Extreme Skiing

About a week ago I just happened to watch two documentaries on extreme skiing, Blizzard of Aaahhs and  Steep and for my new brief this week I am to create a scale of degrees for skiing. Anyway here's a clip from Blizzard of Aaahhs seeing as its relevant now.

A Countdown

Here's a nice short countdown animation I found on youtube.

Rob Ryan

The paper cuts of Rob Ryan have once again caught my attention.

Seeing Double Development

Here's part of a page I'm working on. On the theme of identical twins, the idea behind this one is twins having to share their possessions, and these two identical boys are fighting over a Teddy.
I'm thinking I may try out digital colouring and adding textures.

Tommy Lee Edwards

I like his colours and tone use. These are from Turf, a book he illustrated for Jonathan Ross.

Lucinda Rogers use of ink

Well, I'm back at University now and back into a heavy back breaking workload. But to get to the point of this post; I've been looking at Lucinda Rogers after Monday's lecture.

I'm liking her use of varying line thickness, it's quite expressive. Also on Monday I was made aware that she's been influenced by Paul Hogarth.

Sneaker Freaker

I've been focusing on sneakers lately, the culture, the looks, the style, collecting. etc. All in aid of our latest, and last of the semester, brief. I've been trying to work out an aesthetic for my exhibition poster and banners.

Here's the resulting work so far.
