Helen Lang works with San Francisco based Modern Twist to create designs for their baby and kids range.
Commissioned to supply four animal designs to be used on children's table mats and bibs, and a sea pattern for another range, Helen used her signature lines to produce these fun and friendly products. She says "This company has been great to work with. The products are great to touch and use."

Shopaholic

Capricho Magazine commission Natalia Sanabria to create these 'shopaholic illustrations'.
A slight diversion from her usual subject matter, Natalia says "It turned out really good and shows another side of me apart from drawing fashion models".

PanToy

Turine Tran works with PanToy in Taiwan to create a toy design.

The brief was to make a character of a little boy around six years old wearing a wolf baby suit. Turine took inspiration from the character Max in Maurice Sendak's 'Where the Wild Things Are', and then loaded her design with cool accessories such as a backpack, skateboard and a lollipop gun. The final piece is now a cute toy, with Turine's poster art as promotion. She says of the commission "It was a lovely, fun project, and I'm totally in love with the toy at the end!"

Lang is one of the finest*

Helen Lang works on several product and packaging concepts for the Tesco finest* range.
Commissioned by P&W London, Helen created the hand lettering for three dipping oils and rapeseed oil. She says "The brief was to make it look hand rendered as though someone had created their own infusions and written on the labels as a home cook would do." More products with Helen's work will be released soon.

Pikka Pikka

Chrissy Lau is commissioned by Pikka Pikka to develop a series of patterns for their micro fibre cleaning cloths for spectacles. 
Chrissy was asked to create whimsical and endearing designs and ones that would appeal to a younger audience. The results are five artworks, which have proved to be incredibly popular.
Simon Kuong of Pikka Pikka said of Chrissy's work "I came across Chrissy's work on the Internet and was instantly attracted to her unique style and the amount of detail in her art. Her communication is timely and her work has won us many great comments from our customers. It is often said success is not only to rely on one's talent but more importantly attitude, and Chrissy has shown she has both. I wish her every success and would highly recommend her as an artist and illustrator."

Cheers Shannon!

Shannon at the event

Shannon Toth proudly holds a bottle of beer adorned with her 'Mascarilla' art!
The Collective Arts Brewery in Toronto, Ontario hold regular contests for artists to have their art on a beer label, with the belief of "raising the creative consciousness by linking art and artists with the sociability of beer. This collaboration extends from visual art to music and film." Shannon's striking image of the lady in the skull mask won the attention of the brewery, and now drinkers can enjoy her art whilst downing their beer!

India on Glass

Shailesh Khandeparkar's design for glass brings together pattern, shape and colour with much confidence. He was asked to work as art director and illustrator for this commission from a glass company in India who wanted to promote the Indian characters and visuals so typical of the country. Choosing The Mughal King of India as the main focus of the artwork, Shailesh's final piece will look stunning on the glassware.
