Be Bar & Club

I was given complete freedom to create an identity for a Bournemouth bar and club. The venue is marketed towards women being

both individual and together. I commissioned a mural inside the venue, created a logo, website and print material.

Mobile Phone Illustration

I set myself a brief to come up with a mobile phone illustration that boasts one of the phones features. I created the phone from scratch in Photoshop. I then chose to

focus the illustration around a satellite navigation system. This is a personal favourite as it captures my passion for realism with a commercial approach.

An Audience with the Red Arrows

Charity projects are always fun to get involved with. Not only do I get to have more freedom with what I create - I also get to produce work for big names and boost my 

portfolio. Above is some identity for an event, presented by The Round Tables Childrens Wish and Parliament Communications.

Gatecrasher

I was asked to create a pitch for Gatecrasher Nightclubs in order to gain a contract for 2009. For the pitch, I organised & directed a

photo shoot. I took some of the best shots & created a number of montage's. Created using Illustrator and Photoshop.

New Horizons Rebrand

Sue Terry is a successful lifestyle coach who's image needed to match the quality of her service. I created a colour pallet that reflected her

personality, whilst looking inviting and friendly. I went on to construct a logo, business card A5 flyer and a one page website.

Cat Nickless Album Cover

An illustration for a musicians album cover. I started by hand drawing the robin in pencil then, using

Photoshop, added depth using numerous brushes. Finally I added a stitched effect illustration.

Care Home Training

I was asked to come up with a fresh new look for a start up business. I started by creating a colour & font pallet. From here I was able to create a 

logo. A simple, two page website completed the package and gave this business an online presence.
