Logo Decider - Vote

Hi guys.


Just working on my website and branding of my business and well times come for your help. So I have designed two logos, each reflecting the two different areas I specialise in, that being Graphic Design and Illustration. I also aim to split my website into two sections as well. I was not sure if to have both the logos for each section or just use the one. So your help would be massively appreciated.

Canvas painting commission

I have been busy in the studio last week painting a canvas commission. I was commissioned to paint Four grandchildren in these paintings in black and white, and in the style that was chosen. As all children had blue eyes I brought this feature out. The set of four canvases were painted in acrylic. 

I have taken photos of the progression of the paintings to show the production from drawing to the final paintings. If you would be interested in having a painting commissioned feel free to get in contact.

Design Comp

Here is my design for the Hugo Boss Creative competition. The theme was to look at Stencil art and the city of Berlin. I have created a stencil that is both bold and sexy to capture the essence of both Hugo Boss fragrance and graffiti in Berlin. Check it out and vote for me. Deadline for voting is before the 16th May 2011.
