Silver Fruit apon Silver Trees (WIP) Type and Image as Narrative

Still a long way to go on this job but I thought I would share it with you. I’ve always loved the poem called “Silver”, by Walter de la Mare. I can remember hearing someone sing it once and it was the most magical song i had ever heard. It was so other worldly. I thought it would be nice to use it to showcase some of the drawings that I have done, and turn them into another print on demand book with Blurb.

I need to try out some different type selections, and start to introduce some colour. I am about halfway there.

Here is where I am up to, the book will be 15 x 23 cm… this is just a WIP shot to share with you… Of course I really should be working on another project, but it has been really hot and sweaty today, and my head isnt working because I went for a run first thing which has rendered me delerious and now i have literally cut my finger nail off my index finger. Tomorrow will be cooler

THIS IS MY VISUAL LANDSCAPE. THE PLACE WHERE I RECORD PONDERINGS, SITINGS, MEETINGS AND OTHER HAPPENINGS.

I am an ethnographer, illustrator, publisher, graphic designer and educator. I am interested in telling stories with pictures.

I have just written, illustrated and published "What the Hell is Your Problem?" A Kit for Uptight White People.

If you click on the kit in the links section, you can check it out!

I lectured for six years at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology. I also have a graduate Diploma in Education, and a Masters in Cross Disciplinary Design.
I have taught Communication Design at private colleges, and set up the inaugural Communication Design Program for the Box Hill Institute in Kuwait. Most of my past professional design work has involved designing identities for grass roots organisations, such as community health centres, and the Brotherhood of St Laurence.

I am interested in the developing role of Design as an agent for positive social change, around which I centred my final masters project, by designing a "kit for uptight white people", to raise civil engagement.
