TYPOHOLIC FROM VICTIONARY

.....................................................................................................................................

I was fortunate enough to be asked to contribute to this beautiful book from Victionary titled 'Typoholic' which came through the post the other day. 


My Alphabet can be seen next to a number of excellent pieces of work from top creatives that makes this book a hub for inspiration and well worth a look.


For those of you who are a little partial to my Alphabet, it is currently being shown in it's entirety at the London office of CHI & Partners and can also be purchased as a limited edition print from my online store.

Good trip!

This post is quite a personal one but something that I wanted to share.

Two of my flat mates recently moved out to start their travelling adventure, and as a part of their leaving party I thought that I would make them a banner as bit of a surprise.

It was a great excuse to practice some script embellishment and to do something special for two people that I care about deeply.

Best of luck Marc and Agustina!

HAND MADE TYPE

I was pleasantly surprised on the weekend when looking through some lovely books in Foyles and found one of my pieces that I contributed towards Charlotte Rivers's 'Hand Made Type'. An early type experiment can be seen in one of the 'gallery' sections, showcasing various pieces of work.

The book is a good source of inspiration for those of you who enjoy all things type related and there are some tutorials by a number of creatives that should help the creation of many new pieces.

REPETITION: 'AND'

Continuing my promise for this week here is the second installment of the Repetition series, or the fourth most used word in the English language. As you may have guessed by now I have taken inspiration from wooden printing blocks which remains apparent throughout this body of work.

This series has been a long time coming, I have illustrated the five most commonly used words in the English language. I originally began work on the series for the Crawley Wordfest, drawing in the window of the gallery the fourth most used word which you all can see tomorrow. I will be aiming to you you the entire series as the week unfolds.
