EVEN MORE TEE SHIRT COMP WORK!

Threadless are running a comp to design shirts based on US Colleges (or universities) sports mascots. I original chose LSU (Louisiana State) Mike the Tiger (on the right) and recoloured for the Auburn Tigers (on the left). Today I did the bear in the middle for UCLA. Hope you like them.

My design Posthumous Pale Ale has been reprinted at Shirt.Woot.com, this time on hoodies! Grab one today, as they are limited edition, for only US$25!! CHEAP!

AMERICAN GODS online exhibtion.

I was very honoured when the very motivated and resourceful blog SUPERPUNCH asked me to submit a piece for their homage to Neil Gaiman's book AMERICAN GODS. Above I have posted my original sketch, as well as my final coloured piece of my chosen god KALI.

WATER COLOURS!

Here's my latest work that I had an absolute blast doing. It's been so long since I did some water colour work!
The client was Sydney's Child magazine, a free parenting magazine that also distributes in issues as Brisbane's, Melbourne's Child, etc.
The brief was to visually explore the challenges of children 'overcoming adversity' today, wether they have a disability, are gifted and so forth. (most of this is explained in bylines on the right, where the 'greenery' is.) The idea of a child being carried up a mountain was given to me by the art director, and so I ran with that. I hope you like it.

While I can't publish any actual work til it is released, I can publish my competition stuff. Here's a wine label (yes, the wine IS called TIGER BLOOD, and no, it's not Charlie Sheen's vineyard..) for the new wine label design comp site WINE COUTURE. Not a big fan of the name, but it challenge me to do something with a serious feel as opposed to a parody. Tiger's stripes are represented by a stylised circulatory system, and the tigers head was drawn in graphite and finished in photoshop. I hope you like it.

Of course, ANOTHER competetion entry! Hey, I got to stay productive when I don't have work on the table right?? This time it's for Threadless's 'Design a Temporary Tattoo' comp. Basically Threadless have a yearly meet-up of designers in Chicago. This year they want a temp tattoo for the event, winner gets flights to Chicago and accommodation . Their new tagline is 'MAKE GREAT TOGETHER', and I based some of the imagery on a handful of their chicken themed shirts. Keep your fingers crossed for me ok!!

SYMETRICWOLF, my favorite band.

Yet another tee shirt competition sub, this time at my old friends at DESIGN BY HUMANS. I wantes to do this idea a while ago for a tee sub but never got round to it. Was fun to do, and I've included some reference and progress above also. The original wolf drawing is half drawn, and flipped for perfect symmetry. SYMETRICWOLF is not a real band btw.
