Officially graduated, but still working!

My year finally got our results and I have officially graduated - now into the wide world of work. I've been super busy with moving and networking, but here's a few things I've been doing in the meantime.

Image inspired by Maduk's song, 'Ghost Assassin'

Sketching at the hostel (in colour).

I'm currently in London for the New Designer's show this year, so if you see me around - I'll be wearing my badge hat - come up and say hi!

Spectrum Character Design

Hey all! Here are the updated character designs for the three main player characters from Spectrum (a mobile game concept I'm working on). You may have seen the initial designs on my sketchblog, but these are the relatively final images:

Scarlett, the close-range fighter type

Klein, the defensive builder type

Blaine, the long-range fighter type

And a bonus experimental gif of Scarlett! 

My business cards are here as well and we're all getting ready to head off to London next week so might be too busy to update for a little while, but will still be putting up some rougher work on my sketchblog. I'm also going to be doing a giveaway once I've completed 50 pokemon warmups, so keep an eye out!

Business Cards!

It's almost time for our trip to London to meet agents and companies, and the New Designers show is also coming up fast, so most of the class has been working on getting some business cards made up - including yours truly!
Mine are supposed to be varied in style but still cohesive as a representation of what I do and how I draw or visualise. Here are the final designs to be sent off tomorrow:

And on the back of all of them will be this:

 

Some of my classmates reckon the back image is a bit intimidating, but I'm only smiling! I don't really like drawing myself but I am proud of my hat. Also redesigned my website if you haven't seen it yet!

Xmas Update

Hey guys, I've been working on Victoriana most of the holiday so far, but have been posting a few doodles and bits up on my sketchblog. It's going to be a busy Christmas but we'll see how much work I get done.
Here's a coloured sketch to prove I'm still alive!

'Motion' Visual Essay

 Since finishing up the posters I've spent the last week and a half working on a visual essay focusing on motion, and using Parkour / free running as my inspiration. I'm working towards a possible graphic novel final illustration, but thought I'd share a few of my best sketches first:

There are more scans and images of my sketchbook work, process and sequencing at my SKETCHBLOG if you're interested in seeing more.

Gaming A - Z (preview)

Artsfest is approaching, so if you're in Birmingham on Saturday or Sunday the 8th and 9th of September drop by the Art on the Rails to say hi to the wonderful Max and me! Here's a preview of an A to Z of video games I've played which I've been working on for artsfest. See if you can get them all!

And away!

2nd year of Uni is over, just waiting on the results now. Been manic recently - had an interview for an internship at Disney online in London and my sister came down to stay for a week during which we had epic marathons of Game of Thrones (oh yes). Been doing some doodles in the meantime, trying to get back into the swing of things, and this one is what I did while watching '24 hours in A&E', a great TV programme that reminds me of my sister (who's doing nursing). Fineliner, scanned and messed around with colours etc on the PC (although I have a MacBook now, still getting it set up). About an hour's worth of work but hopefully will be posting more later.

Arrivederci amigos!

Doodles from Japan!

The reason for my long absence recently was due to my being in Japan on a much-anticipated holiday with my sister!! We've been wanting to go for years and finally managed to, much thanks to my wonderful mother!  Was too busy sightseeing to do much drawing but here are a few sketches:

Quick Update

Just a quick update to say that I'm not only on blogger (here) but also on Tumblr under the name geegrevesy, to follow some people and to post fanart-y stuff. So if you see some things that look familiar up there, it's me.
I've also set up a Big Cartel account for anyone interested in grabbing some badges/prints, making it easier than e-mailing/paypal. To see what's available check out the Prints and Products page at the top of this blog. The site is http://ggreves.bigcartel.com/.

Now have a doodle page of the current cast of In-Jokes (which will probably increase soon) so that this post isn't just text:

Artsfest!

So after a successful weekend, I have a few photos to share (courtesy of my sister) of my stand. It was incredibly windy, which made things interesting, and threatened rain on and off (though we only got a little shower). Sadly, I didn't get a chance to look around much, but I did meet lots of interesting people!
Hopefully will be back next year too!

Setting Up Saturday

Sunday

My stand, with stuff pinned down with clips and rocks due to the wind!

Design Blog

Hello!

This blog was created by me to keep track of and give information about my artwork and designs. My name is Georgina and I am currently working on a variety of projects. Chief among them at this time are products for Birmingham Artsfest 2010, where I am hosting a small stand as part of the 'Art On The Rails'.

For this I have tailored some of my designs and have been hand-painting them on to t-shirts. I have also been working on various prints and original pieces of artwork, as well as hand-made keyrings and stickers.

In regards to the clothing, as I am an independent designer and will have a limited audience, I am only producing a small number of designs and in limited sizes - these being medium and large in both male and female. However, I am always happy to custom-make a shirt for anyone; please e-mail me (see contact details).

I am also eager to hear what people think of my work, so please feel free to leave a comment!

Happy browsing!
Georgina
