Today’s personal project ✌️ I got my first pair of @birkenstock clogs this week. Holy guacamole are they comfortable 😳 they have not left my feet 🐾 #birkenstockboston #birkenstock #stocksandsocks #clogs #gouache #paint #analogue #analoguedesign #holbein #holbeingouache #holyguacamole 
A study of Toulouse’s ‘Eldorado’ poster (not original, this is a study only) 🎨 currently learning how to use gouache I’ve noticed recently a lot of designers getting called out for copying others. In my opinion there are two kinds of copying: 1) straight up plagiarism, where you’re profiting off of someone else’s work and 2) studying, where you’re copying and scrutinising others’ work for the purpose of learning. Scenario number one is never acceptable, but scenario number two is an act that most (if not all) of history’s great artists have practised. If you do study to learn, I would encourage you to study a wide range of creatives’ work - not only those in your field - and certainly don’t try to sell a study as your own work. This particular study was produced to educate me on the work of a painter I admire, and to open my mind to new possibilities in design. #toulouse #artnouveau #painting #holbein #holbeingouache #gouache #travelerscompany #travelersnotebook #artanddesign #art 
A very silly personal project based on @fender ‘s Parallel Universe series of guitars 🎸✌️ Cheeky disclaimer: this was not a paid job and is not for sale. #fender #fenderparalleluniverse #paralleluniverse #illustration #lettering #customtype #cowboy #yeehaw 
Perky plant and @aceandtate specs 🥸✌️ #shapes #gouache #shapestudies #holbien #holbiengouache #abstractish #black #travelerscompany #travelersnotebook #plant #flower 
A slightly sad looking plant 🥀 or maybe it’s just shy #shapestudy #shapes #design #holbein #holbeingouache #travellersnotebook #travellersco 
Some more silliness from my Yellowbelly Outdoor Co project ✌️ no fonts to see here #yellowbelly #patagonia #outdoors #nature #handlettered #illustration #hat #copywriting 
Good morning ✌️ here are some studies based on random objects around my studio. This plant is called a ‘stookie’, which I thought was a fun word 🌵 #abstract #shapestudies #stookieplant #stookie #travellersnotebook #travellersco #rotring #gouache #studying 
Some weird and wonky shape studies Inspired by @zwartekoffie recently to dig a little deeper into the fundamentals - go peep his work if you haven’t already! ✌️ #design #graphicdesign #shapes #shapestudies #weird #wonky #gouache #blackgouache 
Another hat? Yes, another hat. #hat #hatdesign #baseballhat #cap #yellowbelly #design #outdoorco 
It’s a hat for your head (not for your feet) 🧢 #yellow #yellowbelly #design #illustrationorsomething 
I’m like 99% certain I saw a lynx today (the big cat kind, not the deodorant) but apparently they’re endangered in Korea so I guess maybe it was just a particularly large cat? I don’t know. Anyway I used that mental image as a reference for this questionable drawing. #lynx #southkorea #mentalphoto #illustration #스라소니 #삽화 
A recent logo concept for a coastal church in the UK. Hand lettered to communicate that ‘weird artsy fartsy’ vibe ✌️ #churchlogo #logodesign #artsyfartsy #whatsinthatcommunionwine 
Peaks and troughs - a pattern I designed to communicate the urge to constantly be experimenting. Every peak and trough in the pattern is slightly different from the last, but you can see over time that there’s a pattern - something about the work that’s constant. Or it’s just a cool pattern. Interpret as you will. #patterndesign #lines #design #art 
I picked up my old @wilson glove this morning and the lettering caught my eye, so I thought I’d do a study on it. Here’s my own spin on these super cool letters ✌️ #wilson #baseball #baseballglove #mlb #lettering #letters #야구 #글러브 
I went for a walk and this bird was staring me down so I drew an unflattering picture of it. #nature #magpie #artorsomething #design #purpleandgreen 
Sneak peek at an upcoming project. More to come soon 👀✌️
