Whilst doing a bit of research for the Mixed Special website, I came across the site and catalogue for the “Brighton Graphic Design & Illustration 2011 Graduate Show”. This site is fairly standard but nice, however i was particularly impressed with the catalogue. It uses clean simple design coupled with their ident to keep a big (160page) book still compelling to view, and not become tedious through predicable layout.
“CMYRGB is a series of 24 gradient color combinations which exist simultaneously as digital files and physical objects. The digital versions are looping 3 second GIF animations, while the physical counterparts are lenticular prints suspended in Lucite enclosures. The gradient palette is based on the subtractive and additive color systems cyan-magenta-yellow and red-green-blue.”

I have recently been trying to get used to working with Adobe Illustrator, and since starting this i have become far more aware of the benefits of vector work. I don’t ever intend to get rid of my hand-drawn and photoshop work (hopefully combine them) but I have noticed I’m beginning to appreciate clean graphic images such as this from Part & Parcel.

I enjoy how elements of these editorials have broken out of the set border, this may be something to consider for Guardian work

Makes me want to try painting up some of my drawings. I would know how to execute this through photoshop, but maybe the crispness isn’t needed. Nothing wrong with a bit of mess every so often

Everything about this work is really nice. A brilliant mixture of hand rendered and digital collages, using multiple reproductions of images.
Some pretty crazy things going on from this lady. Nice though and a very interesting use of colour, mixing hand drawn pieces with computer colouring techniques.

Really interesting use of textures and shapes in these paintings. I really appreciate that they are all hand crafted on a huge scale (normally filling the wall). Perhaps i could try to introduce more unedited hand crafted textures into my work.
