DAY OF THE DEAD.

not the movie, the festival. i got confused, and there are similarities.

The idea behind these was to create some sort of promotional material or items for our festival of choice. Rather than just create an A2 poster, i had the idea of making some designs for beer mats or something. The characters represented are all a part of the festival in some way. If you don't know much about the festival, have a read, its pretty fascinating. Imagine celebrating our dead loved ones in that way.

So i haven't uploaded anything for months. Half because i lost my printer power cable and half because i haven't done much good work. But here is a few choice things from the past term:

one of the final pieces for a project on newspaper editorial illustrations. basically it's Gordon Brown shooting the man from the Halifax advert. some comment about cutting the money going to bankers.

i thought it was really funny but i was the only one.
