Art of Well-Being

Tired of all this negativity in the world? Tim Bradford has the all-positive antidote in the form of this cheery self-initiated piece.
Entitled ‘Wear Shorts More’, the piece is “inspired by a positive thinking attitude and the effect it can have on our well-being, hopefully helping keep us all afloat in these times of crisis!”

Bound for Glory

The glorious scene of running cats and dogs will feature extensively in Royal Canin's nationwide campaign, which will mainly comprise of large outdoor posters.

How Ritz Get Made

This magnificently comical animation for the new Ritz Crackers website comes via the talented Katmo team, who were commissioned by CoCo Weir at JWT for Ritz.
The brief was to show the stages of the production process in a humorous factory scene populated with characters who are passionate about what they do. Says Katmo: "The animation loops, which was a bit of a challenge to get all machines, rollers, boxes, biscuits and movements in sync. A great challenge and great fun to do."Watch the animation.

Old Iraq, New Iraq

Contrasting the old and the new is Ian Naylor and this recent cover image for MEED magazine.
Ian’s powerful design illustrates the rebuilding of Iraq’s infrastructure after the invasion, by contrasting a foreground of twisted material, against a map of the country through which we see the new Iraq within.

Unlikely Wrestling Match

Ben Tallon has just completed round 1 in his “Versus” series — a personal series of hand-drawn posters for unlikely wrestling matches, inspired, explains Ben, “by my love of sport, mainly Professional Wrestling!”
Ben’s humorous approach, superb drawing skills and command of typography makes for a quirky, slightly naive feel. Up-coming matches include: Orton v Helmsley (Wrestlemania 25), Obama v Clinton (race v sex challenge) and Ian Brown v Ricky Hatton.

Flair Winner Bertrand

Bertrand Le Pautremat is the proud winner of May’s Flair competition for illustrators on Creativematch.

Zarafa by Britt Spencer

This month sees the publication of “Zarafa”— Britt Spencer’s third children's book
Zarafa, follows the adventures of a giraffe that travels all the way from Egypt to Paris to meet the King. Explains Britt: “The publisher Philomel [an imprint of Penguin] have given me a lot of creative freedom, but I am still bound by the comments and suggestions from the great team of Art Directors and Editors, who have definitely helped guide the book to better directions”

With Friends Like Tanja........

Tanja Szekessy's stand-out illustration work has been unleashed on six full-page images, and one front cover, for DAS MAGAZIN's December issue. With art direction from Inka Baron, and the theme of "friends" as the basic brief, Tanja's humorous and warmly odd illustrations each represents well-known friendships or relationships - such as the Three Musketeers, the Seven Dwarfs, and the girlie-crowd from "Sex & The City" - albeit without showing the original scenes or characters.

Ella's Big Yellow Taxi

Out now is "Anybody Out There" a novel by Marian Keyes, with a front cover by our very own Ella Tjader. Commissioned by Nikki Dupin at Penguin the brief was to show a swarm of beautiful butterflies and a yellow NY cab with a silhouette of a woman in the back seat. Pitching against three other artists, not only did Ella win the job, but her coloured rough was approved for the final art without changes!

Paper Artist Bertand Le Pautremat

New to our already-fabulous hub of artistic talent comes the highly-gifted and well-known paper artist Bertand Le Pautremat. His deceptively-clever use of paper has a distinct and refreshing look, and has already featured widely in advertising, educational books and annual reports.

Hunt Gets Shirty

Graniph; a design company based in Japan have selected Nadia Hunt’s sensational images to liven their tees. Nadia was approached after her work was spotted in Marie Claire UK and Semipermanent Book and now her work can be seen splashed across the chests of anyone who enjoys original art on their clothes. At a very affordable price, the limited edition shirts are glam and fun.

Biker Daviz

Vintage bikes get animated by Paul Daviz in his recent commission for Fanatic Scooters; a shop in Bristol which imports reconditioned classic Vespas and Lambrettas from India. The final animation is a cool intro to the shop’s website showing quirky characters driving their funky machines. Brrrmmmmm!

Bag Lady Sarah

The incomparable Sarah Beetson has sold the rights for the US company Littlearth to use one of her illustrations on one of their very wonderful Fender bags. Retailing at $280 a piece, we are sure her design will sit very comfortably on these particularly cool accessories! Littlearth discovered Sarah through our site.

The McGreg

Commissioned by Christine DeBlangy at Leo Burnett, Greg Becker has created artwork for bus shelter ads, tube and restaurant posters for the McDonalds "McFlurry". His brief was to draw a nice big snowy backdrop with sky colours to match the McFlurry's packaging. Greg stayed quite close to the brief, but at the last minute added a robin (a not too well fed robin) which was happily accepted.
