Happy as Aimee Illustration

Muchuu!

A Friend of mine Tom, a photographer, approached me and asked me to do a kind of collaboration with him. He was doing a photo shoot for a new band called Muchuu. He wanted some illustrations to accompany the photos he had already taken.

The images were very dark, so i decided that the illustrations would be better done in white. They were also taken outside, which gave me a lot of ideas of what I could do with them. I played with idea of nocturnal animals, day time/night time, but in the end i went with the theme of outside/inside. Using basic outlines created by the 'outside' objects i drew some 'inside' objects and lay them on top.

Origami Catalogue

This is a folding Catalogue i Made for Mouldy Loaf. It works like one those origami folding games you'd make as a kid. i wish i knew what the official name was! haha.

feel fee to print it out, and try making one for yourself. :)

Urban Outfitters

At my Final Degree Show i was approached by Urban outfitters, they asked if i'd like to have some of my work up in their store! To which i replied.. "Of Course!" They'd asked my friend James too (he's a phtographer), and it went really well! I used my 'Inspirational Hair' Images, but played around with the colour schemes, made them brighter and such, to fit in more with the Aesthetic of the shop.

Something to inspire :)

Just wanted to share this real nice stuff, lovely ideas!

i particularly like the work of Peter Callesen and Elisa Mora (though anyone who knows me knows i cant resist a good fold or cut of paper! haha)

The work on here by Brian Dettmer, Su Blackwell and Ingrid Siliakus is probably more Artist Book Relevent, but this whole page in general is quite inspiring.

Liverpool Artists Book Fair June '09

Last weekend was the Liverpool Artists Book Fair at A Foundation. We had a stall there and looked so good! having more new books to sell really made our table look brillant. There were about 9 students who had stock on the table, selling books badges and prints, and we had a good sell (particularly Jat!!)!

I was there manning the stall on the Sunday, and Jat the saturday. In comparison to Leeds and Bristol it wasn't very busy, but despite that it was quite successful. There was always a steady stream of people showing interest and buying. Unfortunately this also meant that being the only one to watch the table, i only had a brief chance to have look round. (though that was probably best for my pennies.. we all know I'm a sucker for little cute things, and as usual there was plenty around). But as i said, i did have a chance to have a little look, and i met a few new people there too, as well as catching up with some of the usual crowd. There was some absolutely stunning work there!! It was really inspiring!

Here are a few pictures from the fair...
