The eyes have it
This photography based challenge also got me thinking about eyes. I heard a quote once, something about photography allowing to see through someone else’s eyes. Once is based on colour, the other, a visual pun on a lens. There were thousands on submissions featuring pictures of cameras, so I was happy to do something different. […]
What a hoot
Threadless based a competition around designs for Shutterstock. These were supposed to celebrate photographs and photography. I saw this moon image whilst browsing through, got to thinking about nocturnal creatures and came up with this. I like it, but I like most of the things I do. The fun thing with this design is that […]
Yo lunchbox, hurry it up.
I did an second design for the competiton mentioned in the previous post. I just like Jay and Silent Bob so much I wanted to do something with them. I’ve never seen any tee shirts based around them, so thought of this simple design. Despite my simple designs generally not doing too well, this did […]
Minimalism
A nice guy on Threadless set up a community challenge for Minimalist designs. I quite enjoyed it. As a designer I’m used to having a brief, I think I need that as I have so many ideas I don’t know which ones are stinkers and which ones are less stinky. There was also a coffee […]
“It’s not that I’m lazy; it’s that I just don’t care.”
That’s not true, it just made me smile. Better update for my recent activity, might get a few more hits here soon. Recently been to Glastonbury Festival, and had such a nice relaxing time it’s hard to get back into real life. I wish I could just drift around a festival watching good bands and […]
You’re gonna like these birds
Went to a falconry centre as part of a belated birthday present that got delayed due to personal reasons. I wasn’t that bothered about going, but when I got there it was fantastic, I was 7 again. I used to draw birds of prey as a kid, had videos about birds an watched Kes too […]
Jack of Stripes
Although this was for a music video competition, I wanted to do a few and the white stripes tend to do decent videos. The idea came from Jack, being Jack White, and obviously a playing card too. Worked in a few things from the videos and added a few song references in also. Was chuffed […]
Addicted to blood
“This music video ranked at number 3 on VH1’s Top 20 Videos of the 1980s and was both the first and last video shown on long running UK music programme The Chart Show”. I was a kid when it came out, and as such, when I heard the phrase “vampish women” I misunderstood. Though not […]
It’s been a while
Hello, I’ve been busy doing Threadless stuff, but thought it wise to make an update or two.

I’m talking to myself at night…
Threadless have another competition on at the moment. Do a design based on your favourite video. I think you can enter three designs, but I have loads of favourite video, so many that I just can’t think of what to do. This was my immediate thought, because I like the video to seven nation army. […]
