards an idealistic greener view of a future with no pollution, minimal carbon emissions etc...

This issue was launched with a party at the Pure Grooves record shop in Clerkenwell. My illustration along with several others were on exhibit for the night and a few days after in the shop (I had pride of place in the window - unfortunately my camera died so I don't have a record of it!).

Orange

I've designed some images through YCN for orange's optimistic images project. Each image to demonstrate a word or phrase related to the company. It's planned the images will become part of an online library that will be utilised by orange and the many agencies with whom they work.
Talking of orange I found this amazing link to part of their website... It's very well designed as well as great fun... had me hooked for ages! Make sure you chat to the character called Buzz - you can actually have a conversation with him - it's crazy! I think it's designed by Poke London. Visit unlimited orange!
