Otter Spotter!

The brief was to design something that would be applied to a canal wall in Digbeth. I decided to do mine about otters, and how the Canal & River Trust are trying to re-introduce them to our canals. Along with the canal wall, I decided to create some posters and an information leaflet to help promote it and provide further information.

First I did some illustrations using watercolours. It's been too long since I've been able to use these for a project, and I didn't realise how much I missed drawing. Unfortunately being on a graphic design course doesn't really allow me to illustrate.

Bite Me

For a group University project last year, we were given the brief to come up with a product which we could sell and/or promote in an exhibition. We decided to create a student friendly cookbook, with quick and easy recipes, as well as a crate packed with kitchen essentials which they could win in a raffle.

Thumbelina

Back in my Foundation Year, for my final project I decided to illustrate Thumbelina by Hans Christian Andersen. I absolutely love children stories. Even though I am 20 year old now, I still love them! I really related to the story Thumbelina, of a tiny girl who explores the world, as I used to be the smallest in my class and got picked on a bit for that. 

The Start of A New Chapter

Finally going to start posting my work and what I'm doing on this site. I've still got a few things to do to this website & blog but I really want to get started and used to posting again, it's been a while. So to start...
