This advert was designed to go into Ballyhoo’s local Chamber of Commerce printed magazine.

Food Passion is a eating out and food shopping guide for Swansea and the surrounding areas (Gower, Mumbles, Llanelli).
It exists in web and printed form, and I’ve recently finished the graphic design for 2009′s edition. Its the second time I’ve designed the printed guide, which usually takes the form of a 48 page booklet.
I recommend picking one up, they’re very useful and an interesting read, plus this year they have vouchers in the back which can be exchanged for discounts and free gifts at various restaurants around Swansea. Look out for them across the city.
This poster/flyer was created for Swansea based promoters Straydog Music to advertise their upcoming music event. It was designed to work well when printed out at A6, A4 or A3 and to stand out in the busy shop windows and poster spots.
The gig takes place on Friday 28th November at Milkwood Jam, a live music venue based in Swansea City Centre. Milkwood Jam has been open a year this month, so happy birthday to them!
These days, you’re not a real business unless you’re talking about the credit crunch. So I dug up this design from The Colour Mill vaults.
It was created for Cardiff based financial advisor Neil Soundy Financial Services. The graphic design was based on the logo that I had created for the client a few months earlier.
This illustration was designed for Ice Cream Social, a side-project of mine.

Its just about to be printed out on an 8ft by 4ft Vinyl banner, and will be used to decorate the DJ booth in Sin City.
The characters from the illustration are taken from the various flyers that I’ve designed for the night over the past year, the final effect should make it seem like the DJs are “sitting in the ice cream van”. Check back for a photo soon…
As promised, heres a photo of the banner in action:
