I am an illustrator and graphic designer based in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex, with over 14 years of experience in the printing industry and exhibition my artwork. I have just completed my degree in graphic design and have set up a joint studio with my partner, called Shed Certified. Etsy Shop now open (etsy.com/shop/shedcertified).
Projects
- Freese Watches and the Freese 53We are proud to have been working closely with Simon Freese Watches at our studio and his workshop to design and print the dial for his latest watch the Freese 53. This watch was inspired by by the military watches of days past, such as the Omega 53 and the Smiths W10. What makes the new Freese 53 unusual is that the dial, along with many other parts are totally made in our own workshops in the UK. Here you can see a rough sketch that we followed when doing the graphic design work for the dial
- Graphic design work for Simon Freese Watchmakers and Freese WatchesIdeas and finished logo designs for the two different Freese companies. I was asked to produce a logo for Simon Freese watchmakers and to produce a postcard to advertise the new watch collection for Freese Watches. I was given a brief to work from that included colours that he required etc. I am also now creating the dials for Freese Watches although these are down to a very specific brief of what is required.
- Penguin Student Design AwardsThese 3 book covers were my entrance for the Penguin Student Design Awards, (Goodnight Mister Tom, The Night Manager and A Short History Of Nearly Everything). I worked with promarker pens for the hand-drawn illustrations and used Photoshop and InDesign to bring all of the elements together.
