A very exciting commission! I was lucky enough to illustration the 2010 Humana Festival of New American Plays poster. Artists who have designed the poster in the past include such incredible artists as Wiktor Sadowski, Brian Cronin, Istvan Orosz, Chip Kidd, The Heads of State, Tomer Hanuka and, most recent, Julien Pacaud.
A fantastic commission from start to finish. A very open brief and very encouraging and creative art direction from Matt Dobson.

I’ve included some other designs and variations on the theme from earlier drafts.

I was asked to design Ted Baker’s Christmas window 2009. The witty idea was from the fantastic Art Direction team at Ted Baker – Neil O’Rourke and Dave Uprichard who odid an amazing job to put this all together. It was an animated cut-out and appeared in over 50 stored worldwide.

An early sketch showing Santa skipping.

A promotional ‘Thumb War’ card associated with the project.

This is a full-page and poster for the YMCA Annual Golf Tournament – which encourages children to put their cell-phones down and get active. I love the idea, which was the brain-child of Angee Murray and team at Saatchi & Saatchi LA.
