Chris Murray - The Cavalier Catfish
Art director: Self
Client: Catfish Bar
Description: On the occasion of their first birthday Fitzroy's Catfish Bar partnered with Cavalier Brewing to produce a celebratory Imperial Pilsner. I was approached to create the image for the beer's label and promotions. The finished work was a combination of pen & ink and digital, and along with the inevitable hops and barley, also features a fish-tailed banner, appropriately imperial crowned-border, and King Catfish to lessen the implied praise of monarchies. (Catfish monarchies don't count.) Hurrah!

Rhys Parkinson - Connect
Art director: Self
Client: Personal work
Description: "These illustrations were made using graphite and colored pencil in a photo realist style. The works investigate the notion of the human condition, which can be defined as â€œinescapable features of being human in a social, cultural, and personal context.â€ This can also be understood as the irreducible part of humanity that is inherent and not connected to factors such as gender, race or class. It includes concerns such as the meaning of life, the search for gratification, a sense of curiosity and the inevitability of isolation. Show casing my skill set for rendering, these drawings evidence the mechanics of photography such as lighting, focus and blur; which are then translated into a visual arts context. For me a hand represents who a person is. Our hands are our way of creating, working... living. They allow us to connect, show love, demonstrate aggression, inflict pain, care for our young, take care of ourselves or even produce the most detailed of artworks. I believe a hand can be a symbol for how we relate to one another. Each illustration is A3 (42cm by 29.7cm) full size."
