Secret 7
This design for Jack Garretts single ‘Worry’ was chosen as part of this year’s Secret 7” gallery and sold at the event to raise money for Amnesty International, I’m very proud that someone felt compelled enough by my design to spend £50.00! I thought the image would work well as promotional material such as a tote bag to be sold alongside or with the record as a limited edition run.

Secret 7 The design for Chvrches ‘Clearest Blue’ was an attempt to fill all the space I had as much of my work has negative white space around it. I felt like this design was fun and did fit the space well but perhaps didn’t fit the song appropriatly. I’ve mocked it up on a t-shirt to be digitally printed as merchandise.

Secret 7 This is my favourite design from this project, it wasn’t planned but a the result of some last minute playing. I’d made this image after painting nude female forms for four hours and then this was the last thing I made before I called it a day. I inverted in on photoshop and it just fit the meloncholy of the track really well, I hoped that this piece would make it in but alas not! I’ve mocked it up as a print as I will be selling this on my etsy after the course.

Secret 7 So this is a crossover from another brief! I’d been working on a series of safari animals and felt like the tiger could be more then just a postcard, I put this together rather quickly and feel like it does need more work but in regards to the tone of the track and the bands artistic material I feel like it works.

Secret 7 This John Lennon image is much more conceptual then my usual work but I felt like the song was so large and also already very visually recognisable to people that it nee ded to be something un-connected entierly . The symbol doesn’t have a meaning but more a feeling and their is something John Lennonesque to the stroke which does validate it somehow. I do like this piece but it won’t be going in my portfolio.

Secret 7 I spent far too long on this piece then I should have. I was really trying to capture the expression ‘A cold drink of water’ or in other words a visually appealing person! I wanted the tone to feel warm and sultry just like the song. As I don’t think it works successdully as a record sleeve, I’ve taken my favourite element, the lime, and mocked it onto sportswear clothing as it’s summery and juicy and I feel appropraite for the current bold trends in sportwear.
