Crikey, this blog is really old now - over 5 years - and some of the websites mentioned no longer work, or change changed. Why not head over to this more recent blog all about Futureproofing graphic design
It's been a while since I last updated the portfolio, and I've been accused of not blowing my own trumpet on the design front. Time to get to grips with what I've learned about the new Jetpack galleries for WordPress to display all the new stuff I've been working on. With lots of new illustrations and website work to add, it's hard sometimes for me to know which items to put up first. My marketing head says the big clients come first. To show the size of the larger companies I work with, but my designer's heart always looks to the most creative project. Then again, these can be one in the same.
Similar to illustration. When working a range of styles, knowing which image to put in front of the other can be something I could easily overthink. Compere the recent Comedy Marathon poster with my own black and white book illustrations. It's style versus speed, depending on the need. Good than that with grid galleries and optimised images, I can show all the newer, and some more established portfolio pieces all at once.
