summer ends

Sooo, finally landed back at home after another long summer mostly spent outside in various fields involving 7 festivals and one european juggling convention.

Had the pleasure to do some Decor work for Symmetry festival and Mischief festival this year, nothing quite beats living in a field for a week, waking up armed with paints and powertools every day.

Symmetry:
inital sketches for 'live stage'

I was later told the live stage had already had a theme decided upon, but they thought the fans could fit in anyhow:

and then I was given a piano to paint as another st
age dressing prop.

Architectural Review

Editorial Illustration for this months Architectural Review, the article is about programming, software and creativity in architecture.
I had alot of fun doing this piece, its an image playing with shape, space and texture communicating abstract digital ideas yet grounded with the use of found and scanned textures/hand made drawings.
