Personal Identity and Business Cards

For Uni we have been developing our own personal identity in the form of a logo and business card. My logo is a simplified version of my signature, where it will be easy for me to either sign or apply this mark onto images, forms and print material. For my business cards I wanted to crate a template that could be modified easily with new colours and images; for now I have two different options to chose from.

Tory and Timmy Character Design

These are my character design sheets for the twins, Tory and Timmy. These designs show the twins in different poses and with different facial expressions to portray the personality of the characters. I am currently in the process of developing a children's picture book where the twins go for an adventure in an imaginary land. I'll be posting more about this as I complete the work!

Here are some more illustrations from early 2012, completed for a university project on media and technique. We were required to present different subjects using a range of media, including: coloured pencil, collage, ink and lino carving.

Still Life in Acrylic Paint

Here is a series of paintings from early 2012, using the same composition to explore colour combinations and tonal values. This still life consists of an eggplant, tomato and egg. The first painting shows a monochromatic colour scale, only looking at the tonal values of the objects. The next is harmonious, using the cool colours of blue, green and yellow. The complementary painting is using the opposite colours of purple and yellow; and finally the last painting is using a limited colour palate.

And, yes. The elves have chubby bottoms.
