I'm currently studying for my Final Major Project for my FD 2nd year, and I've got some ideas based on the project I did last year which resulted in Give Peas A Chance. I had some ideas which didn't get used, but have a lot of design potential and will hopefully show a style of humour I want to develop.
I've got some projects in mind to complete over the summer as well, including a step into cartoon animation. Anyone who knows me knows about my sense of humour and my love of cartoons, so thinking about a future illustration career, I want to do something connected to cartoons.
As the title says, watch this space!
At Plymouth College of Art at the moment, there is an exhibition of work from artists from the Association of Illustrators, and throughout the exhibition, our course has been running "The Illustration Bureau", a stall that gives Illustration students the chance to promote their work in the local community.
At first, I didn't have anything for the Bureau, but looking at the success that other people were having with their work, I decided to put forward a pack of badges with a series of different bears that I've been working on in my chosen cartoon style. I've been selling a pack of four; panda, polar, grizzly and black; for £1.50. I made one pack to begin with, and it sold within thirty seconds, so I've made more before the Bureau shuts after the Easter holidays.
