Like a Kenneth Anger Primary school project.
My daughter was doing some fantastic craft recently. When tidying up I spotted this, placed it on a piece of red paper and took a picture.
The Glam devil is now spread around thank you cards and boxes.

Last nights Sherlock was great. I had a pen and paper to hand. Moriaty was impossible to draw, whereas my scrawls of Dr.Watson made him look even more depressed than he was on the screen. I’ve tarted it up in photoshop a bit to give it some depth.
Drawn while watching the Hound of the Baskervilles last night.
Finished off on the bus this morning.
Mr Cumberbatch must have his own hair twirler this season.
It is obviously brilliant.
As was the writing, acting, lighting, camera sets etc.
Here’s some earlier Sherlocks:

On Bond Street, The Alexander McQueen store.
I bought some pickles from Fortnum & Mason instead.
Broken crockery corsets are easy wash, but didn’t go with any of my shoes.
The coloured blocks are where the photos of children were.
A six column grid was used with Stones Green Ginger wine and Radio 4 comedy.

Some (non product based) frames from a storyboard
of a beauty product ad Brand Electioneering are making.
Thanks to my model (Tricia from the adjacent office)
I didn’t have to use to much imagination.
A quick photo shoot, then out with the tracing paper
and my trusty Pentel Color Brush #101 FR.
Then these brush sketches were photographed
and shadows added in InDesign.
This took some time to get the scrollwork right.
Click to get a closer look as it looks a bit pathetic small.
It’s getting printed on banknote style paper.
Here’s a logo I’ve done for a friend of mine.
She makes beautiful scarves.
Her surname is Thorpe.
The type was designed to have a handmade feel. Strong and loud, with a quirk.
I used Wyndham Compressed as the starting point.

The country of manufacture and washing instructions, in proper Italian as well as our mother tongue:
The swing tag. Featuring a textile design called Lacy Love.
The colour inspiration was the background of a photo of Audry Hepburn.
David Reeves needed a website.
The original was holding page:

Then another page was added when you clicked anywhere on the main page:

This was very simple and just about did the job in a very quiet way.
After a while cloth logos came along which along with the email were made into buttons.
A very popular and content rich blog was made, a good lookbook page was founded and a nice facebook page was conceived.
These prompted a new look.
Originally it had a fun animation, but due to the quality restrictions inherent in the file format, this had to go. It’s worth a look though.
The new site is just a nice list of links with the range of masterful English tailoring options and a list of the top cloth manufacturers that he uses. All these are buttons (apart from the phone for obvious reasons). My knowledge of html and Dreamweaver is now slightly bigger. Anyway here it is in it’s unflashy glory:

My daughter wanted a pumpkin cake,
I wanted to do a white chocolate skull with jelly brains – another time.
Ingredients:
Cream and large white choc buttons for the inside and seeds
Home made orange dyed sponge for the flesh stuck with raspberry jam
Butter icing skin dyed bright orange
Colour icing for the tendrils eyes blood etc
I’m reading about the Maya at the moment so that might explain the malevolent aspect.
This came about around designing logos and packaging for clients.
I wanted something feminine and modular, a typeface where letterforms interacted with each other but didn’t touch too much, keeping their readability.
As for influences, there’s the First Roxy Music album (which didn’t have the single ‘Virginia Plain’ on it originally), Rio 6 cigar packets, Herbert Bayer as a lady, Herb Lubalin & Avant Garde magazine, the flight of bees, vinyl record grooves, Veronica Lakes hair, Marine Ices, Max & Sally kids stories and Mr Freedom.
I’m thinking about capital letters…
Aliceson is a very good modern artist. She is also my sister.
See http://www.aliceson.co.uk/ for work by her.
Margate with a bit of art would be a great day out.
For this flyer she wanted the image and some fairground type for the (a)musements logo.
I wanted to make the flyer look like an old film title sequence; Aliceson’s work usually involves film in some way.

The Square is a neat piece of technology available in America.
Again with the pun. Again with classy and simple.
