Apple Orphanage

Many apologies for the lack of posting of late!  I have been busy setting up a new company that produces cider, apple juice and made wines, with my boyfriend Will Faulds.  Its based, as we are, on the Isle of Man and is called Apple Orphanage Co Ltd (read more on our website to find out why!).  It's been great fun, though hectic setting it all up, and we still have some way to go before we're making and selling produce regularly.  Both Will and I have been doing the design and artwork for it, so here a few tidbits that I've contributed.

Young people with faces

So few posts recently! Must try harder! A Canadian band got in touch with me a few months ago asking me to do some artwork for their debut album "Young People with Faces". As is typical with these sorts of requests, they didn't follow it up and I haven't heard from them since their initial interest. However the album name stuck in my head and while pondering it the other day I drew this. A little bit of photography collage you say? Ooh how new and refreshing.

New business cards

Hello folk, sorry I've not posted anything this week - I have been going all out designing my up and coming website - exciting!   It should be going live fairly soon - I'll keep you posted.  Anyway, in the meantime here's a little promotional/business card I made up this week.  Any feedback would be much appreciated as this is only a test run (I've only got 27 printed so far, so changes can be made!).  Bye now.

Oh you trendy things!

A 'homage' to all those uber fashionable men out there.  Let us all be a little bit more fashionable everyday.  Today I wore flip flops.

Only a War can save Brown now....

I've decided that once a week I will find an editorial article to illustrate.  This week, Charlie Brooker's graphically described account of Gordon Brown's descent into political doom!  Click title to read full article.
