Ahoy!

Ahoy!

A friend at work asked me if I could put together a pirate themed invitation for her little boys birthday party… this was the result!

Hi all, so I’ve been asked recently what program I design on – I shall unveil the truth… tis CorelDraw! For all you haters out there, I will forever be a die-hard fan of this software, there is very little it can’t do, if only one knows how to use it – now now, I realize there are some things (debatebly) more suited to Illustrator, so that’s my next project, taking out AI and mastering it!

Here’s a sneak peak of my website… the home page! Let me know what you all think!

Designed this a while ago, seems I’m digging into my archives here… this was for someone who wanted the most minimalistic ‘this-says-nothing-about-what-i-do’ business card… worked for him!

I designed this about 4 years ago… while I was helping out at my Uncle’s printing place – found a picture of the final product on the actual shop, nostalgia, I’ve come a long way 🙂

I did this a while ago for a friend’s birthday party – tried to keep the gaming theme subtle, seems it was a success! This is the front 🙂

I simply love upgrading an old design (or bad design at that)… giving a business an identity just gives me a kick! This lovely lady is in the business of guess… sunglasses! Could you tell from the original card? Not so much! The original looked like a spa? With some pretty horrid colours, I wouldn’t go there that’s for sure! Now her card makes sense… and although it can sometimes be tacky to use direct product imagery in a logo – if used cleverly it creates a funky thought-of vibe without the kitsch attached to it!
