Iconic Women - Madonna

This morning I posted an updated (unfinished) image of this illustration. Well after a few hours work here is the final piece!

I chose the quote "Sometimes you have to be a bitch to get things done" because Madonna is fighter and fights for position in the pop industry hence the boxing ring scenario, so I thought the quote went well with the tough image I am trying to portray in the illustration. Let me know what you think!

Bembo's Zoo - Typography Animations



Bembo’s  Zoo is a flash website with beautiful, innovative alphabet animations. The animations are a kind of typographic game – at first you see the name of an animal, then the letters start swirling around and finally form the shape of the animal itself. Fun for both kids and typography geeks!
Bembo’s  Zoo is also available as a picture book, Bembo’s Zoo: An Animal ABC Book.

Handmade Typography

Recently I came across a blog named Lucky So and So.  The blog is written by Jess Arrington and is inspired by her love of colour. I love this piece of typography that has been made out of sweets. It was featured on  Jason Santa Maria‘s blog. 




























I thought it would also be fitting to show some of my handmade typography. The first typeface is called EdisonBell and is made from a telephone cable. The second is made from outdoor lights and is wrapped around the human body. The third is made from coloured wire. 










You can view more typeface designs and other work on my Website, Facebook Group, or Store.
