Benvenuto a Carluccio's

Here are some of my notes from Carluccio's Cambridge.  I was eating my food as slow as I could so I could stay and draw for longer... there was so much to see but the waitress didn't understand this!

These are fab.  They are part of a series of lino cuts by Jonny Hannah.

I especially like the marks he has used and the paper he has printed on.

Carluccio's

Im excited about finally getting back to Cambridge tomorrow to study Carluccio's some more.  I want to gather alot of visual information whilst Im there.  I will look at colours, shapes and interesting compositions and I will look at the words around.   The colours and shapes of this packaging reminds me of when I was at Carluccio's last time.  I'll hopefully put up some drawings tomorrow when I get back.

I'm developing a logo for a client, who wants her initials to be in ribbon.  I've got the shape,now for the colour.

Talking of printmaking...

I'm about to start a printmaking course on Tuesday nights,  I want to use the time to experiment and develop my printing.  I have lots of ideas of things to print, so many, its hard to know what to do first.  

I like the shapes of these labels though, and also have some good looking bottles in my studio which could look good printed.

Posters

Had a good days printmaking this week and got the artwork for these posters finished.  I'm liking the colours.
